Soulful drum & bass sorcerer Mitekiss is back on the south London imprint Hospital Records with his latest single ‘Mortala’, featuring stunning vocal performances from Emiko and Duskee. Warming us up with his last single before his highly awaited second album project coming in February 2022, Mitekiss continues to propel himself forward off the successes of his most recent releases including ‘Seventeen (feat. Pixie Cola)’ which garnered support from High Contrast, DJ Marky, FD, BCee and Urbandawn, as well as LSB favourite ‘City Angels (feat. Milo Merah and d.e.o.n)’, which also received love from the likes of Shy FX, London Elektricity, Hybrid Minds, Nu:Tone, DJ Ron and more.
In true Mitekiss fashion, ‘Mortala’ is a deep liquid number with eloquent piano chords, soothing synths, mesmerising pads and the magical vocal pairing of Duskee and Emiko. Mitekiss continues to pave the way for the new generation of liquid drum & bass, infusing his own tastemaking abilities into his own music. The raw emotive lyrics from the drum and bass wordsmith Duskee intertwine effortlessly with the West-London based up and coming singer Emiko’s powerful vocals and melodic tones.
Alongside dropping his own drum & bass gems, Mitekiss runs the esteemed label Goldfat alongside Mr Porter which has seen releases from the likes of Winslow, Athena and Digital Native. With an impressive selection of soulful masterpieces under his belt on Hospital, Shogun, Goldfat and Skankandbass, ‘Mortala’ is yet another staggering addition to his creative output.
Released November 5, 2021 on Hospital Records.
