about

Fans have been waiting patiently for acclaimed Australian electronic trio PNAU and New Zealand’s Ladyhawke to collaborate and make magic once again and their new single comes not a moment too soon. ‘River’ is here to wash away the stress of 2020 and move into the new year with a feeling of rejuvenation and rebirth. ‘River’ follows on from PNAU’s two recent ARIA Award nominations, including a nod for Best Australian Live Act, and will be dropping on December 11th via etcetc.

An homage to PNAU’s roots in the rave and progressive scenes of the late ‘90s and 2000s, ‘River’ delivers a nostalgic edge with the contemporary finish PNAU have masterfully crafted over the years. The track explores themes of renewal and rebirth, with a bassline getting us ready to dance our way into the new year. PNAU have a long history with Ladyhawke as she featured on their seminal track ‘Embrace’, to this day a fan favourite and eternal festival anthem, and also collaborated with Nick Littlemore on their Teenager project.

“’River’ came about when Ladyhawke came back into the PNAU fold,” explains PNAU’s Nick Littlemore. “It seems every time we’ve collaborated with her it’s been incendiary. We met a long while ago; within moments of meeting it was clear we had a deep connection. Ladyhawke has a remarkable voice and her creativity is second to none. It’s her humour and humility, her ability to cut through to the listener, that makes you feel like you are experiencing something for the very first time. This tune is a combination of Ladyhawke’s brilliance and the inspiring work of Sam and Peter. I really believe this song is the living proof of magic; all the elements coming together just right. I hope with all sincerity that you experience the joy we did in making it.”

Ladyhawke adds, “Years after doing ‘Embrace’ with the PNAU guys, they approached me again to maybe try something new. I’ve always had a unique connection with Nick Littlemore so knew whatever we made would be special. I remember standing in Nick’s LA home studio screaming into a microphone being egged on by him yelling “Louder!!!!” so I could get the “Riveerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr” just right! I love this track and am very excited to be involved.”
