Collard, Raelle, S. Fidelity, and Gabiga release their new single, ‘Stolen’. The collaboration was birthed in Limoux, France at a writing camp organised by Zahlbach Publishing. Raelle – “Four artists, living in three different countries, paths aligned. Connecting on musical influences, each of us were able to bring a piece of their soul to the process. Produced by S. Fidelity, and instrumentation by Gabiga, the sparse beat provides the perfect framework for Collard and I to engage in a melodic dance.”
Gabiga is a Swiss-born music producer and multi-instrumentalist with Brazilian and Italian roots and S. Fidelity is also Swiss-born & Berlin based artist and producer. This track is close to home as Raelle and Collard were raised in the same part of South London bringing that sense of familiarity to the track, which can be heard in the intimate moments that exists within Raelle’s and Collard’s vocal performance, as they express their woes of the anxieties that accompany, loss, love and life.
Collard – “We all came together after only knowing each-other after a day and trusted each-others creativity to make something beautiful. Raelle and I discussed the lyrical aim in depth dissecting the feelings associated with loss of love and how that can leave you unnerved and cynical. We also loved the idea of having these duet moments in the song as we both agreed that duets of male & female vocals have become too rare in today’s music.”
S. Fidelity – “It’s very easy to pinpoint the rare moments when everything just lines up perfectly and creating feels truly pure and effortless. ‘Stolen’ was one of those. The heat of the French sun meeting the dark thoughts in one’s mind, marinating together in a magical way to make you dance.”
Gabiga – “The creation of this track was a seamless process, and I truly believe that this sentiment resonates throughout the song. Our group dynamic allowed us to effortlessly slip into a state of flow, providing an environment where our diverse influences came together, resulting in the creation of something truly distinctive and beautiful.”
