Amber Bain's released "Good Side In", another track from her upcoming Swim Against The Tide EP as The Japanese House.
"Good Side In" follows the EP's title track and "Face Like Thunder" in previewing the upcoming release. It's another stellar offering from the producer/singer, with gentle acoustics and distorted electronics melting together in a beautifully bittersweet nugget of pop bliss.
Bain is currently on tour across the UK, Europe, and North America - find out more and get ticket details on her website.
The Swim Against The Tide EP is out 11 November via Dirty Hit.
