Audio: Petite Noir 'Disappear'

April 27, 2012 - 2:31 p.m.

New wave South African Petite Noir — who recently laid down a solid Africa In Your Earbuds mixtape — comes through with the ghostly electropop jam "Disappear." Instrumentation is key here, with Petite Noir matching a post-punk bass with drone guitars and, even, a string section ending. Stream and download it below, via Red Bull Studio Cape Town.
