ANOTR’s No Art imprint releases one of its most requested tracks to date
Amsterdam duo Makèz link up with LA’s Life On Planets for the long-awaited release of ‘Downstream’.
The term ‘track of the summer’ tends to be thrown around a lot nowadays, but it’s safe to say that its use for this record is most certainly warranted as No Art founders ANOTR bring one of their most-requested IDs ever to the label just in time to soundtrack those late summer months. With the vocal hook, “Lil’ Mama spend some time with me?” already sung by sell-out crowds across the globe, and early fans ranging from BBC Radio 1 royalty Pete Tong to UK house legend Mr. G, it’s no surprise that the anticipation has had thousands talking for months on end.
Enter Amsterdam-based pairing Makèz (Sonic Soil/Heist/Let’s Play House) and Los Angeles’ finest Life On Planets (Soul Clap/Classic Music Company), with the three presenting the feel-good, funk-driven sonics of ‘Downstream’ - a heavily-awaited anthem sending dancefloors into a frenzy. From the now instantly recognisable lyrics to the crisp rolling drums, classy chords and jazz-tinged melodies, it’s an instant classic and a track set to wormhole its way into your mind and leave you singing it through right through to the early morning hours
