Schauspieler, Produzent, Rapper und DJ extraordinaire IDRIS hat mit seiner neuen Single ‚No Long Talk‘ jetzt bei Dirtybird Records gelandet. ‚No Long Talk‘ wird zusammen mit einem offiziellen Remix von GAWP veröffentlicht.
‚No Long Talk‘ ist ein würziges Club-Stück, das IDRIS‘ unbestreitbare Coolness mit der charismatischen Natur des Katalogs von Dirtybird kombiniert. Mühelos smooth, ‚No Long Talk‘ prahlt mit einer kühnen Topline von T.O.K’s Alx The One zwischen hüpfenden Basslinien und überschwänglichen Percussions, während IDRIS UK- und Afro-House-Elemente umarmt. ‚No Long Talk‘ wird mit GAWPs tiefem Tech-Remix geliefert, der die energetischen Rhythmen des Originals gegen dunklere Underground-Töne eintauscht. Als IDRIS‘ Debüt bei Dirtybird ist ‚No Long Talk‘ ein Zeugnis für den Einfluss des Labels in der Tanzmusik seit fast 20 Jahren.
„Ein Release auf Dirtybird zu haben, ist ein Traum, der für mich wahr geworden ist. Ich drehe schon seit Jahren Dirtybird-Platten.“ – IDRIS
