Toronto hero, Diamond Rings continues his global onslaught with his first release on Astralwerks Record, taken from his forthcoming album co-produced with Grammy-nominated Damian Taylor (Bjork, The Killers, Prodigy, UNKLE, Robyn). “I’m Just Me” is consistent with his ambiguous gender-bending visuals and lyrics. The video is fairly in line with his past productions, but according to John O, “[it] marks a shift towards a monochromatic color palette and visual aesthetic predicated on the interaction of light and form.’ Most importantly, ‘I’m Just Me’ represents the beginning of a new journey into the world of Diamond Rings.” The track is available now to download on iTunes.
