“It’s a Soul Life” embodies the desire to revisit the purity of our inception, Skin Patrol emerged from a love of nihilistic minimalism of The Stooges and The Velvet Underground, One Million Fuzztone Guitars from the confrontational drum-machine beats of early Suicide and Throbbing Gristle, and the DIY synth-world of SoftCell. The song was captured in one unrehearsed seamless live take and later polished with a touch of finesse for the official release, although it remained remarkably powerful right from the raw essence of the original composition featuring the SR18 Drum Machine and Stylophone. The song’s message centres around returning to fundamentals and embracing positivity amidst the chaos of the present times, representing a back-to-basics approach in its message. We love basic!
