by: Ariel King Jan 25, 2022

XAVAGE is gearing up to his release his next EP on Circus Records, and he’s giving Dancing Astronaut an exclusive first look at its debut single, “Hot.” Featuring vocals from Milwaukee rapper The Oshi, the track blends modern hip-hop influences with an old-school flow. Speaking on the track and the collaborative process, XAVAGE said,

“I am a huge fan of early 2000’s hip -op and when I first heard her music, it gave me major Missy Elliot vibes. While this track is our first one released together, fans should know there are many more to come.”

“Hot” manages to sound both fresh and groovy while paying homage to talents who came before him. The San Diego-based producer’s upcoming release is his answer to his debut EP, Stay XAVAGE on Circus. “My day one fans know that my music is always evolving to reach new levels of groove in the trap scene,” XAVAGE added. “This EP showcases that simplicity plus groove will keep you dancing all night. Remember, it doesn’t have to be a banger to be a banger.”
