Cyril Hahn: Debut Single 'Perfect Form'
Cyril Hahn's remixes surfaced online in 2012 and have since gained millions of views and plays across Youtube and Soundcloud respectively.
Earning #1 status on HypeM and an army of loyal fans including Diplo, The XX & Annie Mac to name a few; he was subsequently booked to play across the globe's finest festivals and events... all before putting out his own music.The time has now come for the inimitable Swiss native, Canadian resident to release his debut on one of todays most forward thinking labels - PMR, following his signing to them in February this year.
Hahn's signature bold moves of stripping back iconic tracks, warping and bending them to make some seriously beautiful and atmospheric remixes including Solange 'Losing You', Jessie Ware 'Sweet Talk' and of course the now legendary rework of Destiny's Child 'Say my Name' have proved the perfect, dreamy spring board for this first offering.
'Perfect Form' features the provocative vocals of Shy Girls, a mystical R&B outfit hailing from Portland, Oregon. Led by producer and vocalist Dan Vidmar (Shy Girls transforms into an epic 7-piece band when live), the vocal effortlessly translates Cyril's soulful blend of electronica, pop and R&B. Sultry and reflective it evokes thoughts of that special someone and is likely to be a mainstay on everyone's playlists for the hazy months ahead.
Welcome to the world and sounds of Cyril Hahn.Cyril Hahn feat. Shy Girls; 'Perfect Form' is released on September 9th 2013 on PMR
