Hi Guys & Dolls... 

Singer / songwriter Leanne Louise graces our cover this month. The heart 

pops out together with her distinctive look, and the words replicate the 

orientation of her logo. It feels old school yet fresh, as David puts it. This 

also is shown on the back cover with a dark textured red piece. We’ve 

launched the REWIND and SPOTLIGHT segments across our networks, to 

celebrate the old and new. Our Radio guide is now the Shows guide which 

include TV, radio, podcasts. There is a subtle theme of darkness throughout 

of anger, frustration, heartbreak and sadness. It is strange how the world 

feels emotions together in certain periods like this. But the amazing thing 

is that they all take that dark feeling and turn it into something 

motivational, finding their inner strength. 

In this issue, Sarah’s Thoughts are frustrated with the injustice all around, 

she shares 5 power music videos to tackle these issues. Rewind with a 

moment of love and spontaneity from Orson’s No Tomorrow. With her 

heart in two, she picks herself up and finds her spirit. Leanne Louise tells 

us all about ‘My Goodbye’ and how her career is progressing. Pa large / 

Don’t Give up, says Stv. Struggling to find positivity, rap music helps him 

to scream out the tensions. Roar! Chillout with a beautiful release from 

Blackboxx and a compelling Mija. On screen we check out developments on 

The Big Narstie sHow (W/T) from Channel 4 and hop to discover live 

shows from O2’s follow the rabbit campaign. We've got your events guide,

5 POWERFUL MUSIC VIDEOS TO 

TACKLE PRESENT SOCIAL JUSTICE ISSUES 

I’ve had enough. Shootings, terrorism, brutality, hate, 

inequality, INJUSTICE. There is far too much in this world, and 

WE should all agree it needs to end. Yesterday. 

Working at a news station, I’ve seen horrific stories reported 

daily than I’ve ever noticed before. I used to hear my news 

through social media when I was at school or working away 

from a television. It would be the story most prominent in the 

country or the world. When will the time come for the daily 

reports to STOP?! The fact that most of the world is run by 

leaders who take the side that promote violence and injustice, 

rather than trying to bring peace, is beyond me. 

In these trying times, and times where we actually need to start 

doing something in the world, rather than sharing our “thoughts 

and prayers” on our irrelevant social media accounts. 

"Some things just drag and drag you down, in your 

reality, in your dreams and it feels you can't 

get away from them. But as long as we realize our 

strength and push on, we will be alright." 

- Ruby 

Speeches are powerful, journalism is exceptional, but music has 

that unique way of portraying a powerful message. Step up to 

that idea is the music video. 

Economic inequality & giving back to community. 

Drake – God’s Plan 

Drake gave away almost 1 million dollars in his music video for 

God’s Plan. Despite all the skeptical comments and reviews, I 

love this video and idea. This is so refreshing to see a successful 

music artist give back to his fans. I don’t think he is asking for 

praise, especially since he did not promote the video. He just 

said “this is the most important thing I have ever done in my 

career.” 


Sexual Harassment 

Kesha – Praying 

In my opinion, Kesha was the pioneer for the sexual harassment 

acknowledgement in our society, and for that I thank her 

bravery. It is a song rebirth, and a prime example that a person 

can heal. You have the power to realize the harm that is done to 

you can end, and know that you can move forward without 

them. 

Violence 

The Stop the Violence Movement - Self Destruction 

This song was posted 10 years ago to draw attention to violence 

solely in the hip-hop and African American communities, and 

each lyric still applies today, but to more groups and 

demographics. 

This lyric sparks the call for change - 

“It's time to stand together in a unity 'Cause if 

not then we're soon to be Self-destroyed, 

unemployed The rap race will be lost without a 

trace Or a clue but what to do” 

Seeking freedom and justice 

Common, John Legend – Glory 

Written for the movie Selma, “Glory” is a hope for the day when 

freedom and justice is upon us all for all races and walks of life. 

Glory is destined. 

When all hope is lost and you need a song to boost your 

spirits 

Kendrick Lamar – Alright 

Because after all…we’re going to be alright. 

Me too. 

Until next time. 

Sarah's Thoughts 

13

Orson - No Tomorrow 

I see that twinkle in your 

eye... This is a moment 

of love and spontaneity. 

There's no tomorrow, 

nothing matters except 

right now, just you 

and me. 


I'm wondering why I 

got out of bed at all. 

Dido - Thank You 15

It is really something special when 

you get to witness and support an 

artist’s growth right from the 

beginning, and Leanne Louise has 

blossomed continuously over the 

past years - almost a decade. She’s 

has her ups and downs, as we all have, 

and a lot of times in which she’s worn 

her heart on her sleeve and she 

inspirationally powers through. It’s 

so great to see her bubbly nature and 

passion for music strong as ever. 

She’s really working hard and having 

fun. We are excited to chat with 

Leanne Louise as she releases her new 

single ‘My Goodbye’. 

My Inspiration… 

As a singer/songwriter I base a lot, if 

not the majority, of my songs around 

situations in life that I go through / 

the feelings I feel and this particular 

song (My Goodbye) came about very 

organically. I’d reached a turning 

point in my life and mindset after 

having my heartbroken, I found it 

really hard to write about the 

heartbreak so I teamed up with a 

good friend of mine and producer 

who’s name is Sovereign (known for 

his presence in the UKG scene), he 

sent me over an instrumental and 

instantly the lyrics and melody line 

just flowed out of me. I wanted to 

write a song that would empower 

people, not just provoke the negative 

feelings of a break up but the great 

ones you feel at that turning point 

when you’re ready to bounce back 

and achieve everything you’re made 

for achieving. Within a week of me 

writing the song, we were in his studio 

laying down the vocals. 

‘My Goodbye’, produced by 

Sovereign, is a fantastic fresh little 

number. The snappy and assertive 


17

side of Leanne Louise’s voice is paired 

with a nifty uk garage beat. There is 

a beautiful surprise of the sublime 

long vocal notes and a little twist of 

dark bass to create a great contrast. 

The story speaks of a bad breakup. 

You are the joker in a pack of cards. 

You must be joking, boy I’m the queen 

of hearts. This is goodbye baby. 

The music video shows the fun which 

Leanne Louise puts into her work. It 

kicks off with the showcase of her 

record and online networks. This 

jumps into reality with her singing 

along in the style of a live session as 

fan reactions bubble away at the 

bottom of the screen. Emoji’s pop up 

throughout to reinforce the lyrics 

whilst Leanne’s spirited character 

shines through with her movements 

and gestures. 

My Career… 

Right now I’m so happy with how 

things are turning out because it’s 

been a good few years since I 

released anything officially (my last 

official release was ‘Mr Magician’), 

but I’ve been experimenting a lot 

with different sounds and visions for 

the past 2 years and I have a confident 

vision of the sort of record I want to 

create. So, I’m very happy with what 

I’m working on but always moving 

forward and keeping an open mind 

to new opportunities. 

been working with a lot of people 

over the past few years and now a 

good few projects will be seeing the 

light of day. I am working on a record, 

that is definitely one of my biggest 

focus’, however, I also have a 

collaboration with an incredible 

rapper from Canada named Illvibe 

and our new single ‘Figure it out’ 

(produced by Notion) will be coming 

out on his album entitled ‘Antigravity’ 

on the 20th April. I am collaborating 

with a lot of incredible producers, 

some from the UK and some from 

different parts of the world too. My 

motto for this year is definitely say 

less and do more but I can't wait to 

show everyone what I’ve been up to. 

To celebrate the launch of ‘My 

Goodbye’, Leanne also introduces the 

#MYGOODBYECHALLENGE whereby 

vocalists have the opportunity to 

sing over the instrumental version. 

The winner will receive a studio 

session to record their creation 

courtesy of UR2RATCHET.COM and 

also will get the chance to perform 

with Leanne Louise across the 

country. To enter, all you have to do 

it download the instrumental from 

Leanne Louise’s Soundcloud, record 

your version and upload it to her 

Facebook page. Entries close on 18th 

March and winners will be 

announced 20th March. 

My Future… 

This year is very exciting because I’ve 


My Goodbye… 

Yes, I’d like to say a BIG thank you to 

yourself and everyone that has 

shown me so much support, not just 

with the release of ‘My Goodbye’ but, 

with any project that I turn my hands 

to. It’s always a little bit nervewracking 

when you haven’t released 

anything for a while but everyone has 

shown me so much support, my song 

is played on different radio stations 

every day, shared with new people 

from different countries… There’s so 

much more but, THANK YOU.

Pa Large / Don't Give Up 

Hello Yall. 

Hope you are doing great! It has been quite long time I have 

not sent some thoughts from the island. Well, these times 

were quite hard and stressful (I hate using this word), I can 

feel these loads on my shoulder literally. My positivity has 

been shot many times and felt like putting knees to ground. 

The will to give up was enticing and pressing as well. 

I would like to share my experience as how music helped me 

through and especially one style I do not fancy that much. 

Being head first in those dark times and when the waves 

keep coming and crushing you to ground, having a life line, 

even the thinnest, is the most welcome. I have clung to it, 

still clinging, and getting the best of me to overcome these 

issues. 

"Take a deep breath", the advise from a close friend of mine, 

well I have taken very deep ones and the best I had got a 

gutty instinctive roar, shaking my inner foundations. I am 

rather peaceful and quiet person; but I have accepted that at 

times this anger needs to come out and been transformed in 

other ways, one of the best (non destructive/non violent) is 

having a deep gutty roar which vibrates your whole body and 

releases your inner frustrations. 

Rap does helped me in the process. Eminem's song Till I 

Collapse was the perfect catalyst. The flow of words, the beat, 

the crescendo gaining in such intensity made me yelled my 

deep feelings. Thanks Eminem! I have tried with some other 

titles and the feeling was the same. Eminem - Phenomenal & 

2Pac - Legendary are also boosters. 

Hopefully, these days are better and even if they were not I 

have learnt to expel the negativity and keep a positive 

mindset. I send you people positive thoughts from the island 

and much love to help you through. #PaLarge #DontGiveUp

Chillout... 

Blackboxx - Province 

Close your your eyes and sink into the tranquility. 

Absorb the beautiful melodic tones, painting a 

picturesque scene. Wander across to a sombre state of 

emotions, the ache of a dark past. It’s my cold heart 

beating in my chest. A delicate story is told, the 

wavering mind and soul feeling every sensation. 

Slime Recordings welcomes back Blackboxx to the 

label, as he continues to mature into an increasingly 

talented artist reaching above genre confines to find a 

space unique to his style - emotive, cinematic, 

expressive. In his most experimental work to date, 

’Province’ affords a glimpse into what will be a bright 

future for the Edinburgh producer. 

Mija ft Kelli Schaefer - Bad For U 

A moment in the darkness. This world is bad for u. 

The subdued tone and a hypnotising voice. But, all is 

not lost. There is beauty in the delicate melody 

unfolding. I don’t know you really… We take a leap of 

faith and feel an energy within. As far as I can tell, I 

know you better than anybody else. 


ON SCREEN

The Big Narstie Show (W/T) 

Coming soon to Channel 4, this will be a late night slot of 

entertainment and fun. The show will be honest by MC Big Narstie 

alongside comedian Mo Gilligan. Bi Narstie is well known for his 

energetic character and this is, no doubt, going to be an on-trend and 

lively watch. 

Grime MC, Big Narstie, of BDL (Base Defence League) and online agonyuncle 

fame, will team up with co-host, Mo Gilligan, to present a late 

night, alternative entertainment show. 

In the non-TX pilot, Narstie and Mo will be joined by celebrity guests 

as they present original, straight-talking segments on the news of the 

week, TV, showbiz, trends, phone-ins, and food. 

In 2017 Big Narstie took part in two of Channel 4's most popular 

programmes for young audiences - Gogglebox: Celebrity Special for 

Stand Up To Cancer and The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2017 which 

attracted 38.8% and 34.6% share of 16-34 year old viewers 

respectively, more than doubling Channel 4's slot average. 

Syeda Irtizaali, Commissioning Editor, Channel 4 says, “We’re thrilled 

to work with Big Narstie again, as it’s clear from his previous Channel 4 

appearances that he is en route to becoming something of a national 

treasure. It really feels like an opportunity for a brilliant and ridiculous 

show which flips the conventional magazine show format on its head.” 

Ben Wicks, Creative Director, Comedy Entertainment at Expectation 

and Executive Producer, says “Big Narstie is an incredibly talented, 

charismatic, charming and funny man who has some of the best turns 

of phrase the English language has ever known. We are very excited 

about working with him, and Mo Gilligan, the most must-see comedian 

on the circuit whose inimitable high-energy style is sure to take TV by 

storm. This is a show I cannot wait to watch let alone make.” 

The non-TX pilot episode was commissioned for Channel 4 by Ed 

Havard, Head of Entertainment with Syeda Irtizaali, Commissioning 

Editor, Entertainment and Events and Shaminder Nahal, Commissioning 

Editor, Specialist Factual. It is an Expectation production, executive 

produced by Ben Wicks and series produced by Aoife Bower.

‘LIKE I DO’ BY DAVID GUETTA & MARTIN GARRIX 

FT BROOKS IS A FUN AND LOVING TRACK. THE 

BIG CLUB ENERGY IS A KILLER PARTY-STARTER. 

THE GOOD VIBES FLOW THROUGH AND THE 

LYRICS ARE MEMORABLE. 

The track showcases a blend of progressive 

house and pure pop combined with beautiful 

vocals. Both have teased the track during shows 

all over the world the past couple of weeks and 

today it is finally available at all digital service 

providers. It’s known that David and Martin are 

really good friends and love to make music 

together. Here’s what both of them had to say 

about ‘Like I Do’. 

“When we hit the studio we were already 

working on several tracks. After we saw the great 

response on So Far Away we thought f*** it we 

will release another track together straight 

away.” David Guetta 

“David is a legend. I have a lot of respect for him 

as an artist and I’m very happy we were able to 

release another track together with the amazing 

Brooks who I have worked with on other records 

before. I think he’s one of the most talented 

producers out there.” Martin Garrix

‘Office Crush’ by Skallee & Wagz ft MC RB and Amealia Akorsua is a lively 

number. The fun production pairs nicely against the two fresh vocals. 

This release pulls a lot of great minds from the underground together 

with a generous remix package too. Aaron K turns heads with a highenergy 

intro leading to a dark bass-driven main section. Lil Rich adds a 

bumpy UKG beat with a bright feel. Danny Blaze brings out a deep and 

moody dub edit with quick-fire vocal cuts. MR SX takes an urban edge 

emphasising the fresh flow of the vocals with an addictive beat. And, last 

but not least, Rdubz pulls out two edits. The first is a Wavy Soca which 

plays with a variety of exciting sounds. The second is the Icky Icky mix 

with more attitude and a peppy yet dark.

A sweet

THE FIRST TRACK ENTERS WITH A LOVELY MELLOW 

TONE LEADING INTO A GRITTY BIT OF BASS! THE 

SECOND TRACK BRINGS IN A GREAT OLDSCHOOL 

BEAT, THEN COMES IN THE DARK SIDE. A BLIPPI 

LITTLE REMIX FINISHES THE EP OFF. 

OPENING ON SOFT PADS AND DREAMY DIVA VOCALS 

ACROSS A SKITTERING 2-STEP RHYTHM, ‘BEEHIVE’ 

QUICKLY MAKES GOOD ON IT’S NAME BY DROPPING 

A BUZZING BASSLINE THAT CUTS THROUGH THE 

CORE OF THE TRACK, ADDING A JUICY DOLLOP OF 

FUNK TO PROCEEDINGS. 

‘CINNAMON’ DROPS DEEPER FOR A MORE SUBTLE 

AND SOULFUL AFFAIR, WITH SUMMERY KEYS 

SPRINKLED OVER A BUBBLING UKG GROOVE AND 

SWIRLING SUB-BASS. 

FOR THE FINAL TRACK, UP AND COMING LONDON- 

BASED PRODUCER CONTEXT FLIPS THE TITLE SONG 

INTO MUCH TOUGHER TERRITORY, MUTATING THE 

BASSLINE AND BEAT INTO A PEAK-TIME DARKSIDE 

ROLLER.

‘Skin’ by Tayá ft Lotto Boyzz is oh so sultry. I’m lost in you, I 

don’t wanna be found. The voice is simply divine with sweet 

notes full of passion. The pairing is complete with the raspy 

male flow, setting the mood for L-O-V. The visuals are equally 

sensual with deep shades of reds and blues accompanied with 

subdued yet glamorous shots. 

Liverpool raised R’n’B songbird Tayá reveals her new single and 

accompanying visuals to the sultry laid back track Skin, 

featuring one of the most exciting Afro-Bashment duos of the 

moment, Lotto Boyzz. The sensual, heartfelt “Skin” continues to 

demonstrate Tayá’s amorous soul vocals alongside her 

infectious songwriting manifesting her into a true rising star. 

Producer Alan Sampson (Rita Ora, Zayn Malik, Craig David) 

incorporates that classic R’n’B vibe with a present freshness in 

a true Tayá fashion. 

“Skin signifies the point in a new relationship where it all feels 

really exciting and you feel ready to take it to the next level. In 

this case I'm talking about myself, but I think this can apply to 

anyone. It doesn't matter who you are or how old you are, those 

butterflies never go. Everyone can relate to these emotions 

when it comes to L-O-V. It’s also one of my favourite songs to 

perform” Tayá 

Tayá has already gathered huge early support from the likes of 

Annie Mac, Mistajam, Clara Amfo, Trevor Nelson, DJ Target and 

Toddla T, alongside i-D, THE FADER, Mixmag, Wonderland, 

Notion, Hunger, Noisey and more. She continues to perfect her 

live show with huge support tours under her belt with the likes 

of Zara Larsson and Astrid S. 

Having been spotted playing live at an early age in her 

hometown of Liverpool, UK, the 19 -year old has already been 

collaborating with some of the finest R&B influenced producers 

both in the UK and Stateside. These producers include UK based 

Starsmith, Diztortion and Snakehips and US based Rodney 

Jerkins, Fisticuffs (Miguel/Jhene Aiko), DJ Khalil (Drake), Al Shux 

(Kendrick Lemar and SZA) and Sango (Goldlink).

‘Wasted’ by Sarah Darling is a dear rendition of pain and sadness. The 

stunning vocals pour emotion on top of the melodic guitar. 

Ahead of her 12 date UK & Ireland tour, Nashville’s Sarah Darling will 

release the single ‘Wasted’. Produced by Mark Bright (Carrie Underwood, 

Rascall Flatts) and written by Sarah with country hit songwriters Josh 

Osborne (Kacey Musgraves, Sam Hunt et al) & Marc Beeson (Blake 

Shelton, LeAnn Rimes) ‘Wasted’ is a beautiful, poignant reflection of the 

devastating effects of addiction. 

The song was previewed to an entranced audience at Sarah’s sold out 

Christmas 2017 concert at St Pancras Old Church, where she explained it 

was possibly the most personal song she had ever written; “’Wasted’ is a 

track that is particularly personal to me as it deals with the emotional 

distress addiction causes for everyone. It’s not just the person abusing 

but also the people around.” 

“You can’t hold your whiskey and hold me too” 

Originally written when Sarah first moved to Nashville from Iowa, the 

song has remained unreleased until now, as Sarah explains “I always felt 

like it was special but didn’t know what to do with it. Maybe because the 

subject is so heavy I stopped playing it, but somehow those special tunes 

always find their way.”

An emotional loss of love. 

A low, reflective voice. 

A soothing piano. 

Although it’s hard to walk away, I’ll learn to love again another 

day. 

The mood changes. We see the light in the distance. A passionate 

strength finds the vocals, the beat kicks in and we feel the relief. 

The tracks holds a great, uplifting spirit through a difficult time 

in one’s life. The darkness needs to be cleared to make way for 

better things. This is not the end, it’s just the beginning. 

Mon Frère discuss the production a little, stating that they want 

to “keep the balance of organic and authentic with a modern pop 

driving groove.” When speaking of the theme, is is described as 

“acceptance of a deteriorating relationship.”

‘Monolith’ by Hal Stucker is a delightful piece of 

music. The enchanting twinkly elements, vivid 

energy and light tone is really very warming. 

This is the first instalment of David Forbes first 

Hal Stucker album ‘Electronic Excursions’ 

(forthcoming on Pure Progressive in a couple of 

months time). The Hal Stucker sound is dance 

legend David Forbes (Public Domain, Optimus, 

Active Force, Tekra, Arkadi etc.) exploring his 

progressive side; deep, emotive, melodic, 

expertly crafted dance music. Nestling into a 

120bpm groove, Monolith expresses it’s 

midnight mood by way of lush pads, cavernous 

vocal-clip reverbs, glittering arpeggiated 

sequences, subterranean bass tones and an 

expertly crafted arrangement. This is a fabulous 

taster of what is to come. 

A deep and wondrous journey. The duo delivers 

progressions through dark and alone/solemn 

moods to a more inquisitive state of mind. 

Two brilliant deep progressive cuts here from 

Russia’s Slam Duck. PT I of ‘Mercury’ opens with 

moody tones, filtered beats and growling bass. 

Fluttery synths & metallic atmospheric swells 

escalate throughout until a sweeping filtering 

lead opens up at the break. Mercury PT. II is all 

about the mutating, throbbing acidic bass line 

which propels this beauty forward. The rattling 

808 percussion is sharp & precise whilst 

cavernous reverbs saturate the mix. Lush.

‘Dreamcatcher’ by OMAIR feat. Hydra is a wonder. A hard exterior of the main 

pumping beat is softened with the intricate strings and a cultural percussion. 

The beautiful voice takes us through with a powerful yet alluring tone. 

The winds of change have swept in like a thief in the night for Omair Mirza as 

the anticipation reaches a fever pitch, setting the trance family abuzz with 

speculation surrounding his sudden and curious social media silence. With a 

drive to answer his hearts call, Omair Mirza has set out to explore a fresh 

vision for his future leading him to reshape the intense melodies and 

rhythms that call us all together to the dance floor. To set the wheels in 

motion Omair Mirza has broken his silence, teasing the world with a snippet 

of sound smothered in soul gripping melody, thus culminating in the fullfledged 

deliverance and spiritual awakening of “Dreamcatcher” featuring 

the blissful and undeniably mesmerizing vocal stylings of Hydrah! With the 

official release set for March 9, 2018, 'Dreamcatcher' will be the dynamic 

musical offering that will lead us into the brand new and electrifying era of... 

Omair. 

Enter the world of “Dreamcatcher” where the spirits unite to comfort and 

protect all who turn their ear to the hypnotic sounds that flood effortlessly 

through the airwaves. With a driving bassline, we are met with strums of 

Spanish guitar as Hydrah’s siren inspired vocal detail welcomes us into a 

portal of pure and unadulterated bliss. As the flowing melody gives way to a 

crescendo of body grooving trance energy, the only thing left to do is reach 

to the heavens and allow the rhythm to lead you into a full emotional 

release. 

Ramping up the intensity and twisting the rhythm with a touch of tribal 

detail and heavier synth structures, the mysterious and ever elusive Kaneis 

hits the floor running with a peak hour extended remix designed for some 

serious main stage debauchery! Holding true to “Dreamcatcher”s hypnotic 

essence, Kaneis captures the raw spirit of dance, taking revelers on a journey 

through a subconscious dream state as Hydrah’s comforting voice cloaks the 

soul with passionate longing and desire. 

Omair’s “Dreamcatcher” marks the beginning of a spectacular movement of 

sound evolution, defining the very essence of OHM Music and the brand’s 

vision to unleash music free of boundaries but packed full of soul and 

creative edge. So, come with Omair as he embarks on his quest to light up 

the dance floor, freeing the subconscious for a romp within an alternate 

dimension of sound!

‘Dreamyness’ by Arggic is a lovely bright production. The catchy rhythm 

maintains your attention on the dance floor. The gem of the male and female 

vocal interlude is extraordinary. A lot of flavour in this track. 

Rising star Arggic is back on InfraProgressive with his brand new single 

‘Dreamyness’. After making his debut as part of our Summer Sampler in 2017 

and more recently delivering a killer remix of Sean Mathews ‘I Reckon’, Arggic 

goes back to his roots and delivers a fresh slice of progressive trance. 

‘Dreamyness’ will certainly delight the masses, thanks to its playful melody, 

uplifting summer vibe and sumptuous chords. Arggic sure knows how to craft 

those essential, smash records. 

www.infrasonicrecordings.com 


‘Can't Shake It Off’ by Husky Feat Nat Conway is a vibrant and breezy dance 

track. The soft vocals and a catchy beat bring a feelgood vibe. Of the remixes, 

Mark Di Meo stands out by adding a beautiful jazz flavour. 

Husky starts 2018 as he left off in 2017, delivering another powerful single of 

his world-class house music. This time featuring a long time friend and 

collaborator Nat Conway, who is best known for her work with industry 

heavyweights like Satin Jackets and Defected Records Sonny Fodera and Sam 

Divine. 

‘Can’t Shake It Off’ explores his usual deep soul tones with snappy drums and 

clean production and highlights Nat’s incredible vocals and harmonies. The 

vocal hook is as powerful as it is delicate in it’s delivery. To put it simply, It’s a 

beautiful record. 

Remixing this fine piece of music is some of the biggest names in house at the 

moment, Alaia & Gallo. Hailing from Italy the duo deliver a club ready version 

of the track, offering their trademark production to kick things up a notch. 

Mark Di Meo from LA bring his incredible soulful touch to the remix. With live 

elements flowing through this remix it’s as organic as your chickpea burgers at 

the local vegan restaurant. Timeless music creation from Mark here, and we’re 

sure it will tickle any classic soulful house lover. 

Finally Husky also gives his own record a rework, mutating the vocal and 

stripping the song back for a classic M1 organ bass club smash.
