Speed house prodigy, CHYL has teamed up with speed house founder Haus of Panda and multi-faceted artist MYLK for their collaborative new single, “Ignite” today via Monstercat. The new track is bound to captivate festivals and music venues all year long as it is charged by an irresistible upbeat tempo and catchy melodies sung and crafted by singer-songwriter-producer MYLK. The record promises an exhilarating dancefloor experience as it seamlessly fuses the accelerating speed house styles of CHYL and Haus of Panda. With its powerful drops and bouncy synths leading the intense atmosphere, there is no doubt that “Ignite” will unleash a plethora of energy among listeners.
CHYL says of the song, “‘Ignite’ is one of my favorite speed house collaborations and productions! Structurally it’s a bit similar to my last release with Monstercat, “Fool Me,” where the production features a melodic female vocal and very fast and pumping drops. “Ignite” is extra special to me because I worked with 2 of my close friends on this track. The first drop is a bit more Haus of Panda square-lead sound design style and the second drop is a bit more of my bounce speed house style, and I really think it’s a perfect combo of all of our vision. I hope the listeners will love this track as well!”
Haus of Panda adds, “Chyl had hit me up sometime last fall about doing something together and I agreed it was definitely time we made a speed house banger. The first idea she sent me I could already envision something for it so it was an easy process getting this together!”
MYLK comments, “It always feels good to come back to Monstercat! I’ve never sung on a speed house track before, so that’s a first for me. I was able to put some of my sassy side into “Ignite” as well as my melodic side, so I guess that’s something you don’t see often compared to the other tracks I have out on Monstercat.”
