GOLD042: MØ

Our infatuation with Karen Marie Ørsted - or on the streets - started late last year at CMJ and has since snowballed into something so much more. The Danish vixen commands this formidable collage of hip pop and electrosoul that sets her apart from literally everyone else in her class. Thus, it's with boundless excitement that we announce our next 7" release, as we team up with our UK brothers-in-arms Chess Club to bring MØ's Pilgrim into the world later this month.

"Pilgrim" arrives in an avalanche of bloodthirsty energy, armed to the teeth with hell-bent horns and brassy nonchalance. While Karen's impetuous voice clouds your judgment like a ghost on fire, the silhouetting harmonies provide a trustfall of clarity every time the crunch drops. On the flipside, MS MR come correct with a deep sløwburner of a remix delivered straight from the darkest recesses of our palest fantasies.

The Pilgrim 7" drops February 25th on Neon Gold in the US and Chess Club in the UK, but preorder is now available HERE. And be sure to check out MØ live next month, as she returns to our shores to hit Popshop NYC on March 7th and Popshop Brooklyn on March 9th, before taking her dazzling charms to Popshop West on March 12th and SXSW. Not. To. Be. Missed.
