Verses GT (Jacques Greene + Nosaj Thing) Release New Single, “Forever” (ft. KUČKA)

Verses GT — the duo of Jacques Greene + Nosaj Thing — release “Forever” (ft. KUČKA), the new single and final preview from their self-titled debut album, out this Friday via LUCKYME®. Following last month’s refreshingly vital single, “Found”, “Forever” surges with the energy of empathetic, connected body-music, celebrating a hard-edged intimacy alongside British-born Australian singer and producer KUČKA.

Reflecting on the song’s creation, Nosaj Thing says: “I remember looking at the drum track effect chain, and it was a combination that I haven’t really seen before. It was a little bit of what we both did, and it was experimental, so that’s why those drums sound like that. From what I remember, I never made drums like that. You never made drums like that. It came together that way just from those explorations.”

Verses GT is the new collaborative project from Nosaj Thing and Jacques Greene, encompassing an album, a worldwide live tour, and immersive moving image. Bold and elegant, the duo’s self-titled debut album is a heavyweight and tangible record reflecting both lived-in and lived-through modern times.

The majority of Verses GT was created in person in London, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Paris, and in Montreal at Jacques Greene’s studio, rather than virtually. “It’s based on human relationships,” Greene explains. In addition to KUČKA, the album includes features from George Riley and TYSON and a collaborative art-working team of photographer-director Xavier Tera, creative director-writer Terence Teh, and artist-designer Erin D. Garcia. Together, they have created a project that is a globally-spanning, call-and-response mantra. Verses GT is a singular yet wide-reaching dialogue between the duo, each prospective listener, and a shared, collective experience of making something real, together.

Earlier this summer, Verses GT announced an expansive global tour, with dates taking place across Europe, North and Central America and Asia this autumn. Having debuted their live set at MUTEK Montreal in 2024, as well as touring extensively as a DJ duo over the last couple of years, the pair’s live show marks a new chapter in their deepening creative relationship. Kicking off next week on Thursday, Sept. 18 in Phillippe’s hometown of Montreal, the duo’s North American leg will see them headlining shows at New York’s Webster Hall, San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall, Los Angeles’ El Rey Theatre, Miami’s III Points Festival, and beyond before heading to Europe and Japan. Tickets are on-sale now and available here.
