Blur vocalist Damon Albarn has collaborated with German DJ and dance producer DJ Koze on a new single, Pure Love.
According to a statement posted with the YouTube upload, the song is the result of a "cosmic spark" between Koze (aka Stefan Kozalla) and Albarn, which stemmed from the two musicians meeting by chance in the Maras salt mines in the Sacred Valley of Peru.
The blurb continues: "The encounter in the surreal salt ponds, was the initial spark from which this deep and unfathomably mystical treasure was born. The shimmering of these two souls opens a window onto a nocturnal scene where the scents of oriental spices dance through the air and the stars twinkle above us.
The sky has never been as beguiling as it is today."
