Bristol duo Icarus have dropped their hotly anticipated new project UNFOLD, out now via FFRR / Parlophone.
Listen below!
Characterised by polished, weightless electronica that's both visceral and drenched in emotion, UNFOLD is undoubtedly Icarus' finest work to date. Opening with title track 'Unfold', a delicate and intricate production featuring vocals from Tim Digby-Bell of Cubicolour, other standouts across its nine tracks include the duo's latest single 'Fade Away', a fluttering soundscape that masterfully incorporates elements of trance and house music, the melodic 'Meet Me There', which features the heartstring-tugging vocals of London singer-songwriter Nathan Bell, and the controlled euphoria of 'Joy'. Elsewhere, UK singer-songwriter Rae Morris lends her soaring vocals to the poppier 'Dreams Of You' and the project's closing track 'Tomorrow' sees Icarus at their most experimental. "The concept for this body of work revolves around transformation, growth and evolution of self," Icarus previously explained. "We currently feel we're at a juncture in our lives both personally and in a career sense. Over the last few years, people have entered and left our lives and we've both been through things that have made us grow significantly as people.Videos
