Electronic music producer NETSKY releases new single “Snitch,” featuring Aloe Blacc.
“Snitch” single is a genre-crossing international expansion of NETSKY’s musical style.
“Snitch” by NETSKY featuring Aloe Blacc is a high-energy drum and bass track that blends powerful vocals with dynamic electronic production. The song kicks off with an intense, fast-paced rhythm, driven by punchy drum patterns and a pulsating bassline that immediately grabs the listener’s attention. Aloe Blacc’s soulful voice adds a rich layer of depth and emotion to the track, creating a compelling contrast with the energetic beat.
Lyrically, “Snitch” deals with themes of betrayal and loyalty. Blacc’s delivery is both assertive and emotive, as he sings about the pain and consequences of deceit. The chorus is particularly impactful, with Blacc repeatedly emphasizing the word “snitch,” highlighting the sense of betrayal that underpins the song. This repetition, combined with the song’s relentless tempo, creates a sense of urgency and intensity.
The production by NETSKY is polished and intricate, showcasing his expertise in the drum and bass genre. The track features a blend of electronic elements, including sharp synths and layered effects, which add complexity and texture to the sound. The interplay between the driving beats and Blacc’s vocals keeps the listener engaged from start to finish.
Overall, “Snitch” is a standout collaboration that combines the strengths of both NETSKY and Aloe Blacc. It is a powerful and evocative track that captures the turmoil of betrayal, set against a backdrop of exhilarating drum and bass rhythms. The song’s blend of soulful vocals and high-octane production makes it a memorable and impactful addition to the electronic music landscape.
The music producer has been one of the hottest musical experts in Belgium, for over a decade. He is known for his innovative electronic music with standout performances at Coachella, Glastonbury, Pukkelpop and more; drawing a crowd of 18,000 people at the 2017 Antwerp’s Sportpaleis Arena. NETSKY has won countless awards including highest ranking drum ‘n’ bass DJ on the popular “DJ Mag Top 100” and making history as the youngest recipient of the Flemish Culture Award for Music.
Hit songs for NETSKY include the “Rio Remix” single featuring rap artist Macklemore, which became the unofficial anthem for the Olympics in 2016. He also served as the official artist ambassador for the Belgian Olympic team. NETSKY’s recent banger, “I Don’t’ Even Know You Anymore,” featuring Brazil and hip-hop legend Lil Wayne, has 21 million Spotify streams, and received praise from Billboards, Dancing Astronaut, EDM.com and more.
Both singles will be featured on the new album “Palmtrees & Powerlines.” The single “Snitch” will have fans on the dance floor with the pair pluck of dreamy synths, bass instrumentation, and island drums with party hard, fluidity drops.
The song started in Stargate’s studio in Venice; Stargate and the producer had a studio session with Aloe Blacc, and while listening to different beats, they came across one beat that everyone collectively liked.
NETSKY said, “I would never have thought this was the kind of beat that Aloe would go for; it’s pretty different for him, but he loved it and absolutely killed the verses. I started playing it live at my shows at the beginning of this year and it got an amazing reaction so I knew I wanted to get it out in time for summer, and hopefully, you’ll hear it at a lot of festivals over the next few weeks!”
The international musician is kicking off his summer tour circulating the West coast area and ending in Europe. The tour “Netsky & Friends” star-studded line up includes Young Thug, A-Track, Alison Wonderland, Jauz, and more. The summer anthem “Snitch” single is out now.
