The Null Club shares ‘Overgrown’ featuring Miss Grit
Dublin’s The Null Club returns with the new single ‘Overgrown’ featuring New York artist Miss Grit, out now and self-released on a limited run of 100 12″ records through the label run by Alan Duggan-Borges and his wife.
Leaning heavily into techno and noise, ‘Overgrown’ pushes The Null Club’s experimental edge with pulsing 909 drum patterns, layered synths, and abrasive textures that merge with Miss Grit’s atmospheric vocal presence. Mixed by Daniel Fox (Gilla Band) and mastered by Jamie Hyland (M(h)aol), the single builds around a full-bodied, hypnotic low end—recorded and performed by Duggan-Borges in his Dublin rehearsal studio using old synths, drum machines, and guitars.
Alan explains:
“The hypnotic but kind of punishing nature of a 909 kick drum is something I’ve always searched for in music. When I first got a 909 drum machine and heard how full the kick drum could be by itself, I got lost in that specific low end for a good few weeks. The studio where I write has some big big subs, so I would sit there for hours chasing the full sound of those drums. That was the starting point of this track.
“When I had a rough pass of the instrumental done, Miss Grit added vocals and life to the track. The whole thing came together quite naturally and the vocals added so much feel and texture to the track.”
Miss Grit adds:
“I’ve been a fan of Alan’s work for a while now so I was honestly shocked he wanted to work with me. When he sent over the track I was obsessed, but also intimidated because it was so good and I didn’t know how I was gonna make it sound any better than it already was. I ended up writing lyrics about that basically – the overthinking and self-consciousness that often gets stirred up in myself when collaborating. I was so happy hearing the final version. Alan made me sound so much better than I thought I did.”
‘Overgrown’ featuring Miss Grit is available now on all streaming platforms.
