Canadian, London-based rapper Aligo and dreamy Danish singer Marie Dahlstrom balance each other so well with their opposing vocals. The two have developed their musical relationship with multiple singles, including “Summer Evenings” and a four-track EP together. Rhythmic, groovy, yet jazzy, their work is a fluid, genre-bending sound.
The combination of Aligo’s deep and warm voice on his verses leads their newest track “Elevate.” His rhyming on rhythm is like a soft-spoken story - interesting and melodic. Combined that with the extensive and silky tоne of Dahlstrom over the hook and a simple, slow beat and you have yourself the comforting and optimistic track “Elevate.”
