Peking Duk have continued teasing their forthcoming album with new single “Forever”.
The track, which features US dream-pop duo Phantogram, follows recent single “Thrills”, a collaboration with Rico Nasty.
Adam Hyde, one half of Peking Duk, shares: “We’ve been massive fans of Phantogram since we started trying to even construct a beat of any sort when we were young kids, so to have the pleasure of being able to work with them on a song like this is a true honour to say the least.
“This song shows a different side of what we’ve got to offer with Paradise — there’s emotion in the longing, the feeling of yearning, but also enough groove to get your sweat on to. We hope you enjoy listening to it wherever you may be, as much as we enjoyed making it, wherever we may have been.”
On working with Peking Duk, Phantogram’s Sarah Barthel says, “When the guys reached out to ask if we wanted to be part of this track, we were down as soon as we heard it. I recorded my part while I was out on tour, which gave it a cool energy. We are very excited to be a part of this and can’t wait for you all to hear it.”
“Forever” will feature on Paradise, Peking Duk’s new album, which is set for release on August 14th.
