Track Of The Day 11/9 – MNEK

'Wrote A Song About You' (Kaytranada Edition)

Still in his teens, MNEK already finds himself at the centre of a rush for his voice.

The rising songwriter has penned smash hit material for the likes of Duke Dumont and Rudimental, but it's what he's kept in reserve, for his own output which truly excites.

New single 'Wrote A Song About You' is out now, a glorious piece of bass-led pop which effortlessly fuses underground dance culture with relentless pop flair.

Recruiting a hand-picked batch of guest producers, the obligatory remixes are – typically – much more than mere cast offs.

Montreal's Kaytranada is a firm Clash favourite, and his lush, dextrous, fluoro-soaked remix gently nudges MNEK in a fresh direction.

Underlining the London artist's potential dexterity, you can tune in below.

MNEK is set to play Hackney's Oslo venue TONIGHT as part of the Clash x Electric Selection series – for more information click HERE.
