Black V Neck & SHADED Team Up For 4th Flight Week Single ‘Salmon’ via Dirtybird
Miami-based duo Black V Neck and live techno-house act SHADED have teamed up for a brand new single ‘Salmon’ out now as part of Dirtybird’s Flight Week series.
Rippling with wavy synthwork and rhythmic undercurrents, ‘Salmon’ flows with buoyant energy and precise, rolling percussion that keeps the dance floor hooked. The fourth Flight Week release is tenacious yet methodical, showcasing the depth of creative drive that bubbled from the writing camp. An instant head-turner, ‘Salmon’ carries the timbre and spirit of a Dirtybird hit – kinetic, off-kilter and finessed for the dancefloor – while cementing Black V Neck and SHADED in the next generation of label players.
Miami natives Black V Neck (Ian & Julian) are a prime example of a Dirtybird’s dedication to growing its flock. The duo first appeared on Birdfeed in 2018 with ‘Stop ‘N Go’, being promoted to the main label in 2019 with their Mouth Music EP. Black V Neck have remained consistent faces with their 2020 follow up Bounce EP and an appearance on the 2021 Campout Compilation. This year, the duo helped launch the label’s anniversary celebrations with ‘Check My Brain’ and joined the label at Dirtybird Campout x Northern Nights and CampINN. ‘Salmon’ serves as Black V Neck’s second Flight Week release, following ‘Drip Drop (Handle That)’ with Life On Planets.
LA-based producer SHADED has a club-centric sound that reverberates throughout underground dance floors around the globe. His party-starting originals and remixes have attracted the attention of Patrick Topping, Tiga, Loco Dice, and The Martinez Brothers, and landed him on labels like John Summit’s Experts Only, Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations, and Desert Hearts. SHADED debuted on Dirtybird in 2020 with his Holla Atcha Boy EP, of which the title track was later highlighted on Dirtybird’s Heavy Heaters compilation in 2022. SHADED returned to the label earlier this year with ‘Bad Boy’ ahead of his performances at Dirtybird Campout x Northern Nights and CampINN.
