The new Belgian artist Tsar B released her first track ‘Escalate’ late last year. The song’s chopped and screwed atmospheric electronic style has an Middle Eastern influence with FKA Twigs-style scattered minimal pounding beats.
Today, a video shot by Maximiliaan Dierickx in Lisbon accompanies the song. “The hunt of the dark creatures and the fearlessness of the mystery dancer reflects the power within the song” Tsar B says of the video.
‘Escalate’ has been added to the Nialler9 New Music Weekly playlist. The song is also on iTunes and Apple Music.
