Not too long ago, Tom & Collins (@tomandcollins) recruited AMÉMÉ (@amemedj) for the two powerhouse’s debut joint release, “Ando-High.” The collaboration, released via Insomniac Records, showcases the Mexico City Tech-House titans’ and the West African-bred, Brooklyn-based, burgeoning Afro-House producer’s sounds.
Tom & Collins and AMÉMÉ – “Ando High” single
“Ando High” sees a seamless synergy between two of the world’s top acts in contemporary Afro-House and Latin Tech-House resulting in a striking hybrid single. With both acts hailing from countries rich in native culture, “Ando High” is a Latin and Afro melting pot. The track revolves around a naughty Spanish vocal hook that’s complemented with clever hand percussion, clattering accents, brooding pad swells, and a slinky synth lead.
While in the studio after recording the high vibrational vocal track for “Ando High,” Tom & Collins thought the song could shine its brightest built on a Latin-Afro house foundation. Bringing AMÉMÉ’s expertly executed, flourishing tribal percussion to the track birthed a result that’s fiery, multi-cultural, and brimming with both acts’ signature sounds.
“Ando High” exemplifies the finest from both Tom & Collins’ and AMÉMÉ’s creative arsenals. With the track presenting a mosaic of international influences, the three artists found a seamless synergy that fans can surely expect to hear again in future collaborations that bear both their names.
