If you've been dwelling in the jazz house space, there's a high chance you've had a fair share of your Bolden. experience. The electronic duo teams up with rapper Oliver Rees for the release of their new release titled "Cold nights and city bike rides.". A song that lives up to the expectations set by its title.
The track is the second offering from their highly anticipated debut album, Would appear to be jazz., scheduled for release on August 29th. I actually played this while on a bike ride last night, and it made the whole experience so cinematic and beautifully dramatic. There's something truly captivating about this one. I think it's the way the flute melodies wrap around the raw, soul-searching lyrics that create an atmosphere that's both intimate and mysteriously alluring.
“We collaborated with a local rap artist, Oliver Rees, after catching one of his performances and seeing the potential for something special. The track delivers hard-hitting lyrics - like the line ‘Is it all destined to fade though? Guess I won’t know till the gravestone’ - but it’s also deeply reflective and tinged with melancholy, with subtle glimmers of hope for the future. We really enjoyed creating that emotional contrast, especially by blending the softness of the flute with the raw energy of the rap.", Bolden share.
As soon as the record drops in August, the duo embarks on a tour, so if you have a chance - go see them live.
