Newly formed electronic London-based quartet Jet-G have released their sophomore single, ‘Give Me Air’ on the 7th of October via Future London. Jet-G is the acronym & collaboration between electronic producers Jolliffe, female vocalist ECKOES, Modestep’s founding member Tony Terror and GENTRY. Global chart-topping electronic bass duo from London, Modestep have received global recognition for their unmistakable sound, with support from The Guardian, Billboard, Vulture, Music Radar, EDM.com, DJ Mag, Insomniac, Dancing Astronaut, EDM Sauce and Run The Trap to name a few as well as appearing in BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Live Lounge set. ‘Give Me Air’ follows the band’s debut single, ‘Heartbeat’, a collaboration with the Japanese drumming troupe KODO and Resident Advisor, which appears on a compilation album alongside SKREAM, Simian Mobile Disco and Rufus Wainwright.
On an epic journey to capture the zeitgeist of London, Jet-G find inspiration in the likes of Portishead, Hans Zimmer, Massive Attack, Bjork. The broad backgrounds of each artist involved paired with forward-thinking production and writing styles means that their sound calls to mind a unique mix of the vocal stylings of Bjork and London Grammar and the production stylings of Portishead and Aphex Twin. The quartet is comprised of Jolliffe (on synth, programming and production), ECKOES (on vocals and production), GENTRY (on Piano, synth and programming) as well as Terror (on synth, programming and production).
