Making waves since the release of their previous single ‘MOON’, boundary-pushing duo MAYFLOW have shown no signs of slowing down as they look to take the year by storm. Returning with their latest, dynamic single, ‘BTY’, the outfit keep rolling on their exciting, upward trajectory.
Bringing the track to life via a dynamic, percussive start, ‘BTY’ highlights the group’s experimental tendencies. Forging sticky melodies with bouncing basslines and distorted synthesis, the single sits at the crossroads of left-field electronica and contemporary alternative pop. Penned about the bitterness of modern life, and humanity’s constant search for belonging, the track offers introspective insights whilst delivering alluring sonic sentiments.
Explaining the themes laced into the track, the outfit explains, “This is a track about yearning, desire and frustration – what the soundtrack of a drunk drive in the night filled with bad intentions would sound like. Seeking for a little warmth, a little human connection in this cold nihilist world, but always looking for it in the wrong places. The universal need that we all share of feeling important for somebody is heartbreakingly and persistently unmet.”
Born during the midst of the COVID-19 lockdown, MAYFLOW is a project that fuses dance and hip-hop to carve a distinct sound. Since meeting online, the band is made up of producer Mayford Fox and the mysterious masked vocalist LowKey. Since debuting in 2021, the pair have released four singles. Tackling a wide spectrum of themes throughout their songwriting, the duo present the likes of mental health, self-acceptance and the nihilism of modern life. Gearing up for 2025, the outfit prepares for a busy year with new music quickly on the horizon.
