Hey there, fellow groove hunters! If you've been scrolling through your feeds lately, you've probably felt that itch for something that hits different – a track that doesn't just play in the background but straight-up commandeers your body for an impromptu dance session. Enter "Find a Way," the latest tech house weapon from New York instigator Kozlow and Montreal's chaotic duo ForgiveMeTommy!. Dropped just last week on October 31 via Kozlow's own ANTHR FCKNG PARTY (AFP) label, this one's got that deep house soul with old-school house swagger, wrapped in a bassline so filthy it'll have you side-eyeing your speakers. In a year where underground electronic scenes are exploding – think the raw energy of NYC's no-phones raves clashing with global house revivals – this collab feels like the perfect soundtrack to that late-night escape. Trust me, one listen and you'll be plotting your next club crawl.
Let's dive into what makes "Find a Way" such a dancefloor destroyer. Picture this: a rolling bassline that starts low and sneaky, building like tension in a dimly lit warehouse, then BAM – percussive synths kick in like sparks on a fuse. Layer on those hypnotic vocals that loop just enough to get under your skin without overdoing it, and you've got a track that's equal parts drive and vibe. It's got that tech house punch for the heads-down moments, but the deep house undercurrents add this melodic warmth that lingers, perfect for those headphone commutes or living-room boogies when the world's too much. Kozlow calls it a "dirty, driving record with bite," born from a wild session up in Montreal with ForgiveMeTommy! – and you can hear the chaos in every drop. It's not just music; it's a mood shifter, blending underground groove with melodic tension in a way that's screaming 2025's house renaissance.
Now, a quick spotlight on the masterminds behind the madness. Kozlow isn't your average DJ – this guy's a classically trained violinist who's traded concert halls for sweaty club basements, promoting and producing with the ferocity of someone who's lived every beat. Based in NYC, he's shared stages with heavyweights like Carl Cox, Green Velvet, and Diplo, and his sets? They're a wild weave of live violin improvisations over left-field house picks. His residencies at spots like Outer Heaven and Gospel are legendary for that raw, community-fueled energy. And AFP? What began as a DIY party series – no lineup, no phones, just pure chaos – has ballooned into a label that's already pulling in over 10,000 ravers this year alone. Early nods from Mau P, Skream, Solomun, CamelPhat, Jamie Jones, and Marco Carola? Yeah, this is the underground sound that's bubbling up to takeover.
Then there's ForgiveMeTommy!, the Canadian duo of Thomas Hatzi and David Audet, whose friendship was basically forged in the fire of Montreal's legendary dancefloors. What started as solo hustles during the pandemic lockdown evolved into this shared obsession: eclectic textures meets hypnotic rhythms that tug at your emotions while making your feet betray you. Their releases on labels like Maccabi House, Blond:ish's Abracadabra, and Sofi Tukker's Animal Talk show they're no strangers to carving out space in the deep house and tech house worlds. "Find a Way" feels like their sweet spot – joyful yet introspective, chasing that elusive dancefloor epiphany where everything clicks. Together with Kozlow, they've cooked up something that bridges NYC's gritty edge with Montreal's melodic heart, proving collabs like this are the future of house music's global pulse.
Tying it all back, this drop lands right as the electronic scene's leaning hard into hybrid sounds – violin-infused house nodding to old-school roots while tech house keeps the innovation fresh. With Kozlow's calendar packed (he just torched White Lodge on Nov 1 and has Outer Heaven lined up for the 8th), expect "Find a Way" to be the secret weapon lighting up those nights. It's the kind of track that reminds us why we fell for house in the first place: that unfiltered connection, the sweat, the shared glances across a crowded room.
