This version remixed by The Ansion (Kilmarnock’s Jonathan Innes) has since popped in my inbox. His love of Efterklang and The…

Forever – ‘Shamed’
With no real information as to who this, assuming Scott Meadows is the man behind Forever according to a Facebook profile, it doesn’t really make much of a difference as debut track ‘Shamed’ is yet another stand out track for 2015.
