Justice have unveiled their funky new single ‘Saturnine’ featuring Miguel – listen to the track below.
The French electronic duo announced their comeback album ‘Hyperdrama‘ earlier this year, which will be their first full-length album in seven years. ‘Hyperdrama’ is due April 26 via Ed Banger Records – presave/preorder the record here. Having released three singles so far, including March’s pulsing ‘Incognito‘ and Tame Impala banger ‘One Night/All Night‘, Justice have now shared the latest teaser of their album.
‘Saturnine’ features R&B singer Miguel, who says he has “been friends with Xavier and Gaspard for some years now so to finally work together and get a great song has been the best experience. Merging our sounds felt effortless.”
Justice also added that “we don’t think we’ve ever made anything that sounds remotely like this track before.” “It started with Gaspard playing around with an E-mu synthesiser guitar sound, and he found the main riff,” they said. “The rest came very quickly.”
“We love Miguel’s voice when it’s raw. We wanted him to sound outrageously frontal, with no space around his voice. We felt confident we could make this work with a single mono take of his voice, and minimal processing. It also suited the theme of the song, that’s this sort of fear and loathing in Las Vegas sweaty, hallucinatory flow. Feeling well in feeling bad.” Listen to ‘Saturnine’ below:
