For their sophomore release, Asia-based KAI & KYLE team up with New York City songwriter ASHLEY JANA for the deep and soulful release of HOME! Luscious Rhodes piano, live bass and clear and rhythmical synth hooks support Jana’s soaring vocals on the main mix for this dance floor ride. With keyboardist Selan and bassist Gene Perez, veterans of Masters at Work and Jellybean Benitez’s recording stable, KAI & KYLE harken back to the glory days of house music, when the groove had an element of old school soul and catchy songwriting ruled supreme. HOME follows KAI & KYLE’s debut success, “Love No Limit,” released on Toolroom Records in the UK, which featured remixes from Kerri Chandler, MJ Cole, Zoo Brazil and Oriental Funk Stew, and was licensed for compilations by Ministry of Sound and Toolroom’s Ibiza Mix Compilations. Teaming up with ASHLEY JANA, they bring a talent whose previous releases have seen numerous television and commercial placements and garners over 1,000,000 views on YouTube. Coming on the heels of their breakout success, KAI & KYLE’s HOME sees three fresh reworkings from New York City’s live house legends, TORTURED SOUL, with their Spanish-tinged BEACH BONFIRE MIX, high energy CLUB MIX and their dark percussion-forward DUB. Adding fuel to the fire, M-SWIFT, a #1 selling artist on Japan iTunes house charts, infuses a vibrant energy into the song with his remix. For downtempo addicts, Australia’s P.R. drops the groove into a trip hop fantasy, while the UK’s NINJURY flips the track on its heels with Atari-inspired sound FX and a subtle but twisted sense of humor.
KAI & KYLE begin 2013 with a bang–one which will continue to resonate throughout the year as they write, produce and release more collaborations, with an eye to a full-length artist collaboration before 2014.
