MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Staying true to their vision, Sayaw Records set their sights on a new release focusing on one of the country’s much celebrated indie bands, Taken By Cars. Prior to this, the record label put their debut in motion with a 15-track compilation entitled ‘Sayawan Vol. 1’, released in December 2020. Now, they’re geared to make waves with a fresh take on Taken by Cars’ “Turn of the Tide”, off of their 2017 album ‘Plagues’.
Featuring a heavy lineup of like-minded artists, ‘Taken By Cars – Turn of the Tide Remixes EP’ is decked out to be a perfect summer soundtrack. Local dance music’s finest Herb Cabral, LONER, Drum Choir, Kikoman Antonio, and Mica (UK) joined forces to produce an imaginative and replay-able set to match its source material. Amidst the restraints of the current setting, it offers a little portal to a shared world of music lovers. Come across the waves and find yourselves listening to this wicked new release.
