“With ‘Distance’ my intention was to create a melodic/energetic peak time club track. It’s obviously house but I didn’t want it to sound like a classic house record, therefore I blended elements from different genres in it. I also enjoy vocal chops so it’s only normal you hear them as the main element in the drop or as backing vocals” – Matveï
Matveï is a one’s to watch of the new generation.
