HotLap, Ajna (BE), Benni Ola, Samm (BE) 'Back Up' on Magnifik Music
HotLap, Ajna (BE), Benni Ola and Samm (BE) debut as a quartet with their new release 'Back Up' on Magnifik Music.
'Back Up' pairs rolling drums with a sweeping hook and a catchy, restrained vocal element that is allowed to feel like something of a mantra. Percussion keeps the track in a tight, linear movement while washes of bright pad work add drama up top. It is the harmonic layer that does the work here, with the busy drum figure kept flat in the mix beneath; energy stays high but things never spill over into overt brightness, a polished and satisfying dancefloor sound.
The release is the 12th of 2025 for Magnifik Music with 13 more promised before the year is out, and follows a line of singles that have seen the label sharpen its focus on melodic house and techno.
