LESKY & Waywell - Mesame (LP)

140g black vinyl.
350 g/qm uncoated cardboard cover.

LESKY and Waywell unite again. The German lofi heavyweight and the UK guitarist are back with the sequel to their 2021 EP Whitecaps and another perfect soundtrack to pool parties, imaginary beach cruises and late-night bonfires. Their new album is called Mesame, which is Georgian for “the third”. The title draws on the Indian concept of the third eye chakra that provides higher consciousness and perception beyond ordinary sight and refers to the psychedelic influences surrounding the album’s sound. Mesame is out digitally and on LP. With artwork by Tim Paschedag.

The two expats LESKY and Waywell met in Tbilisi, Georgia where they shared a studio space. Waywell’s deeply soothing guitar riffs and LESKY’s crisp production make for a perfect hybrid sound of cosmic lofi paired with a subliminal yacht rock vibe. LESKY was born in Leipzig but moved to Georgia beginning of 2021 to pursue music full-time. Creating his own soundscape fusing mellow neo soul keys, trap infused beats and samples flipped beyond recognition, he has released three EPs and one full-length album, Meraki, on Melting Pot Music, and several projects on renowned labels like Blue Note Records/Astralwerks and Lofi Girl. Waywell has been self-releasing singles and one EP since 2017.
