‘Lose It All’ by Otosan is an interesting meld of styles. The pensive, moody vocal tone is one of which would fit into a dark Indie/alternative track, yet instead it is paired with an lively dance beat. The wobbles of emotion spill over into an intense middle section. Keeping the light once it’s faded. The lyrics tell a sad story of a failing relationship. There’s nothing to hold to break the fall.

The track comes with a trio of remixes: The Wildfire edit steps up the beat with a focus on the dark tones, the Jordan Burns remix is an experiment with hard electronic grit, and the Dan Aux version increases the intensity and adds a flavourful beat.

Australia meets NZ duo OTOSAN have a knack for effortlessly crafting finely-tuned dance music with a timeless quality, and that’s exactly what they’ve done again on the new single ‘Lose It All’.

With an impeccable Indie vocal treatment that meshes seamlessly with on point electro meets future house production, the duo have once again struck dance floor and airplay gold.

Sitting alongside the original, the lads have enlisted an impressive collection of remix compadres including Jordan Burns who turns out one of the nastiest pieces of dark tech/electro you’ll hear this year, Wildfire who brings the main room tech vibes and NZ’s finest Dan Aux who delivers an epic progressive workout that’ll turn heads on both sides of the Tasman and beyond.
