Tracks of the Weekend #29: Yuksek x 2

image

In the long tradition of the Track of the Weekend, we painstakingly select only one great track to feature from the bushels of delicious cuts that get brought to market every week on Whyd. While it crimps the edges of our souls to not mention some of the other deserving music, we have stayed true to the singular title Track of the Weekend.

Well, fuck that. This week on Whyd saw the uncorking of Yuksek, a French electro producer from Loick’s home town of Reims. There must be something in the champagne out there that generates a bubbling beat in its inhabitants that begs to be mixed into dirty electro and blasted from your speakers. Yuksek’s cut of “Greifjoy - Touch ground” stayed atop the Hot Tracks the longest but his remix of C2C’s “Genius” just peaked at #1 and is in every way deserving of the title of Track of the Weekend. Both of these tracks were shared by our darling blonde music ninja Laurène, who has essentially taken up permanent residence atop the trending tracks on Whyd.

So we will let you select which one you like better, but one thing is for sure: Yuksek is the Artist of the Weekend!
