BIJOU & Honey & Badger – Daybreak (Original Mix)

“Daybreak” marks the debut on Monstercat for both BIJOU and Honey & Badger. The Arizona native and Belgian artist use crisp percussion, infectious melodies, and soulful vocals. The tune was put out on Monstercat Instinct, a sublabel of Vancouver based Monstercat.

BIJOU states “When Honey & Badger sent me the original of the song I was going through a break up and really wanted to create something uplifting that would essentially take me into the next aspect of my life. So the vocals themselves really resonated with me as “Daybreak” felt like a new sense of life moving forward. I took that emotion into the studio and allowed it to drive forward and really unleash it into the music. My hope is that the fans and listeners can have a sense of what I was feeling and going through during the production process. This is one of the reasons I feel music is so special as it’s an outlet to allow the fans into my thoughts and feelings through sound.”

“I remember what I felt when I found those vocals,” says Honey & Badger. “I thought they were empowering and uplifting. I’m so glad BIJOU found the perfect production to accompany them. I hope it’ll make listeners feel the same way as I did. The track is definitely deeper and more “emotional” than my previous work, if that makes sense. It’s the kind of track that gets stuck in your head. I love this direction and I’ll explore it more in the future.”

BJOU has played the collaboration on a number of episodes of his radio show since the beginning of this year, including DND Radio 018, 024, 027, 029. It was also played on Monstercat Call Of The Wild 463 where it was the Monstercat Exclusive and 464 where it was the Instinct Spotlight.

Ben Dorman has been behind tracks such as “Covered N Money”, “Saint Tropez” with Zaerd, and “I Know” with MARTEN HØRGER.

Other songs from Alexandre Dumont to check out include his “CIMDIX” EP, “1949” with OOTORO, and his “Connection” EP.
