Yotto's Birthday Beats

Finnish producer, label head and force to be reckoned with, Yotto is celebrating his birthday today and instead of us getting him presents, he's gifted us with two new productions. The first, and seemingly only official release, comes from his label Odd One Out as he remixes Toronto's AVIRA. While the original "Love Me" blazes a trail of destruction through its dark drops and taught, tension-driven torturous builds, Yotto chooses the side of light. Immediately uplifting and utopian in its arc, the Yotto remix is utterly resplendent delivering divine synth builds and buoyant rave-worthy drops.On the other side of things, Yotto posted a track entitled "Wannabe Radio Edit" to his Soundcloud page in the early morning hours. With no description, nor any promotion on his socials, it's unclear whether this was actually meant to be shared or made public. That said I'm in love with it and the newfound disco/synthpop direction. Like his "Love Me" remix above, Yotto sparkles sublime here in the warmth of "Wannabe." The mixture of the tickling topline, the blissful bouncy bass and slew of subtle effects is pure musical magic. It is where I "Wannabe." Here's to hoping this sees an official release soon, but either way, it's a hell of a treat! Enjoy these birthday beats and be sure to follow Yotto below.

UPDATE: "Wannabe" has since been removed from Soundcloud. Likely wasn't supposed to be public.FOLLOW YOTTO: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER
