2012 has found Kode9’s Hyperdub label, originally known for their early dubstep 12"s, continuing to expand their remit into electronic pop, with recent albums from Dean Blunt & Inga Copeland, Laurel Halo and Cooly G all offering distinctive and dubbed-out takes on songwriting.
Now they’ve revealed a track from the new upcoming single from Morgan Zarate, last seen releasing the Hookid EP through the label in 2010. Where that found the former Spacek member offering frazzled, bass-clogged takes on R&B, here he takes on the poppier end of dubstep. The results are pretty lovely – the track, entitled ‘Broken Heart Collector’, pairs a fizzy, incredibly detailed production from Zarate with vocals from London-born singer Stevie Neale. You can listen to the track and watch the video, directed by unsung.nu, above.
