Jeppe Madsen and Matilde Böcher, previously of Copenhagen based future pop group Battlekat reconvene and start over as duo FAE.
"This is the place we met and from here we can proceed. A crossfade between the two of us." - So reads the one line of text revealed alongside "RUOK", an epic 10 minute long statement of intent from the Danish duo.
Where Battlekat immersed themselves in a rather agressive, tightly wound sound, FAE hit a fine balance of dreamlike chord changes and rave inspired synth lines that build throughout, hitting a euphoric, spine tingling pay-off four minutes into the track. All of this accented by Böcher's instantly recognisable vocal, propelling "RUOK" skywards with effortless grace.
A bold and completely brilliant debut.
