Helsinki's Femme En Fourrure get dark and decadent on the restrained club track "Eaten"
With fans in the form of Julio Bashmore and Inga Copeland, Helsinki duo Femme En Fourrure continue their pusuit of the space where the thoughtful and the physical collide on new track "Eaten".
"I had a dream in which I was eaten...again and again...." It's this line which stands out on the b-side to the Finnish act's latest single "Seer", a dark and decadent take on futuristic electropop.
Femme En Fourrure are Sandra Tervonen and Juuso Malin who have been making provactively seductive club music since 2008, the highlights of which are the 2013 album 36-26-36 and last year's excellent Smell EP. They've already ticked off a Boiler Room show and being dropped into a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix so they know their way around a banger as much as the know how to make music to get the brain cells working.
"Eaten" pulses with a filthy gloom, spacious beats allow synths to glide in and out of the track while Tervonen's vocals seduce and snarl in equal measure, winding themselves around the track before snapping back and tightening just at the point they start to feel comfortable. As downtempo dance music goes, this is about as hypnotic as it gets.
The single will be released tomorrow on FEF Corp, but you can listen exclusively to "Eaten" below.
