Working with friends in the music industry can sometimes be a tumultuous journey. After first hearing DAD on Joshua Francois’ ‘Blue Suitcase‘ earlier last year, Lucchii instantly fell in love with his infectious vocals and immediately sent him a message praising his sound and potential. Since becoming acquainted, the two have become great friends, with Lucchii stating “I felt if we got the right project going it could be an awesome, unique result.”
The difference in styles between the two artists was not evident to overcome, though. “As I said before, I was going into writing a song for Mike (DAD) kind of nervous just because his voice has a pop-ish kind of sound that I never really worked with before. Most of my stuff being fairly dark, I went into it as open as possible and just let the ideas flow,” Lucchii continues. “About a week later, I had a pretty awesome idea going and shot it Mike’s way. He loved it. Upon finishing the magic on his end, he let me know that he had to transpose the song up around 4 semitones due to his voice not being able to hit that low of a register. Unfortunately, with drops written and most of the instrumental already mixed, it was a nearly impossible change for me to make on my end. I assured him in his nervousness that we would not waste the amazing performance he delivered. I ended up starting new and writing around his vocals and behold, ‘Chøsen Ønes,’” Lucchii’s latest that we are ecstatic to premiere today, out now on Music High Court.
Continuing to build on his newfound sound, the Las Vegas-based producer keeps his momentum from ‘Legacy‘ and ‘Løst‘ alive with ‘Chøsen Ønes.’ The experienced sound designer pushed his boundaries to new limits with this track, wrapping DAD’s poignant lyrics in an ethereal soundscape so versatile that the direction of the impending drop is unknown until it hits. When it does, listeners are thrown into limbo, with dark synths and undertones contrasted by the upbeat vocal chops and punchy percussion.
With Lucchii promising ‘Chøsen Ønes’ to be only the tip of the iceberg, we’re stoked to hear what’s next from the talented producer. Until then, don’t miss his latest below and grab it here!
