Virgin EMI

WE SAY

Currently sitting comfortably in the Shazam Pre-Release Top 10, just added to the B list at Radio 1, B-listed too at 1Xtra and with over 1.2 million Soundcloud plays to date, this club banger from Hannah Wants and Chris Lorenzo is shaping up to be one of 2015’s first mainstream club crossover smashes. Premiered exclusively by Annie Mac back in October, it’s a great collaboration from two acts who both hail from Birmingham but who’ve carved separate individual paths on the dance scene globally. Hannah’s DJ residency at Amnesia in Ibiza became one of the island’s key events last summer and helped her win DJ Mag’s Best Breakthrough award, whilst the production skills of Chris (best known as one half of prolific jackin’ house duo Cause & Effect) have been much in demand with Skrillex joining forces with him last year and Steve Aoki inviting him to be part of his Pacha residency too. This is addictive, minimal, stripped-back house at its very best - deceptively simple but deadly in its execution. Massive.
