After releasing dance-pop fusion "Runaway" with Sigala and JP Cooper, R3HAB's summertime anthem and the first track from his forthcoming 3rd album, it receives a unique remix from upcoming sensations Weird Genius. The original's soulful vocals still shine through on the opening, but the twist comes in Weird Genius's gritty, bass-centric touch. The talented newcomers incorporate stabbing synths and wobbly basslines that lend a darker but still high-energy element to the track. If the original serves as a heartfelt and inspiring message about chasing your dreams, Weird Genius's remix is the after-dark version where those dreams become hedonistic temptations.
The Indonesia-based trio has been making waves across Southeast Asia. In 2020 they released "Hush" with Yellow Claw, which is currently at 12M streams on Spotify, and signed with Astralwerks with "LATHI" (currently 53M streams on Spotify and over 200M across all platforms). "LATHI"'s global popularity trained all eyes on Weird Genius, and we can't wait to see what they do next as they expand their global imprint by partnering with heavyweights like R3HAB, who was the first major artist to recognize Weird Genius's talent, and officially remixed "LATHI."
