Gearing up for their upcoming conceptual 10-track album ‘King Ruiner’ set for release in 2017 with confirmed showcases at Eurosonic and SXSW, Portugal-based electronic producer Bruno Miguel aka :PAPERCUTZ teamed up with vocalist Catarina Miranda on new single ‘Trust/ Surrender’ which we are able to bring you today.
‘Trust/ Surrender’showcases :PAPERCUTZ’s ability to create warm, smooth synth-scapes with a cinematic touch and lyrical depth, sharing appeal for fans of Bat for Lashes, Fever Ray, Zola Jesus and Glasser.
Bruno explains: “On 'Trust/Surrender', the tension between doubt, joy and wonder is more present than ever and the high energy track showcases the band lyrically dealing with the illusion of control and the acceptance of uncertainty. Sharing a bond with past works, the organic electronics 'Lylac', cinematic experimental ambient 'Do Outro lado Do Espelho (Lylac ambient reworks)' and dark epic percussion of 'The Blur Between Us', we found inspiration in traditional tribal music with a focus on recordings with choral like qualities. African music in particular carries such a forceful and celebratory strength that serves as the perfect background for the album’s narrative about the struggle and anxiety when finding your way through broken ambitions. Trust/Surrender' is a song about the illusion of control and embracing uncertainty”.
