Wren, James, and Stone got together at Degraw Sound in Brooklyn, and set forth on turning Wren’s demos into the final piece. The second was more developed and featured bigger reverb-drenched drums.” “The first demo consisted of a hip-hop beat and a couple of synths. “When I brought the song to Harper and Gian last summer, I had previously created two versions,” Wren says.

“I wrote it shortly after I moved to Brooklyn, when I was still reeling from the events which forced me to flee in the first place.”Īlthough the finished product features the artistic production flourishes of both Wren and her colleagues and friends Harper James and Gian Stone, the song started out with just Wren and her tools. “Venom was inspired by my time living in a dump with no bedroom door on West 172nd Street in ,” Wren told Vehlinggo recently. However, the roots of “Venom” date back to before she met Grellier, when she lived not far north from Vehlinggo headquarters. This is Wren’s first song since last year’s “Save The Day,” which most recently got a brighter disco treatment at the hands of College friend and Valerie Collective member Maethelvin. The Brooklyn-based musician’s new song also has some nods to her recent collaboration with David “College” Grellier on “Save The Day” and there’s no doubt that Charli XCX was on her mind when recording the song. This is all in Wren’s awesome music video for her new catchy, Twin Shadow-inspired “Venom” single. A giant gummy bear even enters the scene. At other times she’s unencumbered, adorned with an electric guitar and dancing in a sea of balloons under the watchful eye of a toy dinosaur. College collaborator Nola Wren, dressed in a sultry sparkled black, is tied up with glowing ropes.
