lau.ra x Rye Rye - I See You (Junior Simba Remix)
Since the inception of this project by Laura Bettinson in 2019, lau.ra has garnered support from all around the globe - Laura has previously featured on tracks by Sasha, Maribou State and David Lynch and is now putting her love for DJing and producing to good use as she delves deeper into her world of 'wonky electronica'.
Junior Simba is a breaking DJ and producer who’s sound truly draws from the elements of his rich musical background. He brings a vibrant, groove heavy rhythm to his sets, with an energy that sits somewhere between Overmono and Jayda G. Originally from Zimbabwe, Junior was brought up surrounded by the sounds of Rhumba, Kwaito and Afro-house. Once exposed to the UK electronic scene when he moved to Leeds in his late teens, his passion for producing and DJing really took flight. These distinctive influences combined create an abundance of inspiration, merging into a sound sitting somewhere between dark, tense amapiano and cosmic, zero-G Afrobeat, all wrapped with levels and levels of futuristic soul. Junior Simba seems like a perfect match for lau.ra's I See You. This is a true remix, taking the fundamental vocal hook and melodies from I See You and transforming them into an atmospheric dance floor hit. Coupling pads, synths and a relentless beat with lau.ra's superb vocals, Junior Simba has chosen his samples carefully and sent us on a path no one expected. This path is a dreamy house tune which is equally as good for chilling out at home as it is in the world's biggest clubs. I See You is originally an intense electronic tune, but this remix puts the creativity of the electronic music world at the forefront and this is a special remix.
