Ikonika - Phonelines VIP

This is the tune that first alerted me to Ikonika's music - I remember pestering her on Myspace for info on a release date.

At the time I first heard it, it was a real tonic, a tune with progression and pressure amidst the build-drop-and build again template that was solidifying all around it. Listen below.
