I Promised Mom & David LeSal - Phones Away

Paris-based artist I Promised Mom has made a name for himself in the indie dance and melodic scene with his distinctive blend of percussive grooves and dark disco, earning features on labels like Marginalia, Harabe, and Acrylic on Canvas. His track Phones Away features New York spoken word poet David LeSal, whose iconic monologue critiques modern dance culture. The tracks tense bass and grinding drums create a shadowy atmosphere. Remixers Accent and Alex Medina bring their unique interpretations: Accents version is stripped-back and gothic, while Medina adds hypnotic depth with lush synths and fluid beats. The release, from Marginalia, showcases I Promised Mom as a rising talent.
