Tchami Remixes Justin Martin’s “Stay” Into Tech-Funk House Thumper
“Stay” is from Martin’s newly minted What To Do label. Future house boss Tchami stepped in to remix Justin Martin‘s recent single “Stay,” featuring Dalilah. “Stay” was Martin’s release this year from his newly minted What To Do label. Martin, a Dirtybird pioneer, diverged from his known wonky bass beats to launch the deep house imprint back in January. Tchami gives the song a lighter, upbeat house iteration, twisting the original track’s heavy bass with some funk. Amped percussion drives the familiar voice to a faster pace and higher octave. It’s a dance floor-perfected house track that rings true to Tchami’s signature energetic style. “My new label What To Do is all about exploring uncompromised creativity...
