Artist: PLS&TY, Sofiya Nzau
Title: Your Love
Label: Self-release
Release date: August 18, 2023
PLS&TY is wasting no time after the release of his "3 Days, 2 Nights" EP last month, already back with another new single in the form of "Your Love," a uniquely addictive global dance gem. The track is a fusion of tech and deep house, tribal music, and both Swahili and English vocals by Kenyan singer Sofiya Nzau. Her Swahili choral performance is a stunningly ethereal, wild soliloquy that will ignite the fire of your heart, especially when paired with PLS&TY's diverse production prowess that rides on deep, groovy basslines and danceable tribal melodies. "Your Love" signifies PLS&TY's growth as an artist post "3 Days, 2 Nights," indicating that he's only getting started with the new and unexpected sonic styles. Read on for more inspiration behind "Your Love":
"The '3 Days, 2 Nights' project reignited a fire within that had been, admittedly, waning, and stands on new ground for the PLS&TY sound moving forward. I also believe that with '3 Days, 2 Nights,' listeners caught a glimpse into the PLS&TY sound no longer being confined by any one genre or style. Now, 'Your Love' kickstarts a new chapter of the post-EP dose of music that entails primarily club & DJ-set-focused material. 'Your Love' is unique in that the vocals are sung largely in Swahili, and extends well across continents and borders." - PLS&TY
