Listen: Rye Rye x Bullion – ‘Keep Up’

Dancehall-tinged summer banger...

Django Django's Dave MacLean has always been a dedicated vinyl fiend.

Launching his own Kick + Clap imprint, the artist has set about capturing inventive new tracks from colourful artists.

Fresh from releases involving Neil Landstrumm and UK rave legend Warlock, Kick + Clap is ready to unveil a summer banger.

Rye Rye and Bullion cross swords on 'Keep Up', a tropical-flavoured stomper which showcases some sultry dancehall moves.

Dave MacLean explains:

"I found an old MP3 player when I was back at my folks' house, in with a load of my old stuff, and it had this weird track on it… a dancehall rhythm made with a didgeridoo sample. It was labeled 'Bum Spider' and I tried for ages to google it and couldn't find anything (googling 'bum spider' brought some strange results) so I put a tweet out describing it but… nothing. Then my manager, who knows the producer Bullion, told me it was by him and that he must have sent it to me ages ago! Anyway, I called Bullion up and said I had to release this track because I'd become obsessed with it. Rye Rye came to mind immediately for a top line so I got in touch and she loved the track so got on it and came back with 'Keep Up'."
