\"\"<\/a><\/h4>\n

Electro-pop duo, Polychrome, have recently released lead single \u2018Final Kiss\u2019 from their Polychrome<\/a>\"\".<\/h4>\n

One half of the East-London-based duo, Victoria, tells us more about the duo\u2019s pop influences, what we can expect from their debut album and more<\/p>\n

What is the inspiration behind the single \u2018Final Kiss<\/a>\"\"\u2019? Does the song convey any specific message?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I guess we started off working on the instrumentals, and we really wanted to go in an atmospheric direction. We recently made the video for the song- which will be released soon. We did the video as a final goodbye to the festival called the Secret Garden Party. We recorded the video there and thought we\u2019d do a final kiss to the festival.<\/p>\n

Is there a particular lyrical theme to the songs on your debut album \u2018Polychrome<\/a>\"\"\u2019? What can we expect from the album?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The lyrics aren\u2019t as important, as the tone and atmosphere. Our genre is focused on creating textures and soundscapes, rather putting across a really strong lyrical message.<\/p>\n

The album is a mixture of dream pop, chillwave. It\u2019s chilled out, low-tempo music, with both female and male vocals, and lots of textures and soundscapes. And hopefully, some good song-writing as well.<\/p>\n

What is your personal favourite track from the album? And why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The track called \u2018Dreaming About You<\/a>\"\"\u2019. It\u2019s quite catchy. It\u2019s leaning towards pop music, and I\u2019m really into my pop music.<\/p>\n

If there\u2019s one thing you want people to know about your debut album, what would that be?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s an album everyone can chill out to. It\u2019s the kind of music you listen to when the party is coming to an end, but you still want to feel good. It\u2019s \u2018calm down\u2019 music and I hope it also offers something fresh and new.<\/p>\n

Who are your influences, both musically and on a personal level?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Musically, the Cocteau Twins and personally for me it\u2019s Bjork.<\/p>\n
