One cool thing about being a full-time blogger is that, over time, I get to watch bands evolve.
Way back in February of 2014, RAEKO (who happens to be one third of Sir Sly), started out with a couple remixes. They did well within their own rights, but it wasn't until July of this year that he decided to venture into the original-material game (with a single featuring Mating Ritual).
Today we're stoked to bring you RAEKO's second original single, this time with Maya Tuttle on the vocals. Don't recognize her name? She's the drummer and co-vocalist for The Colourist, so that might help connect some dots...
Together, the pair have crafted a modern-sounding electronic single that couldn't be more different to RAEKO's first few remixes. The result is a solid indicator that Jason Suwito is well-positioned for success beyond Sir Sly, and speaks to my opening statement about how rad it is to watch artists shape their sound.
