Ten years after their acclaimed “Over & Over” EP, which earned spins on BBC Radio 1Xtra and features on Soulection, the absolute dream team El Train (@eltrainmusic) and Miki Rose (@mikirosedoesmusic) have returned with “Twin Flame,” a lush, futuristic R&B slow-dance track that captures the warmth and intimacy of their songwriting while pushing into new sonic territory. The track is the lead single from their forthcoming follow-up EP.
El Train and Miki Rose – “Twin Flame” Single
“Twin Flame” showcases Miki Rose’s ethereal vocals layered over El Train’s inventive production, creating a sound that is simultaneously nostalgic and forward-looking. Fans of their previous work will recognize the duo’s talent for crafting immersive atmospheres and emotionally resonant melodies, now expanded with a decade of growth and experimentation.
In his own words, El Train elaborates, “‘Twin Flame’ actually started as a remix I put together just for SoundCloud, but I loved the instrumental so much I sent it over to Miki. She jumped into the studio with her friend Ramera, and together they wrote what I honestly think is her best song yet. To finish things off, I called in my long-time collaborator, goodie bags, who sprinkled in those trademark horns. For me, it’s the perfect end-of-summer track – best enjoyed with a cocktail in hand as the sun sets.”
Overall, “Twin Flame” continues El Train and Miki Rose’s signature fusion of soulful vocals and forward-thinking production, blending the emotive textures of R&B with experimental electronic soundscapes that have become their hallmark.
Miki Rose
Miki Rose’s first introduction to the world was her collaborative EP, “Over & Over,” with El Train. The project landed on the Spotify UK playlist upon release and hit #4 on the R&B UK charts. So far, Miki has amassed over 100k TikTok followers and continues to develop her style, boasting over five million streams. Also, her songs have been on official Spotify playlists such as R&B UK, New Dance Revolution, Dance List, and Apple Music’s Best Of The Week in the UK and Japan.
Miki’s strong songwriting skills have led to co-written songs appearing in Netflix’s Honey 4, starring Teyana Taylor. Miki’s recent EP, “Nomad Diaries Vol. 1,” was named one of BBC 1xtra’s Jamz Supernova’s Top 5 EPs of the Week, and songs were added to the H&M in-store playlist worldwide. Also, Miki has been a guest on and received continued airplay support from stations like BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio London, Westside FM, Foundation FM, Soho Radio, KROQ, Rinse FM, BBC 1xtra, Reprezent Radio, and Dash Radio. Recently, Miki’s songs have been played on Soulection Radio on Beats 1 on Apple Music.
El Train
One of the UK scene’s brightest emerging producers, El Train is making serious waves on both sides of the Atlantic, on the radar of cult US collective Soulection as well as a host of press/online tastemakers for his recent releases. With a growing collaboration list that counts some of the hottest emerging UK talent in Pip Millett, Sam Wills, Iyamah, Age of L.U.N.A., Jerome Thomas, Cold Callers, Kudu Blue, and many more, El Train continues to cement his reputation as one of the hottest UK artists/producers to watch right now.
Over the past ten years, El Train and Miki Rose have continued to create across continents – trading beats and vocal ideas online, jumping on flights to work in person, and building a partnership that has grown from collaborators into close friends. Their creative dynamic thrives on contrast – Miki’s unfiltered enthusiasm for every idea set against El Train’s relentless instinct to refine until the music feels just right.
After sifting through years of demos and writing fresh material, they selected a set of tracks that not only nod to the spirit of their original EP but also reflect the evolution of their sound and bond. The result is “Over & Over Again,” an EP born from a decade of shared history, countless sessions, creative disagreements, and an enduring trust that keeps them returning to the studio, time and time again.
