PREMIERE: BALTHAZARD & MIK IVY – “PRINCE”

The two Swiss-born, London-based artists have come together to release a joyful, nostalgic single that captures the essence of summer.

Beginning his career as a live drummer, DJ and producer BATHAZARD has had a multitude of careers in one. Finding his sound as a DJ in Switzerland, London, and Paris, working with fashion brands such as Michael Kors and Versace, and eventually coming into his own as a solo artist, his mission has never wavered: to use music as a means to spread hope and love.

Drawing inspiration from the people around him, he evokes a positive energy that is utterly contagious in his sound. Similarly, rising alternative singer-songwriter Mik Ivy has explored a variety of angles within his artistry. Beginning his career at only 17 years old, he consistently pushes the boundaries and surprises listeners with unlikely blends of genres and a soundscape that is entirely his own. Together, the two artists have created something completely captivating.

“Prince” is the kind of song you can’t turn off. As if it were magic, the artists somehow magically capture the essence of summer and inject it into the soul of the single. As groovy as it is nostalgic, “Prince” evokes feelings of graduation parties and new beginnings, warm nights and long drives. Whether singing along or dancing to the beat, the enchanting layers of electric guitars, bass, synth, drums, and vocals will keep you hooked and get you moving.

BALTHAZARD and Mik Ivy explain: “We wrote the song speaking from the perspective of the pretend cool kid, describing what it’s like being the life of the party, whilst not wanting to even be there, a bittersweet yet contagious feeling of euphoria, superimposed with the silky, vintage-inspired musical foundation, which results in an addictive harmony of chaotic yet controlled groove. We wanted to provide a throwback right to the golden age of superstardom and the over-the-top regality of performers from that era.”
