Sincopat proudly unveils a significant release that represents a new chapter in the sonic evolution of AFFKT. ‘Bitters and Bread’ is the result of a vibrant collaboration with Island Hill, blending soul, poetry, and electronic elements into a genre-defying experience that speaks from the heart and moves the body.

More than just a track, ‘Bitters and Bread’ is a distinctive statement a reflection of artistic maturity and a willingness to transcend boundaries. The piece layers organic warmth with electronic finesse, where emotive vocals and rich instrumentation of Island Hill blend with AFFKT’s signature production style. It feels both intimate and expansive, personal yet ready for the dancefloor.

To elevate the narrative, two remixes reshape the original track into compelling new forms. Darlyn Vlys infuses the piece with a seductive, analogue-driven groove, injecting late night energy and subtle nostalgia. Meanwhile, Agustin Giri offers a more introspective interpretation, drenched in atmosphere and guided by deep, textured rhythms a slow-burning journey that resonates long after the final beat.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Darlyn Vlys’ remix of ‘Bitters & Bread,’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
