Silky and Dadon ft. Cari Golden “Move”

As Miami prepares to take in flocks of industry heads and party people for WMC, Canadian imprint No. 19 moves in with a 10-track pack to grease the wheels of the impending hijinks. The label calls on their roster of forward-thinking artists to deliver a strong set of original tunes in the shape of their Spring 2015 Sampler. Being issued early next week, the collection features work from label bosses Nitin and Art Department’s Jonny White, while employing contributions from mainstays Eric Volta, Guti, Louie Fresco and more.

Securing a spot on the release, Silky and Dadon pair up to promote dancefloor fulfillment through their collab “Move.” Bolstering the introspective whispers of Cari Golden, the deep cut is propelled by a dank, warehouse-directed groove. Elastic and effervescent, techy textures sit atop impeccably executed drum work. Here, Silky and Dadon prove you can practice hip gyration while achieving self-actualization.

Available March 16 via No. 19 Music.

If you were to describe this track as a scent, a signature fragrance as it were, what would it be called? If it were to have a tagline, what would it be?
Sex Panther by Odeon. “Works 60 percent of the time, every time.”

Did you discuss or exchange ideas with other producers while creating this track?
Well, I did this track as a collaboration between Dadon and Cari Golden. I started this with Dadon in Los Angeles and then finished it in my studio in London. I’ve been using a new software called SPLICE, which makes it super easy to work remotely with other people, sharing ideas, making notes and adjustments the whole way.

Do you think advances in computer technology and gear have affected your creativity?
Actually, this song was done using hardware—as opposed to specific technology associated with my laptop—and not too much hardware, either. I used only three synths for this song, and that was it. Saying that, I did just buy the new UA Apollo Twin sound card, which has in fact affected creativity massively; that thing is amazing and portable, too.

Some of the recent bits of gear I’ve bought are completely portable. The bass was from the Korg Volca synth, which is a beast, and I can take it everywhere. Technology like this means I can pretty much have my studio with me all the time!

Who is the ideal person to remix this track?
I would love to hear Radio Slave remix it. The song is already quite tracky, but I’m a big fan of his work, and I wonder how he could make it trackier and techier from what it is already!

Describe the best setting/activity to hear this track.
