Pussy Riot and Nova Twins have teamed up for a brand-new single, Bad Trip.

Also featuring Argentinian producer Mykka, the song came together seemingly a couple of years ago when Nadya Riot – the leader of the Russian feminist protest group – got in touch with Amy and Georgia.

“We love Pussy Riot and all that they stand for, so when Nadya messaged us during lockdown, asking us to feature on Bad Trip we were super excited!” Nova Twins say. “The tune bangs and they are a force of nature!”

Nadya herself shares: “Mykka played this beat for me and I got obsessed and begged her to give it to me. It sounds menacing and dominant.

“I’m a big fan of Bosch, so I wanted to imagine what would be my version of hell / bad trip in this track – being mansplained and totally dominated would be a version of hell for me, that’s why my verse goes: ‘Mansplain me! I don’t really know what am I doing with my life, how to be a woman, tell me how to be a wife, tell me how to kiss and tell me how to die. Wanna be obedient, I wanna be your wife wife.’”
