Track Of The Day 7/12 – Dua Lipa

'Be The One' (Ten Ven Remix)

What supplies the soundtrack when androids sleep?

It's a question that pops up when listening to Dua Lipa. Dreamy, blissful pop music, it's constructed digitally with swathes of synths dazzling as her voice dips and falls.

Fresh from her appearance on the BBC Sound Of 2016 poll new single 'Be The One' impacts on December 18th, and it's an inspirational return that draws on the singer's experiences this year.

Dua Lipa explains: "'Be The One' is to me a lot about self-belief, perseverance and fighting for what you want. In this instance it’s about a relationship but really this is an attitude I try to bring in everything in my life."

Clash is able to premiere the Ten Ven remix, and it spins 'Be The One' in a more up front, dancefloor-driven direction. Laced with colour, you can tune in below.
