Darkwave electronic duo SYLK are set to release their latest single ‘FREAKY’ on Friday 23rd July 2021.
SYLK worked with the leading production company Diffusion Lab on the production of this track.
On the track ‘FREAKY’ the duo said, “We wrote this about the feeling of being somewhere new but it feels so familiar and never wanting the night to end, for us we thought about the feeling of being in a new city like Berlin, Amsterdam, Europe getting ready to go out feeling confident and feeling freaky! We missed this feeling so much during the Pandemic and wanted to create something that would remind us of these nights.“
SYLK are a queer female electronic pop duo based in Dublin, Ireland. Laced with an underground aesthetic SYLK’s (Taylor & Bebhinn) signature sound is distorted, manipulated and lyrically dark. Also behind the duo are the SYLK COLLECTIVE, a group of creative friends who plan the ideas and the future of SYLK, including Fiach who executes the visual identity of SYLK.
Taylor & Bebhinn are best friends who met at a gig when they were teenagers, connecting over their need to make music they knew it was something they always wanted to do, a few years later with more experiences to express and a sound they wanted to create, SYLK formed with the release of ‘Am I Alone’, in 2017, following this was their acclaimed EP ’nwyr’, which led to a full capacity EP launch show, gaining mainstream radio play (including RTE 2FM, BBC, Today FM, SPIN 1038, 98FM, FM104) and standout appearances at Forbidden Fruit Festival, Body & Soul Festival, Hard Working Class Heroes, Electric Picnic, as well as headlining the legendary Button Factory- to name a few.
