Ikonika has shared her new track ‘When You Look At Me’.
The producer’s ever-creative run continues, fresh from a number of self-releases tracks, and a single on the revered Club Djembe imprint.
Her new EP ‘Bubble Up’ is incoming on Hyperdub, a label she’s developed a close association with over the years. The incoming five-tracker will be joined by a full Bubble Up live set, which she recently aired at Berlin’s Panorama Bar.
Out now, ‘When You Look At Me’ is a self-proclaimed queer love anthem, and it speaks to the immediacy, and sheer joy of the club experience. Linking house textures to rhythmic aspects prompted by the wave of energy within amapiano, the track joins the dots between some of Ikonika’s key creative fascinations.
A potent return, ‘When You Look At Me’ revels in attraction, in the simple connects that exist between us. Switching it up once more, the pop-edge – the vocal itself is hella catchy – allows Ikonika to sneak in some complex ideas.
Check it out now.
Ikonika will release her ‘Bubble Up’ EP on November 25th.
