December 28 of 2017 we've lost one of Spring Tube's leading artists and simply our good friend for years - Rishi K. He was visiting his father in Jordan, both are died when their car collided with a lorry on the Suweimeh-Dead Sea Road. We extend our most sincere condolences to Rishi's family, friends, and fans. With Spring Tube's 236th outing we present you the last release by Rishi K. on our label - "Through The Night". This EP includes his two exclusive original works that he signed us ten months back, as well as two remixes on the title track. First interpretation is provided by our veteran artist and label's constant mastering engineer - Domestic Technology, it's his first new work after a year of hiatus, and it's quality as always from this proficient producer. Whereas the second remix deliver our longstanding residents - Blood Groove & Kikis. Rishi asked us about the remix from these guys a couple of last years, this remix was our surprise for him, and we're sure he would be happy about it, - this version is a real masterpiece. We've contacted Rishi's closest friend Eric (who was with Rishi and his father in the same tragic car accident, and survived), he helped us to connect with Rishi's brother Tamer who generously seconded our idea (with support from Blood Groove & Kikis, Domestic Technology, and B-Max) of giving all proceeds from sales of this release to charity. Eric and Tamer suggested that we can donate to non-profit organization MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies). Rishi interned there during graduate school and also wrote his master's thesis, supported by MAPS, on using syrian rue to treat depression. Rishi and Eric have numerous talks over the years on the promise of psychedelic medicines to treat depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, and many other psychological illnesses. Rishi would be happy to know that his music will funding this organization, if even with a little contribution. For helping this our donation you can buy a copy of this release or at least one track from it. Any your support is welcomed, and we all would be thankful to you for it. R.I.P. with LOVE, RISHI.
