Alice Longyu Gao, a musician from China, is known for her unique style that often falls into the hyperpop genre, defying traditional categorization. She has previously collaborated with notable musicians like Mura Masa and Alice Glass. Gao is set to release her new mini-album titled Assembling Symbols Into My Own Poetry next month, featuring singles such as “♡ Korean Girls,” “Detective Alice神探埃粒司,” and “Lesbians ♡.” Today, she has collaborated with Danny Brown on a new track that presents a surprising sound.
This year, Danny Brown toured to promote his acclaimed album Quaranta, with Alice Longyu Gao opening for some of his performances. The duo’s new single, “Bird W/O Nest,” is a heartfelt ballad that explores various moods throughout its progression. The song begins with Gao’s delicate vocals accompanied by strings and acoustic guitar before transitioning into a vibrant synth-driven section where Danny Brown shares his thoughts on mental health in his unique style reminiscent of Nelly.
With this release and his recent work with Frost Children, Danny Brown continues to make intriguing artistic choices. He is also scheduled to perform with Knocked Loose on their upcoming tour! “Bird W/O Nest” is an intriguing track worth listening to, available below.
The self-released Assembling Symbols Into My Own Poetry will be available on 10/23, with the music video for “Bird W/O Nest” releasing later today.
