Birdy Nam Nam Outline New EP

Grab a quick preview...

French collective Birdy Nam Nam are set to release their new EP ‘Jaded Future’ on July 17th.

Initially a group of turntablists, Birdy Nam Nam have an open ended approach to music. Literally anything goes, with all manner of styles and genres getting shredded across their decks.

Across four albums the group have built up a massive global following, without ever having a real breakthrough moment. Returning with a new EP, it could be time for Birdy NamNam to make a real impact on the mainstream.

New EP ‘Jaded Future’ is set to be released on July 17th, matching the title cut with remixes from French Fries, Culprate and Skrillex – a sign that the French group are ready to reach a far wider audience.

ClashMusic have been granted an exclusive preview. French Fries stepped in to remix ‘Jaded Future’ and responded with something quite special.

Opening with glitchy, almost jazz-tinged beats the remix develops into a piece of wonky hip hop. Fluorescent synths borrowed from G-Funk litter the track, with French Fries delivering something that can be filed alongside HudMo or Bobby Tank.

Essentially what Simon Reynolds has termed Maximalism, there’s a rugged, playful bounce to the remix which remains strangely infectious.
