The different sensibilities nurtured by their disciplinary specialisms (Taylor took electronic and produced music, while Georgia – who is also a member of Black Country, New Road – specialised in jazz violin) create a unique approach to collaborative composition.

This particular style is something the pair have honed to growing acclaim in a series of tracks and EPs since they began their collaboration while studying at Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where they took different pathways on the elite and highly selective Bachelor of Music programme, graduating into a pandemic.

This eclectic collection combines ethereal vocal and lyrical experimentation with a pop-inflected electronic production that is at once very similar to other things (there are faint traces of something like Madonna, Skrillex, Lily Allen, the poems of Sylvia Plath, a Pixar movie score), and yet also absolutely nothing like anything you’ve heard ever before.
I have met with Taylor and his bandmate, vocalist and lyricist Georgia Ellery, to discuss the release of their debut album, I Love You Jennifer B. Taylor Skye is an electronic musician and producer, one half of the duo Jockstrap. In the background there is the hiss of steam from a coffee machine, the clatter of cutlery against crockery, the low mumble of other people’s chatter and the grinding of wheels from traffic moving on the tarmac outside the open café door.
“You know, lots of John Cage pieces are about listening to the sounds around you rather than making your own music, and I was convinced that was the best way to live your life.” He puts his fork down and grins. He pours a cup of tea from a pot, taking a sip before he continues. “I was introduced to the composer John Cage at music college and it just changed my perspective on things.” The only acceptable tickets for entry at this venue are purchased through Eventbrite/TIXR, and in some cases, Resident Advisor.“For a long time, I couldn’t make music,” Taylor Skye tells me over breakfast in an East London café. Additionally, tickets purchased from a third party will not give the buyer access to the ticket and its benefits. Consequently, tickets purchased from these sites WILL NOT be valid for entry.
