DiRTY RADiO continues its run of infusing sex into some of the world's most eclectic beats on "Infinity," a new take of Esta's "Moet." The Canadian collective cuts right to the chase lyrically, demanding "Do me like you're using me," and "Fuck me like you're trying to be famous." While their past forays on beats by Kaytranada, Darius and Pomo have pushed the boundaries, this is the group's most forward and sexually-driven yet. It doesn't hurt that Farshad Edalat kills with falsetto vocals. Be on the look out for more vocal bootleg remixes of interesting beats from DiRTY RADiO this fall.
"Moet" deserves credit for bringing sexy to "Infinity" too. The song's synth and piano riffs, along with its playful beat and atmospherics, bring sexed-up R&B by TLC and Ashanti from the past to mind, while still remaining fresh. The song also clearly influenced Ariana Grande and Cashmere Cat, whose "Be My Baby" beat sounds strikingly similar to Esta's. The Californian producer has experimented with a wide range of sounds (see reggae remix of "Drunk In Love") and we hope he continues.
