Audio: Becoming Real feat. Lady Chann, “Work Me”

Words by Jesse Serwer, via the Fader

One net result of Major Lazer’s rise is that producers from other genres with little or no connection to dancehall seem to be a lot more comfortable experimenting with it. According to the Fader, the beatmaker known as Becoming Real normally makes “murky electronic music.” We’ll have to take their word for it, as we’d never even heard of Mr. Real before, but his “Work Me,” featuring London deejay Lady Chann, is summer-y and bashment-ready, at least if your idea of bashment is a genre-hopping London rave. In any case, we can imagine that there are some remixers ready to take it all the way to yard.
