Bien et Toi, the solo venture of Grammy and Ivor Novello-nominated producer and songwriter Gianluca Buccellati, unveils an infectious new single, "Signs," featuring the deep, sublime vocals of Halima.

The track immerses listeners in an atmospheric journey, layered with eclectic beats that seamlessly blend genres and push creative boundaries.

With "Signs," Bien et Toi not only presents a captivating musical exploration but also reflects a commitment to crafting a distinctive sound that resonates personally.

"I was feeling inspired by seventies funk and the likes of Parliament Funkadelic and Led Zeppelin. Musically, those influences came out in this song. I made the music as Halima was on the way to my house, and as soon as she heard it, she jumped on the track. It was instantaneous. We have this mutual admiration and respect for each other which comes out in the ease of what we make," shares Bien Et Toi.

The New York-born, Los Angeles-based artist Bien et Toi has been nominated for Grammy and Ivor Novello Awards and won a Mercury Prize for his work on Arlo Parks’ debut album “Collapsed in Sunbeams.” With a portfolio featuring Lana Del Rey (“Lust For Life”), Biig Piig (“The Sky is Bleeding”), Tei Shi, Paris Texas, Declan McKenna, and more, Bien et Toi now marks a shift, pursuing an independent direction to craft a unique sonic landscape.

His recent releases, London Safari I and Voici EPs, have received critical acclaim and secured features in notable publications such as Clash, GUAP, 10 Magazine, Notion, The New York Times, and more. “Voici” explores a sophisticated, romantic, and dark sonic world, skillfully reshaping traditional electronic forms for a dreamy, soulful sound. In “London Safari I,” Buccellati showcases his artistic strengths, crafting a new sonic experience with intricate production and hip-house vocals.

As Buccellati emerges as a solo artist, his dedication to producing authentic and diverse sounds sets the stage for an exciting chapter ahead!!
