Bursting into the new decade with addictive new single “Enchanté”, New Zealand electronic duo SACHI are back with an assertive spring in their step. Fusing a bilingual bop between English and French, “Enchanté” features Naïka, an extravagant pop singer who grew up between Guadeloupe, Vanuatu, Kenya and Paris. Listen HERE.
Taking cues from French house, four-to-the-floor disco and their signature pop-tinged electronic, “Enchanté" is an empowering, informal dance floor acquaintance; translating from French to “nice to meet you” in English.
“When we were writing the song it came out super fun and sassy, like going out to the club and not taking shit from anyone. We spent time in Paris a few years back and that’s just totally the experience we had of Parisian nightlife,” Will says.
Nick adds, “We had been wanting to write a song with a bilingual chorus for a while, and the song came out super naturally when we wrote it with Naika, who’s first language is French. We always try to make songs that make you dance, especially in a live setting with friends.”
Co-written by Naïka and SACHI, ‘Enchanté’s lyricism holds the witty charisma of a girl who’s just been bought a drink in the club before disappearing into the night on her own. The single’s cheeky, blunt sass is expressed the same in SACHI’s productions buzzing dance-pop vibrations. No matter which language is spoken, the confident spirit of ‘Enchanté’ translates universally.
‘Enchanté’ follows SACHI’s 2019 sophomore EP, Nights With Ruby, which has amassed over 25 million streams. In 2020, the pair have already embarked on a hectic Summer festival run, playing in front of over 100,000 fans at Rhythm & Vines, Northern Bass, Soundsplash, Six60 Saturday’s and many more.
