Peking Duk

"Say My Name" is the latest single from the Australian electronic duo, Peking Duk. It can be found on their debut EP, "Songs To Sweat To", released on July 31st via RCA Records. The song features a powerful vocal performance from a fellow Canberran called Benjamin Joseph. The song was written after their appearance at Stereosonic Music Festival in Melbourne in December 2014.

The group adds, "The song was actually written in a matter of 20 minutes. It sounded rough but all the ideas were there, a wrap-up session in Canberra and some tightening up in Los Angeles later and 'Say My Name' was complete."

This duo is made up of DJ and music producers Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles. They first garnered attention in 2012 with the release of their Passion Pit bootleg remix. Since then, they have opened for artists such as Example and The Bloody Beetroots and played numerous festivals around Australia. Their top rated single "High" reached 5 on the ARIA Singles Chart and achieved a platinum certification. They went on to win Best Dance Release at the ARIA Music Awards of 2014 for the song as well.

Peking Duck had a busy summer promoting the EP playing all over North America. They will play Life Is Beautiful in September.
