Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: Tiga & Hudson Mohawke - Love Minus Zero

There may be no more obvious track for me to feature in this weekly sneak peek at Bump In The Hump. Of course Tiga is one of the show's must trusted producers, and it's not the first time he's appeared alongside the versatile Hudson Mohawke (see "Planet E"). However there is nothing quite like "Love Minus Zero."

Featuring a sound they're calling 'hardcore romance,' this new collaboration has instantly become the most talked about production on the planet. Skream, Four Tet, Jackmaster, Jacques Greene, and of course Annie Mac who premiered it, have all shared their support for the triumphant, emo-odyssey that is "Love Minus Zero." As Tiga told Annie during Monday's in depth interview (listen back here), he and Hudson's studio process features a "who can put their hands in the air higher" contest, bonding over letting go of sophistication and pretense. And boy does "Love Minus Zero" ooze with a fabulous freedom, urging its listeners to let go, spread their wings and fly off into the sunset that is the track's sublime, spellbinding synths and swoon-worthy warmth.

A surefire inclusion in this year's best of list, catch "Love Minus Zero" on tonight's episode of Bump In The Hump live from 7-9 PM EDT on Radio Humber or after the fact, as cataloged on Mixcloud here.
