Hackney duo Georgie & Joe make their debut on new single ‘Student’.
The pair have been causing a buzz for a while now, with East London’s network of producers and songwriters citing their names as ones-to-watch for 2024.
Snapped up by Foundation FM’s in-house label, the two are ready to take steps in a forward direction. Out now, new single ‘Student’ rides an exuberant beat with UKG inflections, their pop potential clear from first note to last.
Frisky, tongue-in-cheek, and deliciously fun, ‘Student’ melts together a spacious atmosphere with a neat synth line, one that burrows its way into your subconscious.
The pair take controls themselves, with Bullion on additional production and mixing.
Joe goes a little deeper on the song…
“We were playing around on a synth and came across that organ sound. As soon as we started playing a riff, Georgie was improvising the line ‘I got a song that’ll make you sweat’. It just felt right. We wanted that contrast between a spacey, eerie atmosphere and a beat that calls you to dance. We called it ‘Student’ because we were in Berlin and that day we’d learned the word ‘Studentin’. The song came quickly, a feeling of wanting to dance and to be in love.”
Tune in now.
