Chores continue their winning streak with a new killer track,
Vampire Teeth, feat. EYE SAK MAC.
The track has had first-play spins on George FM (New Zealand) and Triple J
(Australia) and now has been featured online at
Dancing Astronaut. A beat-driven, uplifting tune,
Vampire
Teeth delves into new sonic territories for Chores and showcases the
duo to be one of the most progressive acts on the Kiwi dance scene right now.
“We are always trying to develop our sound and
Vampire Teeth is very much about pushing
boundaries. Its vibe pays homage to the nu-disco music we grew up listening and
partying to, band such as Van She, Hot Chip and Chromeo.”
Vampire Teeth features,
and is co-written by, EYE
SAK MAC (AKA
Isaac McFarlane) - a New Zealand songwriter and vocalist, best
known as one half of guitar pop band Two
Cartoons and founder of Daddy’s
Records.
Also sharing songwriting duties with Chores and McFarlane is Alex Wildwood,
known for his indie projects
Shakesand Beeches.Wildwood also produced the track and has a lengthy and esteemed list of production
credits to his name, including
Sachi,
NÏKA and October.
Together Chores,EYE SAK MAC and Wildwood demonstrate a flair for songwriting, pairing quirky pop with catchy-as-hell
hooks and melodies, with compelling lyrics. “
Vampire Teeth is a metaphor about the girl
who you wished you loved, but really she’s the girl you only like spending time
with because you don’t want to be alone.”
Vampire Teeth is the latest in a string of hit singles released by Chores. Their last
track,
