Seattle-based downtempo/future bass duo Odesza have very quickly reached a considerable fan base over their short time as an outfit. 2014 saw the release of their sophomore album, In Return, and in the months to follow they’ve played sold out shows at nightclubs, venues and festivals across the world.
In conjunction with the announcement that they will release a deluxe edition of the same album in September, the duo have put out “Light,” a brand-new track featuring Little Dragon vocalist Yukimi Nagano.
Nagano’s contribution beautifully compliments the effervescent synth work of the track, which showcases the outfit’s melodic prowess. It’s commonly known that Odesza use live controllers to perform every track spontaneously, jamming out each part and improvising it in the moment – and the structure of the “Light” certainly lends itself to that if you know what you’re listening for.
The deluxe edition of In Return will also feature live recordings of “IPlayYouListen,” “Bloom” and “SayMyName” in addition to “Light.” It’s currently slated for release on September 18th, with a 10″ vinyl record coming out on November 1st.
Listen to Odesza‘s “Light” featuring Little Dragon above and look out for the deluxe edition of In Return next month.
