about

After a cute, anime-esque voice beckons us towards this track, a deep sluggish bass drives this song to life. This track is sexy, masculine, and confident.

As the vocal sample becomes muffled by a progressively murkier environment, the whole thing is reminiscent of your 6th hour in the club, as the music becomes slower, harder, and more distant–– or maybe it feels slower because your limbs are getting heavy. Somehow there are voices emerging from within and melting back into the wall of noise that occasionally capture your attention, but something sharper in the track fuels a dark determination to keep swaying to the beat regardless.

The samples and textures in this track are myriad, carefully layered and very contemporary, reminiscent of 2010s berlin-influenced club beats, but perhaps through a sheer 2020s veil of ketamine rather than the old school, disingenuous buzz of MDMA and club mate. Are you having fun yet?
