Evy Jane have just launched their new video, for the song “Closer”>
The Vancouver electronic duo of Evelyn Jane Mason and Jeremiah Klein have signed with Ninja Tune for the release of their upcoming release. “Closer” is the first track released by the group since its February 2012 debut EP on Canadian imprint King Deluxe. That EP’s track “Sayso” earned Evy Jane a Pitchfork Best New Track and praise from XLR8R, Resident Advisor, Dummy, FACT and more.

The press release describes “Closer” as “a continuation of the duo’s icy experimental R&B as if seen through the kaleidoscopic lens of fuzzy hallucinogens, and is merely the start for Evy Jane’s upcoming year.”
Dazed, which premiered the video, describes it thusly:Â “Vocalist Mason is the solitary figure bearing a double rainbow’s worth of CGI effects, with her silken vocals enshrined in FX within de-clawed percussion, near-baleful synth beds and inquisitive palpitations of keyboards. It casts a spine-tingling, icy pall over you on every play.”
