The Dø // Janelle Monae Cover + MYLO Remix Available to Download Now

The Dø are Olivia, the O in The Dø and Dan is the D. The Dø rhymes with ‘d'oh’, as in Do, Re-Mi-Far-So...They’ve already had a Number 1 album in France with stunning debut ‘A Mouthful’, and now France’s best kept secret, The Dø are set to conquer the UK with the release of their sophemore album 'Both Ways Open Jaws'.

With a new single in the works and a handful of stellar upcoming remixes The Dø would like to share these two lovely tracks with you:

Technically accomplished and full of rich orchestration and electronic flourishes, The Dø manage to keep a lightness of touch and an instant pop appeal, no doubt thanks to Olivia’s bewitching vocals and song-writing skills. 

Oliveia veers from the primal, invoking the spectres of Fever Ray and Bjork with the percussion led ‘Slippery Slope’, replete with tribal chanting, and lead single ‘Too Insistent’ with its tirelessly catchy propulsive melody, to the childlike; her sweet vocals offsetting the unsettling imagery on opener ‘Dust It Off’, and the nursery rhyme rhythm of ‘Bohemian Dances’ a little reminiscent of Joanna Newsom and CocoRosie.

Expect to be hearing a lot more of the pair as the year goes on.
