Sexy, Seductive, and “Trapped”: Canadian Duo Release Provocative Single

Barbette Record’s latest single from Deanne Matley (feat. Azawka) offers a glimpse into a world of love, lust, frustration, pain, and the pursuit of cathartic release.

After a chance meeting in Montreal’s Mile End, Deanne Matley (a professional jazz vocalist from Calgary), and Alex Cook (a rock/hip hop-inspired drummer and producer from Halifax who performs as Azawka) quickly became friends.

When they both relocated to Montreal, Alex and Deanne decided to live together as a way to support and inspire each other as they established themselves in the city.

Although a collaboration project was not part of the original plan, it developed intuitively and naturally produced deeply satisfying results.

Recorded with the forever-funky Franky Selector at his studio in Old Montreal, their new single “Trapped” is a provocative ode to self-determination that combines Deanne Matley’s powerful vocals and lyrics with Azawka’s unique brand of electronic music composed solely on the Novation Circuit.

When you listen to “Trapped”, Morcheeba meets Portishead with a creative twist!

Sexy, Séduisante et “Coincée”: Duo Canadien sort un single provocateur

Le dernier single de Barbette Record (avec le producteur Montréalais Azawka) offre un aperçu d’un monde d’amour, de luxure, de frustration, de douleur et de soulagement émotionnel.

Après une rencontre fortuite dans le Mile End de Montréal, Deanne Matley et Alex Cook (Azawka) sont rapidement devenus amis. À l’époque, Alex venait de déménager d’Halifax, en Nouvelle-Écosse, et Deanne vivait à Calgary tout en se rendant régulièrement à Montréal pour enregistrer et jouer.

Rapidement, Deanne prévoyait de déménager à Montréal elle-même, alors Alex et Deanne ont décidé de vivre ensemble afin de se soutenir et s’inspirer mutuellement alors qu’ils s’établissaient à Montréal. Deanne, chanteuse de jazz professionnelle de Calgary, et Alex, un batteur et producteur inspiré du rock / hip hop des Maritimes était un match improbable. Mais l’accord de colocataires s’est avéré fructueux. Bien qu’un projet de collaboration ne faisait pas partie du plan initial, il s’est développé de manière intuitive et, naturellement produit des résultats profondément satisfaisants.

Enregistré dans le studio du funky Franky Selector dans le Vieux-Montréal, leur nouveau single “Trapped” est une ode provocatrice à l’autodétermination qui combine habilement la voix et les paroles puissantes de Deanne Matley avec le son unique de la production électronique d’Azawka.

Lorsque vous écoutez “Trapped”  c’est la rencontre de Morcheeba et Portishead avec une touche insolite.

LYRICS

Verse:
Wounded and weak, the days go by
Reaching for you, were we a lie?
Each inside thought baby, I can’t deny
Waiting for you to come inside

Verse:

Lonely without you, too tired to fly
Heart dipped in blackness, a chain around my thighs
My nails want to dig, deep into your back
I’ll sin again if you would only give me the chance

Chorus: 

Cause I don’t want to be a good girl anymore
So stroke me, unfold me and make me moan
Free me from this cage of prison misery
And spread my wings so wide that I can barely breathe…

Verse: 

Pick me up fast, seduce me under your spell
Place your lips upon my chest, feel me go frail
Breaking all my rules, that’s why I’m trapped this time
But I would do it all again just to feel alive

Chorus: 

Cause I don’t want to be a good girl anymor
e
So stroke me, unfold me and make me moan
Free me from this cage of prison misery
And spread my wings so wide that I can barely breathe…

Cause I don’t want to be a good girl anymore
So stroke me, unfold me and make me moan
Free me from this cage of prison misery
And spread my wings so wide that I can..barely breathe Breathe…Barely Breathe
