Bicep link up with EIiza on new track, “TANGZ”
Bicep have released “TANGZ”, the latest single from their ongoing CHROMA project. The track sees them collaborate with UK singer/songwriter Eliza.
“We have both been fans of Eliza for years and actually worked on a remix she sang on over 10 years ago now. Her most recent album “A Sky Without Stars” shows an amazing side to her voice and the direction her sound has developed in recent years. The first single “Straight talker” was so strong, it had all the touchstones of amazing 90s neo-soul and r’n’b we loved, but sounded new and fresh," Bicep says.
"We got in touch with a track we had in mind that might work, and then sent her some ideas and she came back with a full vocal. The track really just fell in place when we listened to her first take. We nearly always take the vocals and pretty much start again from scratch, sort of remixing our own demo. We have been messing around in the studio on faster chopped up breaks and this felt like the perfect opportunity to take a track from almost hip hop feeling to full breaks over the course of the song.“
Bicep's CHROMA project comprises a record label, a series of curated events, a brand new and constantly evolving Bicep AV/DJ show, and a unique visual identity created in collaboration with David Rudnick and his Terrain studio.
"TANGZ" marks the fifth release in the CHROMA label series, and follows “ROLA”, DOVE’s “Bi83”, a collaboration with Benjamin Damage (under their alias B.D.B) titled “L.A.V.A”, and inaugural Bicep CHROMA single “HELIUM”.
