It’s been a long time coming, but Belfast-via-London duo Bicep have announced the release of their debut album via Ninja Tune.

The self-titled project was revealed today, along with the first track from the coming project titled, ‘AURA’.

The forthcoming LP has been described by the pair as “loose, raw and energetic enough for the dancefloor, yet refined, artfully composed and contemplative enough for home listening.”

Speaking on the first single from the album, they explain it was “a happy experiment… you might call it an accident”.

“We’d been playing with this specific and very complicated gear-chain for a while but nothing worked, or didn’t feel musical enough… then it all just fell into place and ‘Aura’ appeared.”

Listen to ‘AURA’ below, and mark September 1st in the diary!
