“Out My Head” pulsates with an immersive blend of electrifying beats and an irresistible rhythm. From the very first note, listeners are propelled into a whirlwind, as Topic and A7S expertly craft a symphony that seamlessly marries the nostalgia of the past with a modern twist. The Afro-house sample from Malian singer-songwriter Salif Keita’s seminal release ‘Madan’ gives things a dynamic energy before being slowly overtaken by A7S’s emotional vocals that ring out throughout the track. With an infectious hook and soaring synths, “Out My Head” transports listeners to another realm, showcasing the remarkable talent and creativity of these two artists.
”It’s been two years since our collab on ‘Kernkraft 400 (A Better Day)’ and we wanted to come back and create something together that felt fresh. We wanted this track to be a perfect bridge from our previous work – but that feels new and exciting at the same time which is how the African sample of ‘Madan’ (Salif Keita) came into play. I’m excited to play this one out at the Summer parties!” Quote from A7S.
