Cafuné, has shared another track off their forthcoming album Bite Reality, with “Temporary Lover,” a collaboration with Riovaz. The track details a relationship slips away through the cracks. Bite Reality drops on September 12th. The song follows previous singles “e-Asphyxiation” and “Attack + Release.”

“We first learned about Riovaz a few years ago after he covered one of our tunes, and were instantly drawn to his unique style of yearning club music,” says Cafuné’s Noah Yoo. “I was listening to him a lot when we wrote ‘Temporary Lover,’ so to have him be a part of the final record feels full circle.”

Written and produced by band members Noah Yoo and Sedona Schat, Bite Reality will arrive on September 12 via the band’s own Aurelians Club label, distributed by SoundOn. As the New York duo stare head-on into a world of digital degradation, they ask what humanity looks like in an era increasingly defined by AI, algorithms, and artificial intimacy. Recorded in 2024, the record finds the band at a familiar crossroads, reckoning between real and fake. The difference, this time around, is that they’re doing it in the real world, too. They’re no longer running from the bite of reality, but biting reality back; their lyrics teem with brutal honesty, not avoidant analogy.
