Boundary-breaking DJ and producer Young Franco unleashes new music with British electronic music producer and DJ p-rallel, featuring American singer-songwriter Dana Williams, "Sing It Back", a rework of one of the most finely infectious and influential dance club hit songs of its time by English-Irish electronic music duo Moloko.
'Sing It Back" is laced with those familiar classic hit infectious and ethereal soulful vocals, wrapped around the surging euphoria-inducing and hypnotic chorus that we love so much from this dance floor hit.
The collaboration with Young Franco, p-rallel and Dane Williams came about fortuitously over the summer break. "p-rallel was in Sydney for like 48 hours back in December. I'm a huge fan of his Forward EP, especially the track with Jords. I hit him up and we worked from my place for a couple of hours and came up with this record. Summer in Australia is a bit of a special place to be... Sing it Back is a classic tune and just feels like Aus summer, so it came together really nicely. When I flew over to LA in March, Dana and I had a session to do the vocals and banged it out in 30 mins. The rest is history!," shares Young Franco.
Young Franco is globally acclaimed for his diverse style that blends electronic, disco, indie, and hip-hop, and has taken his high-energy shows worldwide, building a loyal fanbase across the UK, Europe, America, Asia, New Zealand and Australia.

In 2021, the A-League, aka the Australian and New Zealand professional soccer league, used Young Franco and Tkay Maidza's track "Real Nice (H.C.T.F.)" ft. Nerve as its official anthem.
