The South London producer takes Toddla T’s latest creation to the club.
Toddla T Sound is a collective made up of Toddla T, garage vocalist Shola Ama, reggae artist Serocee and DRS. Earlier this year, the group premiered ‘Worst Enemy’, a song that fits nicely in the world of Southern hip-hop-inflected R&B, thick with purple synths and those ubiquitous snare rolls.
On his remix of ‘Worst Enemy’, Deadboy reaches for the ecstatic vibe of Baltimore club, layering in breakbeats and an undeniable kick, but he doesn’t stop there: rubbery garage basslines and rave-nostalgic touches reveal new energy in the surprisingly inert original.
