Dopatine, the new EP from Essex’s Rooskin and London’s Beach for Tiger, is the perfect soundtrack for those laid-back summer nights. It’s a mesmerizing melding of Rooskin’s psychedelic surf pop and Beach for Tiger’s psychedelic soul. “Searchin’ For A Reason” opens the EP and draws you in with its waves of synths, hypnotic beats, laid-back groove and dreamy harmonies (there’s also an instrumental version of this track that closes the EP). The easygoing, soulful “State Of Mind” has a loping surf beat and sounds like the perfect soundtrack for driving around at night with the top down. The somewhat lazy and meandering “Forever This Way” is full of keyboard washes and more incredible harmonies, while the title track is a gorgeous instrumental soundscape that takes elements of the prior songs, but puts more emphasis on really nice textured guitar work. Dopatine is an absolutely stunning set of tunes and hopefully is a collaboration we will be hearing more from.
