Vök released an EP in 2014, ‘Tension’ through the Icelandic label Record Records. The EP caught international media attention with New York Times saying: “Vök share the xx’s slow tempos, whispery female vocals, sparse but echoey bass lines, and melancholy questions...

The band released their latest EP ‘Circles in the spring of 2015. First single ‘If I Was’ was picked by international media and radio stations and was followed by second single ‘Waterfall’ along with great visuals.
March 2016 Vök will tour several countries in Europe.
CUT_ is an Amsterdam based electronic music duo consisting of producer Sebastiaan Dutilh and vocalist Belle Doron. You can hear that their music is a response to the English trip-hop and dub sound of the past decade where they add a personal and fresh twist. Acts like Burial, Mount Kimbie, Massive Attack and James Blake are great sources of inspiration. They gained world fame when their version of Stromae’s ‘Papaoutai’ went viral. Even the French maestro himself was enthoustatic about CUT_.
