New: De̊ǰa - Try Again (De̊ǰa x Aaliyah)

If you're gonna update an R&B classic, this is how you do it.

Melbourne experimental electro-pop twosome De̊ǰa have had a pretty great 2014 that most recently saw them tour their latest EP Infinite Ecstatic around Australia, and just a couple of weeks ago we were pretty chuffed to premiere their chiller remix of Allday's Always Know The DJ. Now they've followed it up a with remix/re-do/cover of Aaliyah's timeless tune Try Again, and the results are a sonic pleasure worthy of your headphones or the dancefloor. It adds a bit of that darker/mysterious De̊ǰa vibe, but also gives it plenty of bump'n'grind that elevates it to something else entirely. The guy I sit next to in my office (hi Pierce) considers himself a bit of a king when it comes to the DJ world, and he was massively vibing this as soon as it started - which is a pretty strong rating on the barometer of the vibes you're about to get:
