Grid is happy to release a summer anthem, the undeniable dancefloor filler ‘Dance Hall Again’, which sees lauded UK bass veterans DJ POLO & Breaka teaming up with the man, the legend Swordman Kitala !
DJ Polo and Breaka link up on production duties, crafting a perfectly executed Amapiano and Dancehall infused riddim. This bass-bin rattling production creates the ideal balance of dancefloor potency and an open canvas for Swordman Kitala’s killer vocal stylings to float on top with ease. Kitala delivers a fiendishly infectious hook on ‘Dance Hall Again’ with a relaxed swagger that ducks and weaves around gut-punching rhythms to devastating effect.
This original track comes with two remixes, by UK Funky legend Bakongo (aka Roska Kicks & Snares) and French producers & Stacktrace. Bakongo flips the already dancefloor-ready track into an irresistible and undeniably UK percussion workout destined for day-party hysteria, proving once again that this veteran of the scene has and always been the master of his genre. If Bakongo’s remix is the day, Kaval & Stacktrace’s epic re-imagining is the night… with the Toulouse based producers flipping ‘Dance Hall Again’ into a hot-blooded and atmospheric late-night mover that is guaranteed to bewitch crowds.
