Tricky presents Skilled Mechanics - ’Beijing To Berlin’ feat. Ivy

Tricky presents: Skilled Mechanics New album out now on False Idols / !K7 Order: Following two solo albums on his own False Idols imprint, Tricky announces a new collaborative project, Skilled Mechanics, a collaboration with DJ Milo and Luke Harris. The enigmatic voice on the single’s A-side, “Beijing To Berlin,“ belongs to the Chinese rapper and producer Ivy 艾菲. Tricky explains: “I was in Beijing for a show and I met this guy who managed her. She’s so different! So raw! The strange thing is, I’ve had the track for a while but I only just found out that she’s not rapping in Chinese. I ain’t got a clue what language it is. I have no idea. It might be completely made up but whatever it is, it sounds wicked. I’m lucky that with my label, False Idols, I don’t need to worry about things like this. I’m never going to have an A&R guy saying to me, ‘We don’t understand what she’s saying.’ Becaus
