Just last month, Australian producer Arky Waters made a triumphant return with his new single “Holdin’ On”, alongside the announcement of his upcoming debut album which is set for release in early 2026.
He’s coming back to us this week with his latest offering, “Ay Papi”, delivering an energetic, uplifting sound that merges classic synth textures with modern production, as Arky explores the roots of some of his favourite electronic tracks, bringing warmth, character, and a timeless vibe to a contemporary setting.
“I started to visit a lot of analog modelling synths to see where a lot of my favourite older electronic tracks came from. It’s cool seeing how pieces of gear can become so pivotal in so many genre-defining tracks. A lot of the sounds you hear on this track are from moog emulations and the classic korg m1. It’s been really fun merging those classic sounds with modern production techniques. The textures, warmth and character you can get is just undeniable.” ~ Arky Waters
