PLAY A BIT CLOSER TO THE FIRE WITH HEKA'S NEW SINGLE "UMAMI"

HEKA is back with their final release of 2020 "Umami". The Bristol-based dark synth group says when you listen to them, think "Robert Smith watching AKIRA in a bubble bath". There's a light-hearted vibe hidden deeply in the darkness that surrounds this band's music. While you dig deep into the lyrics and the dark structure of HEKA's music, you also feel like you can kick back with a beer and talk all night about weird existential topics pulled out of life.  With deep low ends, roaring synth lines keenly panned symbols, and lusty vocals, the new single "Umami" will satisfy any quenched angst you've been trying to tend to. "'Umami' provides a sinister narrative of adultery and greed." Says the band. "Exploring the idea that lust can be irresistible almost thirst-quenching. Playing with fire is fun until you get burned". 

Like a moth to a flame, we are drawn to this new track.
