Luude & Issey Cross – Oh My (feat. Moby) [Warner/Sweat It Out]
Australian drum and bass hitmaker Luude kicks off 2023 with the release of highly anticipated new single with UK vocal talent Issey Cross, ‘Oh My’ feat. Moby. The first D&B DJ to have two top 10 hits in the UK for 8 years, over the last 12 months Luude has solidified his position as one of the hottest electronic acts. With over 400 million streams across his releases, he has been non-stop dominating charts and stages around the globe with his unmatched production prowess and raucous live sets.
Now joining forces with singer/songwriter Issey Cross, he continues to demonstrate a flair for creating timeless musical moments. Set atop Luude’s signature stirring percussion is Moby’s classic ‘Porcelain’ strings, an icon in its own right, now transformed and energised for a new generation. Issey Cross’ alluring vocals gliding seamlessly between the two, the musical glue between two eras. With a rare power and passion present throughout, Luude is hungry and ready for more as he takes the next step on his journey to global domination.
Talking about the track, Luude says, “When Moby sent me the stems to this I honestly couldn’t believe it, it’s such an iconic record and sample – I really didn’t want to do much to it, the drums just sit on it nicely to give it a fresh take for new dancefloors.” Issey added, “I was hearing Big City Life everywhere and was a fan of what Luude was doing already so when he reached out I was excited to work with him. I love 90’s music and nostalgic sounding stuff so when Luude sent me this Moby track as an instrumental my mind was buzzing with ideas for it straight away.”
The track has received an enthusiastic seal of approval from Moby: “I’d love to say something smart or insightful about ‘Oh My,’ but honestly when I first heard it I simply thought, ‘fuck, this is great!’ ”
