MC Dizraeli Releases New Single 'Madness'

Genre-blending artist Dizraeli wrote his new single 'Madness' in response to 2016 and all of its madness - Trump, Brexit and his own mental meltdown. 'Madness' is taken from his upcoming album, 'The Unmaster', which inception and completion span a period of two years, during which Dizraeli experienced a mental meltdown.

An unsettling anthem for troubled times, the song's howled and wordless chorus juxtaposed with its uptempo verses - signed by Dizraeli's distinctive live drums and synth bass groove - narrates a poignant and painful insight into human anxiety. Playing every single instrument on the track, Dizraeli's vocals are doubled up by singer Leonie Evans' soprano range, while critically acclaimed musician Ewan Bleach's clarinet solo wouldn't be out of place on ECM Records Reto Bieri's 'Music for clarinet solo'.

Dizraeli is known for his work with spoken word artists Kate Tempest and Scroobius Pip. He also hosts his own monthly show on Soho Radio, and he just came back from Mongolia where he recorded a special a documentary for BBC World Service where he met the country's hip-hop pioneers to hear about the music scene shaping the country's future.

'Madness' is a very Bristol sounding single, with echoes of Tricky and Massive Attack, and we hope he album will give us more of this new sound.
