Torn Hawk and Willie Burns Collaborate on Upcoming EP
The two producers will release a new record together via Hawk's Valcrond Video label next month.
Berlin-via-Brooklyn producer Luke Wyatt (a.k.a. Torn Hawk, pictured above) and Wille Burns (a former XLR8R podcast contributor) have revealed plans to release a collaborative 12″ in February via Hawk’s own Valcrond Video imprint. Having appeared on a split 12″ for L.I.E.S. together in 2013 (which found Burns operating under his Black Deer alias) and worked together as part of the Circuit, Burns, and Hawk trio in the past, Torn Hawk and Willie Burns have combined their talents again for the three-track Becoming Nice EP. Appearing simply under the artist name Burns & Hawk, the record is said to find the pair “step back into the halls of justice to convince a jury of their peers that openly emotive music is not something to be scared of.”
Official out on February 9 via Valcrond Video, the artwork and tracklist for Hawk’s and Burn’s forthcoming collaborative outing have been included below, while preview clips of the record can currently be heard here.
