“Distant Shores” is a dreamy, saxophone-drenched house track oozing with balearic atmosphere, subtle breaks, and smooth synth bass. The production is a collaboration between New York house veteran Kyle Louis and Working Rhythms Records boss D.D. Curry, now based in London. They originally met in Brooklyn when Louis moved into the apartment upstairs from Curry's and bonded over the records Curry could hear through his ceiling. The pair is joined by another longtime friend, UK-via-NYC producer/DJ Panooc, who’s lent their conservatory-trained jazz sax skills to perfectly compliment the vibe.
Louis recalls, “It started off with D.D. sending me some Rhodes, bass and Panooc’s sax parts. Within a few hours, I had a mostly fleshed out track - chopping up those samples, adding a little break beat, some chunky drums and a couple new synths. I wanted it to be funky, emotional and a bit aggressive all at the same time. The title comes from Devin and I now being on separate shores after sharing Brooklyn for so long - now Brooklyn and London.”
