When Canadian report producer Kaytranada walked away with the Grammy for Finest Dance / Digital Album in 2021, it felt like the start of a strategy of reclamation that will see home and dance music return to the palms of its Black pioneers. To this, Kaytranada is crucial. His music just isn’t a lot ‘home’ per se as it’s extra in step with the style bending experiments of Nicolás Jaar, however it comes slightly definitively from Black historical past and tradition. On his newest single Twin Flame, he ropes in fellow visionary and collaborator Anderson .Paak on a home monitor that oozes by means of hip-hop, R&B, and soul.
Twin Flame builds itself round a looped piano chorus, which in opposition to a gradual 4 on the ground sounds enormously epic. The monitor surges right into a soulful funk groove, with .Paak providing rapped verses throughout Kaytranada’s groove inflected soundscape. The synergy between the 2 artists is palpable and presumably essentially the most joyous factor about Twin Flame. .Paak and Kaytranada really feel intrinsic as a duo, and depart us wanting extra from the opportunity of a long run inventive partnership.
