Already friends, Josh Christopher and Melis Soyaslanová were brought closer together when they both emerged from break ups.
Turning their feelings inwards, the two began swapping musical ideas, naming the project IYES. Matching gossamer electronic pop against some rather melancholic themes, the Brighton duo quickly attracted attention.
New single 'Glow' arrives on December 22nd, but you might have already heard of it – it's being given exposure to millions as the soundtrack to the advert for Sony’s latest smartphone, the Xperia Z3.
Beautifully etched electronic pop, 'Glow' comes backed with some stunning visuals. "The idea for the video was for us to look like we’re made from moondust, which we reflect," says Melis. "We wanted something strange and amazing and unexpected that you can’t take your eyes off because you have to find out how it ends. We’re super proud of it."
Clash is able to premiere the video as a special Monday treat. Check it out below.
