The three-minute observe is a superb mixture of each artists’ types, G Jones’ iconic synth stabs and ISOxo’s percussion-soaked drops. Every artist left a chunk of their soul inside this collab and with each pay attention, increasingly delicate parts rise to the service, to not point out the impact it has on the group when really performed out reside.
