Teaming up with production wunderkind Hasta, Norway’s Highasakite reveal a stunning rework of new single  ‘Someone Who’ll Get It’ . It’s a brooding twist on the slow jam; a soft and bridled build replacing the track’s signature gunfire with hushed keys, fingerclicks and billowing bass. Stream/embed ‘Someone Who’ll Get It (Hasta Remix)’ HERE.

Hasta is the production alias of 18-year-old Norwegian producer Thomas Wesenlund Wahl – a name synonymous with dark, bass-heavy soundscapes and high-speed production. Having remixed the likes of Mura Masa and Preston Harris, Hasta went on to release blog-buzzing original  ‘Tropical Nintendo’  in 2015, earning the collective praise of FACT and THUMP. The  ‘Botanique EP’  of late last year is hailed an exciting new chapter for the young producer, combining elements of jazz, R&B and atmospheric 808.

Since surfacing on The FADER / BBC Radio 1 (Huw Stephens)‘Someone Who’ll Get It’ has clocked in excess of 2.5 million streams, with the partnering video also afforded a high-profile premiere on Vogue. Watch it HERE.

It serves the first taste of Highasakite’s sophomore LP  ‘Camp Echo’  – a namesake taken from one of seven detention camps within Guantanamo Bay – and lands ahead of a hefty summer tour schedule, including festival billings at The Great EscapeLatitude Festival and Øyafestivalen, alongside a UK/EU Headline Tour in May. Full dates below…

Championed by the likes of PitchforkNME and The Guardian, Highasakite’s debut album of 2014 ‘Silent Treatment’  now claims the record for longest consecutive run in Norwegian chart history, having spent 105 weeks in the Top 40.

‘Someone Who’ll Get It’
 is taken from Highasakite’s forthcoming sophomore LP ‘Camp Echo’ – released Friday, May 20 via Propeller Recordings; available to pre-order HERE.
