‘Burning Sugar’ is the new single from Silicon – the new project from Mint Chicks/Opossom frontman Kody Nielson. ‘Burning Sugar’ is the second single taken from Silicon’s debut album Personal Computer. Out globally on Aug 28 through Weird World/Domino/Universal Music.

Cultivating his own distinct brand, Silicon has been introduced by the svelte machinations of lead single ‘God Emoji’ where sumptuous electronics meet magnificently harmonized, vocal confections. The aesthetic solidifies and expands with ‘Burning Sugar‘, a Stevie Wonder like development on the sophisticated funk.

A prodigiously talented multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and producer, who remains resistant to any kind of easy pigeonholing, Kody Nielson may well have concocted the purest distillation of his hyperactive musical brain yet, in the shape of Silicon. Created in the small hours when the energy is strong, Silicon sends out pulses of warped, genuinely soulful, retro-futuristic electronica that smudges the lines between human warmth and disembodied voices from the machine.
