Multi-Platinum Collaboration: Cheat Codes and Julia Church Release Heartfelt Track “Modern Tragedy” – Available Now!
In an extraordinary fusion of creativity, the Los Angeles-based trio Cheat Codes teams up with the talented Julia Church, a Durban-born singer-songwriter now based in London, for their latest single – “Modern Tragedy.”
This track perfectly blends Cheat Codes’ unique style of dance-electronic and pop, featuring captivating basslines, energetic beats, and otherworldly melodies crafted by the renowned producers. Julia’s delicate and soulful voice infuses a sense of longing and optimism throughout the piece.
“In a world rife with tragedy, we channeled that pain into something transformative. Collaborating with Julia allowed us to create not just a song, but a narrative that resonates with real struggles, discovering beauty amidst the darkness. It’s a reminder that within chaos, harmony can exist.” – Cheat Codes
“‘Modern Tragedy’ delves into the complexities of contemporary dating, feeling trapped in a cycle of excitement followed by disappointment. I penned this after experiencing a ghosting from someone I admired. Sometimes, laughter (and songwriting) is the best remedy.” – Julia Church
Julia’s impressive resume includes collaborations with top electronic artists like John Summit, Diplo, Sub Focus, Kaskade, CamelPhat, Gorgon City, and Robin Schulz. Her contributions elevate the dynamic sound of Cheat Codes, as they shift back to their electronic roots following the recent release of “Bloom,” a pop ballad collaboration with Train.
