NYC pair SOFI TUKKER have released their second single "Matadora"
The track is an "interpretation of a poem by the Brazilian poet, Chacal", and features traditional Andean instrumental the Charango - it's not your usual banger, at least not in the English-speaking world.
Alongside massive parping bass stabs and rippling beats, "Matadora" a soaring dance tune that ignites total euphoria with its uncompromising rhythms and conjures visions of South American sojourns high on the mountaintops.
The single is released 15 January on streaming services.
Listen to "Matadora" below.
