Tchami describes the collaboration for the upcoming EP, "We each have our own specific sound. Malaa's music embraces the early street vibe of house music from its origin in the streets of Chicago and Detroit. My sound portrays another side of the genre: positive, spiritual. This project combines the two elements and messages to represent house music as a whole while creating something new. The best of both worlds." He goes on to elaborate on the "No Redemption" dates saying "This tour will give fans the opportunity to see the different worlds come together quite literally in the unique production that will depict two elements, both visually and musically, on stage."
About Tchami: This summer, Tchami released his most recent EP, Revelations, on his ownConfession label. The critically acclaimed EP continues to grow across platforms, garneringover 10 million streams since its release. Listen HERE via Spotify. Billboard says the EP "reveals sonic nooks of the Frenchman's repertoire that you wouldn't typically expect from him," while Dancing Astronaut raves that Tchami is "comparable to no other producer in the game right now, as every release echoes a foreign reality."
