We may be fast approaching Christmas, but that doesn't mean we can't all get a little tropical and pretend it's still summer. To help, check out the Gigwise premiere of 'Ribbon Ribbon Ribbon', mixed by David Wrench by Jape below. 

Featuring Conor O'Brien of folk stars and previous Mercury nominees Villagers, 'Ribbon Ribbon Ribbon' makes for a lush and textured piece of sonic architecture. 

"Conor and I had been threatening to make a track together for ages but we were always too busy or something, eventually he came over to my house and brought his 808 and we had an amazing night of making this track together," says Jape. "The lyrics in this one are very special to me. It was exciting to have David Wrench mixing it and hearing where he could take it."

Conor O'Brien added: "It was a magic night recording Ribbon. We laid down a beat and just took it from there- adding layers of synth as it felt fit. I can't really remember anything specific about the recording except for a prolonged feeling of giddiness and excitement. And beer and salmon."
