Warm Digits
Newcastle duo Warm Digits (Steve Jeffriesand Andy Hodson) have share new single 'Shake the Wheels Off' – a collaboration with indie-dance revisionists, The Orielles. Taken from new album 'Flight of Ideas', released in early April via Memphis Industries.
The disco fuelled'Shake the Wheels Off' is about the moment when those subjugated by archaic systems of control take their power back. The Orielles drummer, Sidonie B Hand-Halford, lent her vocals to the single, she elaborates on how the collaboration came together:
"We were very excited when Andy reached out about us collaborating on some music and even more excited once we heard the demo of the tune and the brilliant concept behind it and the record as a whole!
The references put forward were right up our street so it was easy to sink into this track and make it feel natural to guest on. I was also given the opportunity to add to the song with some lyrics of my own, which I very much enjoyed putting forward and found it refreshing and exciting that both Andy and I (as drummers) could collaborate together on this. Hopefully this will encourage other musicians who perhaps feel they lack some 'limelight' or creative control to write more!"
Warm Digits head out on tour across the UK in 2021.
