French DJ duo 2smile made a poignant comeback on March 29th, 2024 with their newest single, ‘Tribute To Frikkyo’, honouring the late DJ Da Frikkyo, an iconic figure in the Italian hard techno scene. With a repertoire of over 100 unreleased tracks, seamlessly blending genres and incorporating global music elements, 2smile consistently delivers top-notch, dancefloor-ready hits, bolstered by their dynamic stage presence, establishing them as one of the most promising emerging acts of the year. Building on their momentum from previous releases on their Ondawey music label, which fuse Melodic Techno, Tech House, and Afro House, 2smile’s latest release highlights their skillful production and penchant for diversity.
‘Tribute To Frikkyo’ has garnered accolades from notable figures in the industry including Laurent Garnier, Terry Francis, Deer Jade, Mike Van Brugge, Paco Osuna, Steve Lawler, and Don Diablo. Conceived on the evening of Frikkyo’s passing, the duo reminisces about their artistic journey as profoundly spiritual, evoking a sensation of being guided by an otherworldly force.
The song effortlessly merges electrifying guitars and lush basslines with sampled vocals from the iconic Fela Kuti. This amalgamation of components results in a mesmerising auditory journey, commemorating the life and impact of a cherished comrade.
