“…on Desire, their exploration of the divine takes them in a many-splendored multitude of stylistic directions, often within the span of a single track: liturgical drone, galloping club beats, existential noise.” – Pitchfork
 
"Extraordinary... Hauntingly epic, defiantly free-spirited."  Vogue

"Everything about Desire Marea’s new track ‘Tavern Kween’ screams regal. It features an eclectic mix of electric, clubhouse beats, and bold brass instrumentation that would make it at home at the ballroom and the club."  THEM

"Desire is a truly singular record. One where the varying styles incorporated shouldn’t co-exist as harmoniously as they do. Their assured artistic sensibilities drive the tonal dexterity at dizzying speeds."  Loud & Quiet
 
Following a rapturous performance at Rewire Festival and a sold-out headline debut in Berlin, South Africa-based artist Desire Marea today shares a rework of single “You Think I'm Horny by Planningtorock.

“You Think I'm Horny” is one of the standouts from debut album Desire, released in August on Mute. Now, Desire Marea and Planningtorock present a fresh take on the track – “Planningtobehorny.” Listen here.

"I absolutely love Desire Marea and their new album is stunning" says Planningtorock. "When I first heard ‘You Think I’m Horny’ I totally fell in love with the story and Desire's beautiful voice and couldn’t wait to spend time with the song and remix it…. Such an honor 💜"

The remix follows qgom originator Griffit Vigo's rework of “Tavern Kween,” from Desire. The album is an exploration of loss, displacement, and the terrifying manifestations of love in the contemporary world. The expansive exploration of spirituality and the divine is palpable and skillfully interlaces snapshots from decidedly grounded human experiences. It serves as a captivating introduction to their singular and multi-faceted world.
 
Kwazulu-natal born, multi-disciplinary artist Desire Marea (born Buyani Duma) was a founding member of Johannesburg collective FAKA. Over the last few weeks their debut solo album Desire has been picked as Rough Trade’s Album of the Month and BBC 6Music’s Album of the Day. It is available on digital platforms, CD, as a standard white vinyl with lyric booklet, and as a Rough Trade edition clear vinyl in a PVC sleeve packaged with a limited edition 4-track CD of Desire Marea Nezimakade (Live at Alliance Française Ethekwini).
