Ikonika Unveils New Single "Your Body" From Upcoming Don't Be Afraid EP 'Bodies'


March 25, 2020

Hyperdub mainstay, producer and DJ Ikonika has just announced that she will be dropping a new EP on April 17 called Bodies — and we've already got the project's first single: "Your Body". This will be the revered producer's first release of the year and her second for London-based label Don't Be Afraid following her 2017 single "Oral Suspension".

The same off-kilter rhythms and deep grooves can be heard once again, but "Your Body" suggests the new EP will be a little more club-centric than her last DBA outing. However, as this is Ikonika we're talking about, there'll no doubt be plenty of surprises in store.

The new EP will also feature a new mix of "Roller", a remix of a track first heard on Laurel Halo's DJ-Kicks mix from last year.

The artist also released a statement alongside the announcement where she says: "What do you do when the body has been through trauma? What do you do with a new body? How do you drive it? I want to reconnect my mind to the body. I don't know whose body this is anymore. How do I rebuild my physical strength when I'm so tired? How do I accept this body and care for it? I want to love my body. I want to accept it."

The digital release for Bodies will be available on April 17, followed by the vinyl version on July 17.
