Australian house maestro Wax Motif makes his highly anticipated return with sophomore single alongside Portugal rising-star KURA on ‘Lo Que Soy’. It’s a smokin’ summer slammer that’s delectably garnished with a sprinkle of salsa.
‘Lo Que Soy’ weaves a hip-shaking salsa groove around a framework that’s bursting with primetime appeal. Wax Motif and KURA envelop the classic whirling percussive complexities of the polyrhythmic genre with a weighty house energy that has its footwork grounded in modern-day House. Opening with sauntering piano keys and sharp claps, the track follows the lead of its sultry yet commanding Spanish vocal hook.
Reflecting on how the track came together, collaborator KURA shares:
“Back in October, I was creating a bunch of small drafts and ideas to test during ADE, and I had a 1-minute version of a Latin groove that I decided to play during that week in Amsterdam. I’ve always been a fan of Wax’s productions and, funny enough, we ended up playing the same boat party. When I played that early draft, I saw that Wax was bouncing his head and thinking, ‘What the hell is this.” At the end of my set, we finally got the chance to meet, and we decided that we had to make something together. Wax was able to work this idea and take it to the next level, with both our styles combined. The result is the perfect combination.” – KURA
