Initial Talk and Roxi Drive 'Dream Lover'

Luca Discs has just released the new single ‘Dream Lover’ from Initial Talk with Roxi Drive on vocals!

Initial Talk has made massive retro waves with their officially commissioned 1980s-kissed remixes for Kylie Minogue, Dua Lipa, Sia, STEPS, Erasure, The Vivienne, Sam Sparro, KA’BEL and their own original releases.

Initial Talk has collectively racked up 30 million plays on Spotify alone and their remixes recently appeared on physical deluxe editions of Kylie’s “Disco” and Erasure’s “The NEON” albums.

For their latest single ‘Dream Lover’, Initial Talk teams-up with London retro pop/synthwave artist Roxi Drive to deliver an upbeat, feel-good slice of ‘80s pop. Roxi Drive is one of synthwave’s most popular artists having released several albums, hit singles and collaborations delivering her fans a-plenty.

Roxi’s ‘80s chic and vocal chops perfectly combine with Initial Talk’s synthy sensibilities to create a catchy number for dream lovers everywhere. ‘Dream Lover’ comes as a maxi-single with additional mixes by Diamond Field and is the second Initial Talk single to be released by Luca Discs, following on from 2020’s ‘Skydiving’ featuring Sasha Brown.

The four track maxi-single features a remix by Diamond Field and an ‘80s-style 12’ extend version.

Initial Talk feat. Sasha Brown ‘Skydiving’

Luca Discs is proud to release the new single ‘Skydiving’ from Initial Talk featuring Sashsa Brown.

Initial Talk has been making waves with their 1980s-kissed remixes of songs by today's most popular artists. From Lady Gaga to Kylie Minogue to Dua Lipa, Initial Talk transports modern pop classics back to the MTV era.

The Initial Talk remixes of Dua Lipa’s ‘New Rules’ and ‘IDGAF’ have together clocked-in over 14 million streams on Spotify alone.

The last few weeks have seen Initial Talk remixes of Sam Sparro’s ‘Love Like That’ and Perfume Genius’ ‘On The Floor’. Paper Magazine says “Initial Talk has transformed ‘On The Floor’ into a euphoric bop straight out of the Reagan era.”

It’s no surprise Initial Talk’s original tracks follow the same feel-good ‘80s nostalgia of their remixes and ‘Skydiving’ is no exception. Teaming-up with extraordinary London-based vocalist Sasha Brown, ‘Skydiving’ tells the story of a wronged lover who takes the upper hand, all set to a ’80s RnB pop groove. Brown, a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and DJ has been on the rise with her singles ‘Parallel’ ‘Fix Of You’ and the just released ‘How Far Are You Willing To Go?’

The pairing of Initial Talk and and Sasha Brown on ‘Skydiving’ is a match made in pop heaven.
