Fribourg, Switzerland-based electronic project Djinn & Tone, Inc. can trace its origins to when its founder — Mathias and Marc — met at a super secretive and illegal gathering during the European Union’s second COVID-19 lockdown back in 2020. The pair bonded over common mutual musical interests and decided to collaborate together. Since its formation, the project has continued with Mathias as the main organizer of the project — and the current configuration features local players from the city.
The project’s latest single, the Portishead-meets-industrial electronica-meets-Pink Floyd-like “Pete Génie” is a brooding and cinematic track built around Fanny Corboz‘s yearning delivery, glistening synth arpeggios, a relentless motorik groove, industrial thump and explosive cymbal blasts from Michael Déforné. The result is a trippy yet chilled out track that will transport you to another dimension.
