Brooklyn-based musician and composer Rachika Nayar announced her second LP, Heaven Come Crashing, due out August 26 via NNA Tapes. It's her second full-length album, the follow-up to last year's Our Hands Against The Dark, and she composed, produced, and mixed it, with additional mixing by Carlos Hernandez and mastering by Black Knoll Studio. See the cover art and tracklist below.
She's shared the first single and title track, which features Maria BC (they also appear on another song, "Our Wretched Fate"). "Heaven Come Crashing" builds to blissful, shimmering, widescreen electro-pop, with Maria's haunting, ghostly vocals adding atmosphere. Watch the accompanying video below.
Rachika has some shows coming up this summer and fall, including a Brooklyn show at Public Records on October 1. See all dates below.
Maria BC just released their fantastic new album Hyaline.
