Acclaimed producer/DJ duo, Two Friends have their collaborative single, “The Way It Is” with dance trio and DJ group Cheat Codes. The partnership results in a true dance-pop fusion, combining masterful electronic production with a catchy vocal hook. As the song progresses, layered beats and atmospheric synths increase in intensity, resulting in a euphoric, driving peak. Listen to the song now below.
“We’re super stoked ‘The Way It Is’ is finally out! We have always loved the Cheat Codes dudes and have wanted to do something together so we were all pumped when this collab came together,” explains Two Friends. “It was really cool working with an iconic interpolation and re-imagining it for 2024. No doubt this will be a highlight of all our upcoming sets!”
Two Friends kicked off what is set to be a monumental 2024 with Big Bootie Land – Los Angeles, premiering their Big Bootie Mix, Vol. 24, now available on all streaming platforms – listen HERE. A drumline with sticks of fire and an epic smoking spaceship stage were just a few of the elements Two Friends brought to their biggest hometown headline show to date that had fans on their feet for the entire show. With additional guest appearances from Arizona Zervas and Yung Gravy, EDM.com shared, “The infectious energy they exuded onstage was palpable, spreading like wildfire through the crowd and leaving an indelible mark on all who were fortunate enough to be part of the experience.
“The Way It Is” follows Two Friends’ June collaboration with diamond and multi-platinum selling dance music duo Loud Luxuryand award-winning pop singer Bebe Rexha, “If Only I,” which topped charts and was performed at Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve in December. The song is also nominated in four categories at the 2024 Electronic Dance Music Awards including ‘Dance/Electro Pop Song of the Year.’ In addition to multiple festival performances including Bonnaroo, Project Glow, and North Coast Festival, as well as headlining sets across the country this year, they will also be bringing The Great Escape to MGM Music Hall in Boston and the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado this spring.
