Platinum-certified DJ and producer Martin Solveig and Drake-signed, OVO artist, Roy Woods have dropped massive new single “Juliet & Romeo”, out on December 6. Listen HERE.
Harnessing the kind of infectiously feelgood vibe that Martin Solveig has made his trademark, “Juliet & Romeo” is a piano-driven slice of feel good dance music that utilizes Roy Woods’ fresh vocals to masterful effect. The track is built around a piano sample from “Der Alte” by Kölsch, the seminal breakthrough track from his 2013 album 1977. The two producers have worked together before, with Kölsch providing a killer remix on Martin’s “My Love” single last year.
The captivating official video for “Juliet & Romeo,” (directed by NDA Paris and Nathanaël Day and produced by Soldats) sees Martin and Roy transported to a frosty fantasy world, with the pair acting as protagonists for an alternative take on the classic tale of Romeo & Juliet. Watch the video HERE.
