Los Angeles independent artist Kelela is set to release the long awaited follow up to her debut album/mixtape, Cut For Me released back in late 2013. It’s not that she hasn’t been busy in that period releasing a single in 2014, ‘The High’, which appears here and partipating in a number of collaborations. Titled Hallucinogen, the six tracker was originally slated for a May release but the perfectionist in Kelela felt “it wasn’t there yet”. One of the changes is the addition of the neon tinged minimalism of ‘Rewind’, produced by Kelela herself along with erstwhile collaborators Kingdom and Nugget. We’ve also included the video for first single, ‘A Message’ co-written with Arca. Hallucinogen is out October 9 on her own label Cherry Coffee and Warp Records. Pre-order here.
