The track comes with the announcement of their forthcoming sophomore album WET TENNIS
Sophie Hawley-Weld and Tucker Halpern, known collectively as Sofi Tukker, have blown up thanks to their genre-bending sound and thoughtful approach to crafting themes and concepts.
Latest release ‘Original Sin’ is a hookworm of a track that is dangerously, maddeningly catchy. Everything from its memorable hook to the effortlessly captivating rhythms that permeate the sound feels perfectly aesthetically pleasing and fun, showcasing all that the duo do best, and continuing to transcend tradition and genre. With their sophomore album WET TENNIS due out at the end of April, 2022 is likely to see Sofi Tukker ascend to even loftier, more unthinkable heights.
The group says, “‘Original Sin’ is the perfect way to introduce the world of WET TENNIS and it’s very emblematic of ” the freak fam”, our community. It says: we aren’t meant to be saints. We aren’t born sinners. We’re just a bunch of freaks who make mistakes and keep trying to do our best. WET TENNIS is an acronym that stands for: “when everyone tries to evolve, nothing negative is safe” and that’s what this song is all about. We live in a troubled world, it’s not our fault if we have trouble sometimes. That’s part of what makes us human. But when we evolve together and celebrate instead of judge each other, we can move through negativity into a more optimistic way of life. “
