Listen: Daphni & Owen Pallett Collaborate On ‘Julia/Tiberius’ Split Single

This might be the first time Owen Pallett’s distinct violin parts have been placed so neatly into dark, heady electronic music. Daphni (aka Dan Snaith bka Caribou) is linking up with the soloist for a special split single, ‘Julia/Tiberius’.

Both sides are streaming now, with the Oscar-nominated composer opening ‘Julia’ with dagger-sharp violin-led hooks. It’s then set alongside wonky bass notes and deathly atmospherics, like licking tar from a block of ice.

The split single is due via Snaith’s Jiaolong label in ‘a week or so.’ Stream both sides together, below.
