The Chainsmokers – KANYE (feat. SIREN)

“Beats are where the magic’s at”, says SIREN, an LA based indie-pop duo (Skyler Stonestreet and Kat Ostenberg) with a penchant for rap music. You may know them from their debut stunner “I Think I Like You” which premiered right here at TMD back in April. After three days on top of the hypem charts these modern day Indigo Girls had their own Cinderella moment. Their lives have not yet changed since signing with Warner Brothers Records earlier this summer but the perks have certainly been nice! Topping that list is having their song produced by The Chainsmokers and premieried just yesterday on Buzzfeed.

KANYE was written by SIREN and close friend/producer Mike Del Rio, in a euphoric state of admiration caused by years of failed late night freestyle sessions to various 808s & Heartbreak instrumentals. “Kanye cares and believes in everything he is saying. He puts things out in the universe and makes them happen and it is super inspiring. His name should be Kanye ‘manifest’ West. Kidding/not kidding ha!”, remarked SIREN in a rare email interview late last night. When asked what it was like working with The Chainsmokers, the duo replied “We expected their kisses to taste way more like cigarettes. JKJKJK…they are hilarious dudes…but no make out sessions…(not yet anyway).”

Between collaborations with international DJ superstars, SIREN spends most of their time in Los Angeles’ Paramount Studios laying down their upcoming record, to be released by Warner Brothers Records this fall. Until then, enjoy your summer and follow all the sexy behind the scenes SIREN drama on Instagram @wearesirensound.

VIDEO PREMIERE: SIREN – I Think I Like You

[TMD EXCLUSIVE] Last week we had the honor of premiering brand new LA duo SIREN‘s massive debut single, “I Think I Like You”. Since then it’s gone on to hold down the #1 position on Hype Machine and basically light the internet on fire. The people have spoken and they desperately want more. Details have been scant on this scintillating pop duo. What we know is that Kat Ostenberg and Skyler Stonestreet have found their sweet spot. There have been comparisons to Lykke Li, Icona Pop and Tegan & Sara. Deservedly so. It’s impossible not to hit repeat on this jam. Part of what has been fueling this demand for more is what we don’t know. How does something so beautiful and memorable just materialize out of the ether? What is their story? Are they even humans?? Well, I can answer one of those questions, they are in fact beautiful humans and now we’ve got a video to satiate some of that pent up demand for more. Rumor has it they are back in the studio and I’m willing to venture we’ll be hearing ALOT about these two for some time to come.

[TMD EXCLUSIVE] Hooked. That’s all I can say. As far as debut singles go, ‘I Think I Like You’ from SIREN comes right out of the gates bringing the heat. From the jump, there’s no denying it. The minimal bass drum gets joined by angelic tones and a hint of guitar picking and then BOOM. You can’t help yourself. I cannot tell you how excited I am about this project. Based in Los Angeles, CA, SIREN is an emerging female duo featuring longtime friends, Kat Ostenberg and Skyler Stonestreet. Blending a pop sound with elements of hip hop, and evocative lyrics that reveal a unique perspective, SIREN will entice you into their world. Come join me, I’m already there.
