On the heels of his participation in the fourth installment of Circus Recordings’ annual compilation LP, Movements, rising Brooklyn-based DJ, producer, and Andhera Records label-head Ky William unveils his first official single of the year, “‘Touche.” In addition to crafting his latest sonic treat, the house music maestro has partnered with NYC arts collective OBSERVED to organize the launch of his Andhera Records Workshop. On April 15, 2023, Ky and the Andhera team will offer an in-person production masterclass at the .004 Gallery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, which will feature exclusive information panels with guest speakers and offer aspiring producers the opportunity to watch, learn and expand on their technical knowledge, giving them all the tools needed to excel and expand their musical careers. Rightly finding a home on Andhera Records, “Touche” out now and available to stream across all platforms.
Equally at home in an underground warehouse as he is on the mainstage, Ky William sound draws influence from deep groves and elements of hip-hop. Featuring a deep, funk bassline, delicate, textured string riffs and detailed percussive elements, perfectly paired alongside an alluring vocal cut, ‘Touche’ embodies a dark, stimulating ambiance evocative of an after-hours party. In a masterfully arranged format, ‘Touche’ demonstrates Ky William’s inimitable sound design and musical prowess. Providing an unparalleled and catchy listening experience, ‘Touche’ is sure to be a crowd favorite and serves as a stellar addition to Andhera Records.
“Creating Andera Records has been the best thing that has happened to me in my career. In the past three years, working on the label side of things has given me the opportunity to work with incredible talent which has pushed me to raise my production ability a ton. It also has allowed me to help up and coming artists find success which is something I thoroughly enjoy doing in this space. It’s all about building connections and a family and that is what Andhera Records has done for me. This week I am thrilled to be releasing my newest record ‘Touche’ on Andhera. Touche is a blend of all various dance music styles, resulting in a unique and darkly beautiful sound. Most importantly, I am proud to announce my first person production workshop at the Observed gallery in Brooklyn on April 15th. It’s something we’ve been working on for a long time and I’m so excited to see this one-of-a-kind experience come to life.” – Ky William
