TRZTN has released a new track called “Hieroglyphs” from his soon-to-be-released album, Royal Dagger Ballet. The song features Karen O, while the new video stars dancer Victoria Dauberville.
Pitchfork.com reports that TRZTN's real name is Tristan Bechet. He first worked with Karen O on the Where the Wild Things Are soundtrack in 2009.
TRZTN said, “Without holding back, I embarked on a phantasmagorical way of production—sculpting sound more than composing conventionally. I recorded clangs and digital white noise. I re-shaped her voice, deformed the structure, and resampled her own vocals creating the main staccato vocal theme. The track disintegrates and falls back together like the push and pull of a rubber band stretching.”
Royal Dagger Ballet will be released on Friday (Jan. 22nd). Other special guests on the project include Paul Banks of Interpol and Muzz, Jonathan Bree, YESH, and Eiko Hara.
