Laidback Luke & Roland Clark share “Praise To The Bass”
Available now on Dim Mak
Electronic music grandmasters Laidback Luke and Roland Clark combine on “Praise To The Bass,” their pure House banger with a deep bassline and entrancing vocal sermon. Taking it to the underground and celebrating the power of bass, something we all undoubtedly love, “Praise To The Bass” is an ode to just that.
In Luke’s words, “I had made a bass-driven house track, and its DNA hints at my Chicago-inspired roots. But most importantly, there's a section in the track that's just kick and bass. In my opinion and experience, it is one of the simplest yet effective methods to move a dance floor. Roland picked up fabulously on this. I've always loved his vocals and the iconic feel to them.”
Roland adds, “I wrote ‘Praise To The Bass’ because something like the bass in a dance record is the driving force to most of the music we create; it’s the foundation of the culture.
“Praise To The Bass” follows Laidback Luke’s collaboration with his 21-year-old son “One on One” earlier this year. There’s a reason this legend is known for cranking out consistent bangers.
“Praise To The Bass” is out now on Dim Mak.
