First unveiling the project on a remix of “Love and War” in 2021, the next year Zhenyok Chem Brat dropped the single “Let the Music Flow,” followed up by “Get Hot” in February last year. Now, Zhenyok Chem Brat brings us their latest original single titled “Of Your Touch,” taking cues from artists like Prince and Katy Perry to create an uptempo indie pop jam.

“Of Your Touch” tells the reflective story of a woman looking back on a relationship, from its early days to its eventual conclusion. The production, recorded with musicians from across the globe in Zhenyok’s personal studio, combines emotionally charged lyricism delivered via alluring female vocals backed by grooving beats, funky guitar rhythms and colourful synth dashes.

Driven by the jumpy punch of the drums, intricate guitar touches and silky vocalisations kick the track into gear as the arrangement flows with slick ebb and flow to serve up an infectious outing full of blissful melodic writing and energy. It’s a stunning pop-focused cut that puts the songwriting flair and creativity of Zhenyok Chem Brat on full display, resulting in an upbeat sound that’s sure to put a smile on the face of anyone who hears it.
