Hear Set Mo’s brooding new single ‘Nightmares’

Set Mo (aka the collaborative effort of Sydney-siders Nick Drabble & Stu Turner) have shared their new single ‘Nightmares’.

Enlisting Yorkshire-born Scott Quinn, the brooding single kick-starts the first of what’s set to be a hectic year for the duo who have confirmed new music releases on the first Friday of every month.

“We met Scott Quinn for the first time and immediately had a connection” Set Mo tells us of the song written at London’s acclaimed Tileyard. “He’s an amazing songwriter and lyricist not to mention his crazy good voice. We were playing around with the lyrical concept of anxiety as it seemed to fit with the deeper feel of the track, and is something that so many people can relate to. The song then came together in a number of hours. It was one of those sessions when it all happened very quickly and naturally and the entire track was pretty much written that day which we always feel leads to the best ones”.

Of all their impending new music, the duo add – “We spent a lot of time in the studio over the last year really experimenting with different styles and sounds. We went back and spent time listening to some of the very first electronic music we got into as teenagers, artists like The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Groove Armada and Moby. We really love how those artists had such diverse and emotive albums. The result is we have a wide selection of tracks that vary in styles, tempos and moods. Rather than put these all out at once we want to show people the journey we went on creating them, and how the story has developed over time”.
