With the launch of their Sound Collective last November, Smirnoff has positioned themselves as significant patrons of interesting electronic music. In partnership with MIXMAG, the Collective came together to sequester Amtrac with vocalist Meli — who had never met before — in a studio located in Joshua Tree, California with no limits or instructions on what they could produce.
The result of this experiment is a new original “Some of them.” In many ways a fully modern production, you can sense that the producer and singer felt deeply inspired by past works. The two seem to have cherry picked their favorite elements from previous tracks and morphed them into a contemporary, funky package. Amtrac’s abilities are always a treat but it is Meli’s vocals, at times sweet and others raw and rippling with intense emotion, that truly carry the track.
Released via Amtrac’s OPENERS imprint, you can stream “Some of them” below.
