Higher Power EP by Black Girl/White Girl

Hybrid Spasm founders Black Girl/White Girl, aka Tahnee Cosster & Karin Barlot, boast an impressive run of releases on Truncate, Super Rhythm Trax, and Hardgroove's sibling label, Symbolism. They have performed at venues including Perron, Radion, Motion, and Good Room, earning a reputation for energetic, groove-driven sets that combine machine-funk Techno with vocal flashes and unexpected turns.

Soul, funk, disco, and hip hop have always fed into our music. The trax on this EP came naturally because this is what we love making, music from the heart. Hardgroove feels like the perfect home for them. Nobody does what Ben does, and he's believed in our music for years. We've always followed our own instincts rather than chasing charts or popularity, and Ben understands that like no other. We want to connect through love, light, and joy, with a lil foolishness thrown in for good measure. That's just who we are. We believe in our path, our individuality, and a higher purpose through music. Music is pure love, and that is the message we wanna put out into the world.
Black Girl/White Girl

With the title track "Higher Power," Black Girl/White Girl juxtapose thunderous drum work with vocal snippets drenched in soul. The versatile "1-800-DIVA" sees the pair utilize more classic sampling as they work the filters, before "Legacy" rolls on via a percussive workout and playful drops.

The No Bleep Mix of "Devotion" then closes, a true groove-first stomper to turn the crowd into a frenzy. Written after a period of hardship following Tahnee's Leukemia diagnosis and the catharsis of her recovery, it's an EP about strength, expertly balanced with plenty of feeling.
