Hildegard – electronic duo featuring experimental singer-songwriter Helena Deland and multi-instrumentalist/producer Ouri (Ourielle Auvé) – have shared a new track from their upcoming self-titled debut LP. Deland and Ouri describe “Jour 3” as “a playful, winking hymn to sexual fantasy and solo pleasure,” and the track is accompanied by a self-directed music video.

Hildegard will be released on June 4 via Chivi Chivi. Deland and Ouri recorded over just eight days in the studio, uncovering their innate creative connection while developing an intuitive approach to composition and sound. The eight tracks on Hildegard fuse together into a sonic sphere, and are named for each day Deland and Ouri spent together. Deland’s folk background balances against Ouri’s nocturnal world of electronic and dance music. Weightless vocals and aphoristic lyrics hover over kinetic beats and throbbing bass. The meeting place sounds something like dusk, or dawn.

Throughout the album, Deland and Ouri drew inspiration from mystic, healer, composer, and visionary 12th century nun, Hildegard of Bingen. Hildegard was a woman of science, music, and spirituality, as well as a symbol of nurturing strength. In her 12th century presence, she wrote prophecies, poems, and treatises; she experienced otherworldly visions and recorded them, passing them down through generations. Deland and Ouri invoke Hildegard as a carrier of the magic they felt working with each other, the separate entity that was born as they blended together.
