BAMBII x RIDE WITH ME

"Bambii has created dancefloor-ready jams primed for perfectly timed wheel ups" - FADER
"the life and soul of Toronto’s club scene" - i-D
"Bambii turns a melting pot of influences into a throbbing, futuristic heater, where grime bass stabs intertwine with bashment rhythms." - PITCHFORK
"infectious rhythms" - WONDERLAND  

The musical force known as BAMBII returns to share a brand new single in "RIDE WITH ME." Fully written and produced by BAMBII, the track marks her debut singing on one of her own productions with additional vocals from Tempest featured on the hook. Fusing her Jamaican roots with a worldly sound influenced by Toronto's multiculturalism, "RIDE WITH ME" is a rave love story and an emotional club banger that is a collision of hyper-pop, drill, and breakbeats featuring BAMBII on production and vocal duties.

 The new track arrives following BAMBII's recent co-production on Kelela's latest single "Happy Ending" and her pair of 2021 EPs TWITCH and TRUCK RIDDIM. The EPs featured original instrumental versions of their title-tracks as well as additional remixes. Following an extended stay in Jamaica during the Covid-19 lockdown, TRUCK RIDDIM was BAMBII's first release since 2019's "NITEVISION" feat. Pamputtae.

 Whether online or on dancefloors, BAMBII's political and musical vernacular give credence to dance music's ever expanding reach, the relationships it helps forge between individuals, cultures and spaces.

BAMBII x TWITCH
BAMBII shares a new song "TWITCH." The track's sonics were created to embody the burgeoning, dark dancehall and electronic scene. "TWITCH" arrives coupled with visuals directed by BAMBII and Kosta Kolev depicting a first-person point-of-view journey from a house party to the street where a group of people gather around a shapeshifting, iridescent orb, eventually following it to the water to watch it morph and bubble in the sky.
"TWITCH" arrives after the EP TRUCK RIDDIM released by BAMBII (born Kirsten Azan) earlier this year. THE EP features the original instrumental version of the title-track as well as two remixes, the first with the Jamaican born, Miami based BEAM, who recently featured twice on Justin Bieber's latest album Justice and collaborated with Major Lazer and M.I.A, and the second with Kingston's LatyKim imbuing the riddim with a feminine touch.
