Out now on Dim Mak Records, childhood best friends NIIKO X SWAE channel their 90s roots with this funky, bass-infused house banger. Embodying the spirit of every 90’s kid, their past childhood experiences shine through in their latest track, “Drop It Low.” This nostalgic theme will continue in their upcoming singles for Dim Mak. The visuals exude a vintage 8mm vibe and enhance the track’s artwork with an authentic NXS-branded yo-yo, a quintessential toy from the Y2K era.
Their recent collaboration with Tiësto and Tears For Fears on ‘Rule The World (Everybody)‘ has gone viral, amassing over 150 million views on Instagram. The trending sound was officially released in October and has since surpassed 40 million streams, catapulting them into mainstream success. Following this, NXS released ‘Serious’ with the multi-Grammy Award-winning band Train.’ Serious’ continues to dominate DSPs, receiving major editorial placements from Amazon Music and Spotify. Most recently, NXS launched their collaboration with Daniel Allan, ‘Waiting For You,’ which has garnered significant DSP support, including New Music Friday US and Dance Rising.
Smooth Criminal
“Drop It Low” surely evokes the vibrant dance music vibe of the 1990s club scene. The immense waves of euphoria create a sense that it’s existed for decades. I even found myself verifying if this wasn’t a long-lost 90’s classic that had been remixed. The deep, billowing vocals and care free lyrics grove this smooth classic along perfectly. With techy builds and acid-infused bass lines Drop It Low is surely set every single lady ablaze on the dance floor.
Hitting the ground running in 2025, NIIKO X SWAE have been touring relentlessly since the start of the year. Kicking off their Rule The World Tour in less than a week on March 8th, they have numerous major stops along the way. They will perform at the Breakaway Festival in Dallas and recently played their first-ever European show in Barcelona this past February. 2025 looks extremely promising for these two childhood best friends.
