Two of the most innovative producers in electronic music have something special up their sleeves.
RL Grime and Baauer today unveiled a project called HÆRNY, which seems to be a nom de plume for new collaborative music. According to an announcement by the former, the duo are set to drop a new single this Friday, July 30th. They took to social media to share a preview of the track—tentatively titled “Fallaway”—and if the clip is any indication, it sounds like fans can expect a drum & bass banger.
A new website developed for the project tells the fictitious backstory of the alias, which revolves around a “killer truck named HÆRNY.” The site also features a scannable QR code that diverts users to Instagram, where they can capture content with a custom HÆRNY-branded AI filter.
