On the brink of releasing her debut solo album, Anji Bee first releases a new single in collaboration with German producer, Mr. Alfa, on his Venus Recordings label. The 2- song single, ‘Doomed/Who Will Help The Girl,’ was begun last November, when Alfa Kay sent Bee the instrumental demo which became “Doomed.” Perhaps ironically, Bee added these distinctly unromantic lyrics to the tune in a Valentine’s Day 2013 recording session. Its unusual for Bee to use her first take scratch vocals in a finished song, but the immediacy of the recording adds a refreshing looseness to the nearly 7-minute jazzy downtempo track. The flip side, “Who Will Help The Girl,” invites the possibility of future love with its questioning lyric and more upbeat chillout vibes.

Bee and Kay previously collaborated on the free single, “Winter Sun,” released last Christmas season, and Kay has remixed several of Bee’s tracks, including the title track of her upcoming CD, ‘Love Me Leave Me,’ and her collaboration with Karmacoda and Beth Hirsch, “Love Will Turn Your Head Around.” You can find all of these tracks at anjibee.bandcamp.com
