Electronic music at its most profound creates worlds rather than just sounds, and there’s no universe that expands with each listen quite like BICEP‘s.
The Northern Irish duo today revived their DOVE project for a haunting new single, “CHROMA 009 KR3,” a crystalline collaboration with Kehina. The alias has always been BICEP’s sandbox for abstraction, and this release suggests they’re drawing from deeper emotional reservoirs.
Typically known for turning warehouse euphoria into a kind of spiritual journey, BICEP trade the grand crescendos of Isles for a darker, more hypnotic sound in “CHROMA 009 KR36.” Like a long-lost reel of VHS footage, the track is grainy, intimate and eerily soothing.
Kehina’s lilting vocal swells glide atop BICEP’s textured synthscapes in the track, the second DOVE single to drop as part of the duo’s ongoing CHROMA project. There’s a melancholic glamor to it, like stumbling out of a festival at 4am and finding the world still turning in soft hues.
