After releasing ‘The Primitives’, a collaboration with Otto Orlandi on Gareth Emery’s Garuda imprint early this year, Taao returns with only his second output of 2017, ‘Untouchable’ ft. Christina Novelli, opting to focus on quality over quantity in an already over-saturated market and simultaneously demonstrating Taao’s switch in sound to a more pop-focused, mature output.
Drafting in the expertise of Christina Novelli, the track makes the most of the Brit’s instantly memorable vocal to lead the track, giving it a pop sensibility that hasn’t been seen on previous Taao Kross records. The pitched melody is fresh and comes at the perfect time, leaving listeners longing for sunshine and far-away beaches. The drums and harmonies combine to give ‘Untouchable’ a tropical flavour that is sure to appeal both in festival fields and across radio airwaves this Summer.
Taao Kross has made a name for himself over the years with his expert skills behind the decks, with his residency at Pacha and numerous gigs covering the planet alongside names such as David Guetta and Steve Aoki playing testament to the Spanish export’s undeniable DJ talent. With ‘Untouchable’, Taao proves that his productions deserve to be held in the same high regard, and give the multi-faceted DJ/Producer the potential to take his sound from the dancefloor into the mainstream.
