Tycho and Benjamin Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie & The Postal Service recently shared a landmark new collaboration with single “Only Love,” followed by a high-energy beat-based remix from Austin-based producer, DJ, pianist and activist LP Giobbi. Today, a final version of the track is offered up, in collaboration with Brijean.
Brijean are Oakland-based duo Brijean Murphy and Doug Stuart, who make dance music for the mind, body and soul. They released their debut album Feelings on Ghostly International in February 2021.
Speaking on the new track, Murphy comments: “We [Doug and I] are fans of both Tycho and Ben Gibbard and it was wonderful to dive deep into ‘Only Love’. We combined some of Tycho’s rich synth-driven melodies with Brijean and Gibbard’s vocals, creating a lush, house-leaning world.”
Tycho’s Scott Hansen adds: “Brijean’s album ‘Feelings’ was one of my favorites of this year. I was hoping we’d find a way to collaborate eventually so I’m very happy to share their beautiful take of Only Love.”
