Since March, we’ve awaited Detroit Swindle’s new album, “High Life.” This release comes as the second full-length album for the Dutch duo since 2014. As devoted record collectors, Dales and Smeets maintain a DJ style that is one-off and eclectic, reflecting their love for many eras. The sixth track of the album, “Flavourism” features a collaboration with gospel-trained singer, Seven Davis Jr. incorporating stripped down, house driven grooves. Dale and Smeets describe this album as “combining our love for house, ambient and jazzy harmonics.” Whether it’s classic house, obscure disco, or funk- they bring it, work it, and mix it up.
Collaboration
EKALI & MEDASIN - FOREVER FT. ELOHIM
Music, Original MixComment2018’s most handsome collaboration goes to none other than Ekali and Medasin in their latest joint single, “Forever” featuring multi-instrumentalist super-babe, Elohim. Both Ekali and Medasin have undergone massive transitions in the last year- from an adored underground EDM scene, to playing festivals as prominent as Coachella and garnering support from Billboard Dance. Their synergistic, humble attitudes and hunger for innovation shine in “Forever,” allowing the track to stand as a prototype for their respective EDM sub-genres. Charming piano riffs delicately complement Elohim’s sultry, gritty psalms, while Ekali and Medasin manipulate a signature ebb and flow of experimental future-bass. This rousing piece is well-rounded, subtly romantic, and riddled with enchantment. As Ekali and Medasin continue their pursuits in their solo careers, “Forever” will stand as a pillar for their careers as creators. This three-piece dynamic is unparalleled and unafraid- stay tuned for more from these revolutionary visionaries.
