Yellowclaw’s record label, BARONG FAMILY, reveals their latest offering: a speaker-eviscerating track titled “Unravel” by Dirty Audio and ETC!ETC!, featuring vocals from Dani King. Fiery trap balances out emotional verses. Dani King sings over piano chords and hi-hats, bearing her heart on her sleeve discussing a toxic relationship causing her to “Unravel” with anxiety. Then, Dirty Audio and ETC!ETC! ramp the track into overdrive with a maddening, quavering breakdown. Certain to set the crowd ablaze, “Unravel” arrives just in time for the festival mainstages this summer!

Pack Records presents “chasing highs,” a soulful drum and bass track produced by Maya Randle and highlighted with INDI’s throaty singing voice.
