Seasoned producers Kenny Summit and Roberto Rodriguez have come together for ‘Body Shine’ out now via Dirtybird Records.
Both legends in their own right, Kenny Summit and Roberto Rogriguez have made their Dirtybird debut with an entrancing track. Starting with a continuous heavy beat, ‘Body Shine’ swerves through carefully curated basslines, a bouncy countermelody, and electrifying breakdowns. A hypnotizing, non-stop heater, ‘Body Shine’ is guaranteed to be played in clubs and festivals around the globe.
“Working with Roberto has been incredibly satisfying. He has a unique ability to source sounds that compliment my vocals while keeping things tastefully underground. Being able to write and perform my own songs is something I’ve been looking forward to for a long time now and I’m excited to see this jam roll out on the mighty Dirtybird imprint.” – Kenny Summit
“Working with Kenny is super easy and inspiring, as I think we share very similar tastes, sensibilities and optimism regarding music. We’re roughly the same age so I think there’s a shared love of the music that came before. When Kenny sent me the early demo of ‘Body Shine’, I instantly recognized what the track was all about. Everything after that came naturally and effortlessly. I’ve been a big fan of Dirtybird for ages. I’m super excited to see the track come out on the label.” – Roberto Rodriguez
