Lately Chris Baio (Vampire Weekend, Baio) and Mike Greene (Fort Romeau), the duo known as C.Y.M., has emerged from a half-decade of dormancy and begun releasing new singles. They started with a pair of electronic instrumentals, then gave us a Cherry Glazerr collab. All of those songs will be on C.Y.M.'s self-titled debut album, newly announced today for release next month.
For C.Y.M., Baio and Greene took inspiration from producer-driven late-'90s alt-electronic classics like Air's Moon Safari and UNKLE's Psyence Fiction. With the UNKLE reference in mind, the album has a handful of guests besides Cherry Glazerr including SOLIS4EVR, Nana, and — on today's new single "Life Of Mine" — landfill chillwave favorites Day Wave. The song comes with a video by Tom Mull that you can watch below.
