Diplo enlists Octavian for chilled banger ‘New Shapes’

Diplo has teamed up with BBC Sound Poll 2019 winner Octavian for a blissful new banger titled ‘New Shapes’.

Drawn from Diplo’s forthcoming EP ‘Europa’, the new melodic offering has been described as “mellow, vibey” track that showcases the French-British rapper’s unique vocals as they float over Diplo’s minimal instrumental.

‘Europa’ is expected to be an ode – or “love letter” – to Europe, the continent where the Major Lazer honcho, found his feet as a DJ and producer, honing his skill at Notting Hill Carnival, Fabric and more.

Tune into ‘New Shapes’ now and stay tuned for more 'Europa' news.
