Amberoom featuring Blakkat & BabyGirl - Forces Of Nature (Crosstown Rebels)

Leading electronic music trio Amberoom team up with the renowned Blakkat and LA based vocalist BabyGirl on their debut on Crosstown Rebels this May with Forces Of Nature. The single features two breakbeat house remixes from Radio Slave and a remix by Lucas Frota & Blakkat.

Amberoom discussed the collaborative nature behind the release, stating: "It’s another collaboration from a group of writers, musicians and producers based in Los Angeles and Essen (Germany), who have worked together for more than a decade. The result is a song about losing yourself in the beauty of love.”

Forces Of Nature leads the way on the A-side, melding ethereal key rolls with warming pads throughout. Lucas Frota and Blakkat’s remix soon arrives, taking on a tribal edge as safari-like drum patterns marry up next to soothing piano chimes. The B-side sets off with the first of Radio Slave’s ‘New Age Of Love’ remixes, a homage to 1990 Breakbeat House that feels perfectly placed for the forthcoming Summer of Love. Part II rounds off proceedings, opting for a breaks-heavy, hip-hop laced bassline and echoing vocal tones.

The collective have built up a steady catalogue of original EPs since 2017, releasing on several of the scene’s most well-respected labels in the form of Josh Wink’s Ovum, Dixon and me’s Innervisions as well as Adana Twins’ TAU recordings.
