House, Tech House, Trending
Tyler Coey has already told his Clarisse charges to 'Let 'M Run Off', a groove to do you good with Francesco Romano. Now paired with the charmingly named Elegant Hands, who must treat turntables with only the finest sounds with a name like that, the Spaniard Coey and the handiest man from Mexico are here to tell you all about 'Tulum.'
For those who enjoy their house that goes across the border, 'Tulum' shows why the pair's credentials have been crowed about by the likes of Toolroom, Loco Dice, Marco Carola, PP Music and more.
Elegant Hands
Disciplined in energy and intent as it runs off a bassline nodding backwards to retro clubbing while maintaining a tough presence – bubbly, bouncy and ready to bear its teeth – there's every chance 'Tulum' will leave you feeling so emotional.
Made by its R&B samples that Coey and Elegant Hands spray across the mix, satisfyingly not keeping them nailed down and putting up a second-guessing singalong in the process, 'Tulum' is sure to become a tourist attraction with its straightforward set up. Vocal cuts, jacking builds and beats getting straight down to the nitty-gritty so the lyrics can do whatever they want: just add wide open windows.

Arky Waters Releases New Single "Back To You"
Arky Waters caps the year off with his new single 'Back To You' featuring the vocals of Jade Alice. This marks Arky's first collaboration with another vocalist – Jade's dream pop roots and catchy hooks move with the emotional depths of the track, capturing us through the tender and darker moments. "We made this track around COVID times, I sent her a DM and I honestly didn't expect a reply, she ended up being open to working with me even though I had nothing out at the time. I sent over an idea that she vibed with and she sent back the hook that's currently on the track. Once I heard that hook I basically ended up crafting the song around the vocal. For our first time working together it went super smooth; she's talented as hell. I'd been a fan of her stuff for a while so it was cool to finally make something together." The track is paired with a four part visualiser made by upcoming Sydney artist Don Kaiyote; the collaboration explores themes of young love, heartbreak and loneliness. "The most important part of this project was to make something that felt close to us – we wanted to capture beauty in something that was quite real and ordinary, something we've all felt before." The video takes us through the journey of young love as a person of colour growing up in western society, diving into the complexities of the modern-day "situationship" and the feelings that revolve around that behind closed doors. Arky Waters is a Sydney based artist exploring his early love for indie/folk with the electronic textures of rave music. Starting in 2020,it began as an outlet from his usual work with alt-rock band 'Silvers', and soon blossomed into its own project as he found his feet in production. The songs act as a soundtrack to his life growing up in the suburbs of Australia, bridging the gap between indie/folk songwriting and the pulse of electronic music.

Get Set To 'Fly Away' With Dave Winnel's Latest Dance Anthem
Sydney's own Dave Winnel has been going from strength to strength this year. With a string of singles under his belt, a scene-stealing triple j Like A Version, plus touring for Listen Out, there's no slowing down for the DJ/producer. Now Dave Winnel releases his new single 'Fly Away'. Co-written with KLP, 'Fly Away' combines super catchy vocals (from KLP also) with tribal rhythms, knocking drums and a prominent live trombone – all jammed with Dave's signature production style. "KLP has always been on top of my 'Artists I Want To Collab With list'," explains Dave. "But I was always scared to actually hit her up to make it happen. Luckily though, she Shazamed one of my tunes off the radio and she hit me up instead. I sent her a very rough instrumental idea which featured the big synth horns and strings backed to the big tribal drums. She came back pretty fast with an epic vocal, adding a monster gang vocal chant over the groove and adding a huge thick layer of harmonies to the breaks. Because the vocal is so large and full of layers, I didn't need to add many more instruments. I did however want to give the track a more organic and natural sound to it, so I had a trombone player, by the name of 'Trombonhero', to re-record the trombone part. There's something special about the articulation between each note when played by a real musician that you just can't get out of a synth." 'Fly Away' is not the first time Dave Winnel and KLP have worked together. KLP featured on Dave's Like A Version earlier this year when he took on Toto's undeniable classic 'Africa' and KLP also sang on Dave's mash up of his original tracks 'CEO' & 'Jungle Juice'. Dave and KLP also went head-to-head in helping Hobba & Hing create their own DOY Supergroup entries in May of this year – but for 'Fly Away' they have combined their strengths and are on the same team! Dave Winnel has been making waves over the past two years with a string of singles, 'Real Life', 'Method', 'CEO', 'Jungle Juice' ft. Alst3n and 'Freaking Out', plus 'Hallucinations' on Deadmau5's Hau5trap imprint. If that weren't enough, he recently smashed out epic sets at Listen Out Festival and supported the Sunset Bros at their sold-out Hordern Pavilion show. Over his career Dave has collaborated with the legendary Armin Van Buuren on ´The Race´, and produced official remixes for Twenty One Pilots, David Guetta, Bastille, Anne-Marie, Clean Bandit, Hardwell, Axwell /\ Ingrosso, Adam Lambert and Galantis, proving himself to be one of Australia's most prolific electronic acts, racking up over 65 million streams on Spotify alone. Known for his infectious and fun personality that manages to shines through his music, Dave Winnel manages to blend future/tech house with organic quirky instruments. Be sure to catch Dave at one of his upcoming shows this summer.
