BICEP unveil new DOVE single “CHROMA 009 KR36”

"It’s a dizzying, trance-like track that weirdly reminds me of a lot of the music my mum used to play when I was a kid, particularly North African Gnawa music. That same hypnotic rhythm, that trance you fall into while dancing” Kehina comments on the new single. “I recorded and wrote this a month or two after vocal surgery. It really helped pull me out of my head and reminded me why I love making music in the first place. It helped me imagine a future in something I’d had to step back from for a while."

It’s the second DOVE track to appear as part of BICEP’s ongoing CHROMA project – comprising a record label, a series of curated events, a constantly evolving AV/DJ show, and a unique visual identity created in collaboration with David Rudnick and his Terrain creative studio – with the alias intended as “a place where we can put more singular ideas down, less focused on complete songs and more on experimental concepts we work on in the studio”.

Beginning a little over over a year ago with the release of “CHROMA 001 HELIUM”, the label has since released two singles under BICEP’s B.D.B alias (the collaborative project with Benjamin Damage): “A.L.O.E” and “L.A.V.A”; “Bi83” (as DOVE); and the BICEP tracks “ROLA”, “STEALL”, their collaboration with childhood friend and fellow Belfast-native Hammer, and most recently “TANGZ” featuring ELIZA.
