“In the City” is from Anika EP, a short collection of songs following her debut album, both produced by Geoff Barrow. This is a cover of a song first recorded by The Chromatics. The EP also includes a her version of The Kinks’ lovelorn classic I Go To Sleep and covers of songs by The Crystals (He Hit Me) and Shocking Blue (Love Buzz) as well as dub versions of previous singles Yang Yang and No One’s There. Now based in Berlin, Anika retains strong ties to the Bristol scene where this project began with a coincidental meeting with producer Geoff Barrow and his freeform kraut band Beak>. Barrow was initially on the search for a vocalist for his experimental new group but as the relationship developed it became clear that ‘Anika’ was a collaborative project in its own right. [Source]
