US artist and producer Barleaux releases “Code”.
A Brooklyn native, Barleaux curates a carefully crafted new sound by way of several of her female influences (MØ, Dua Lipa, Verité, Tove Lo, BANKS) with the classic analog pop she grew up on (Tears for Fears, Duran Duran, Radiohead) to create a whole new territory of sonic radiance.
“Code” is Barleaux’s first single via AWAL. “It’s about the self-imposed pressure of being an artist in a quickly changing industry, and forming an identity parallel to their existential relationship with the outside world.” A fiery, energetic seance of dark synth-pop that launches the listener into a sea of emotion, “Code,” weaves a seductive tale of jealousy and expectations, distinguished by an urgency that never lets up, from the trademark energy in Barleaux’s vocals to the distinctive background web she’s woven with analog synthesizers.
Barleaux is also the founder of the digital strategy company, City Hearts Digital and is pursuing a masters degree in Media Management at The New School in New York. She splits her time between Upstate New York, Miami, and Brooklyn.
