This track just feels so fresh. Found on the A-side of the first release from Israeli record label Malka Tuti, Tel Aviv-based artist XEN utilises her intriguing, monotone vocal style so effectively with the slow rhythmic bass guitar and psychedelic synth melodies to create a beautiful sense of tension. It's quite intoxicating.

I also love it when a track has the versatility to appeal to you in totally different situations, it's not an easy thing to do. Whether at 5 AM in a dark, smoky club or on the train home from work, it will still grab you.

This nu disco, krautrock, post-punk electronic blend from XEN is one I can definitely get down with and I can't wait for her next release.
