Two Fingers is the new project from legendary producer Amon Tobin and Joe “Doubleclick” Chapman. Their self-titled debut album will be released in Canada on April 14th and will be preceded by two singles. “What You Know” will be available on January 13th and will be followed by the release of “That Girl” on March 17th. Both singles and seven album tracks feature the vocals of acclaimed North London-based MC and MOBO winner Sway.

Amon Tobin and Joe “Doubleclick” Chapman met when Tobin lived in Brighton and bonded over an interest in music that ran way beyond the boundaries of “electronica”. Last year, while Tobin was living in Montreal, they began bouncing beats back and forth, trying to apply production techniques associated with UK styles like drum & bass to the template of hip hop. When they had a few tunes together they sent them to Sway. He was so taken with what they were doing; he flew straight out to Montreal and recorded seven tracks with them. The remaining rhythms were voiced by sometime Missy Elliot protégé Ms Jade and dancehall legend Cecile.

The result is a project unlike anything that any of the three main players has ever made before, a unique, utterly uncompromising, brutal and beautiful record that could only have grown out of the UK and the internationalism of those involved. Like all the best music it transcends genre to stand on its own. Two Fingers is set to be one of the records of the year.
