UPFRONTBEATS

OC & Verde made a splash on Yoshitoshi last summer with their huge remix of Veerus’s “Beat That,” topping the progressive house charts. Yoshitoshi knew it was only a matter of time before they invited them back for a proper single. Not only did they deliver something spectacular, they did it with the help of one of Yoshitoshi’s favorite up-and-coming duos, Londoners Eli & Fur.

“Sweet Perfection” delivers the goods with the boys’ glistening production and the girls’ gorgeous vocals. The track is at once deep, driving, and enticing, a fine effort from two of the UK’s most exciting acts and a fitting release to help kick off 2018. We’ve also included their ‘Stranger Things’ dub, which strips the original of its vocal for a darker affair.

Label boss Sharam contributes what is already his second remix of 2018, continuing the signature sound he put forth on his recent Collecti album. His remix is a groovy techno journey laced with his signature drum n’ bass and melodic influences, creating a dynamic dance floor weapon. Sharam also offers a ‘Crazi dub’ incarnation of his remix, which draws more from the head-turning techno side of his production prowess.
