Today Haulm have released the witchy, slow-burning “Work For Us.” Stream it, buy it, love it here. But more importantly, the duo have a big announcement: on March 30th they’ll release their debut EP. It’s called Stay For Me. And it’s gorgeous. More on that soon.

But in the meantime, this new song?! “Work For Us” melds the downtempo eeriness of debut single “They Came Along,” with producer Reed Kackley’s crackling, Burial-esque punchiness and vocalist JT Norton’s sweetly somnambulant vocals. All of that will be on display this Saturday and next Monday in Brooklyn as the group make their live debut at Elsewhere 2/27 and Baby’s All Right 2/29. Tickets in the tour section.

Following on the heels of the Brooklyn duo’s well-received debut, “They Came Along,” today Haulm has officially shared a new single called “Settle.” Premiered yesterday via Earmilk, the downcast pop song is an eerily lit showcase of JT Norton’s haunting melodies and Reed Kackley’s minimalist production. Think Rhye meets Burial, or a woozier Francis & The Lights. More from these guys soon.

This is “They Came Along” by Haulm, the latest member of the Grand Jury family. Their debut single is a minimalist, downcast delight, and only the first in a series of songs we’ll be releasing over the coming months. Earlier this week The405 had this to say:

The duo’s debut single, ‘They Came Along,’ is one of the year’s most thrilling tracks to date, all done without overloading the listener with sounds or gimmicks. Make no mistake, there is plenty of ambient noise – dogs, bird chirps, etc. There are also an array of warm, analogue textures and synths by Kackley filling in a rich sonic foundation for Norton’s somber, ethereal vocals.

And yet, it is only during a brief stretch near the end of the almost-six minute long track that the track’s various components really stack on top of one another. Instead, listeners are treated to a slow-burn of a dance track, packed with moody mediations on isolation and life. The end result is an utterly compelling listen, the sort of debut any group would dream of making. They say you only have one first impression and Haulm has not wasted theirs.
