Bright Light Bright Light teams up with GRAMMY-nominated sensation Mykal Kilgore on "Heartslap"
Tuesday 7th May 2024
Release date: Out now Label: Absolute
Bright Light Bright Light unleashes his electrifying new single, a collaboration with GRAMMY-nominated sensation Mykal Kilgore. 'Heartslap,' is a pulsating anthem, serving a euphoric blend of high-energy beats, hands-aloft melodies, and nostalgic nods to the infectious rhythms of 90s house music. Adding an extra layer of club-ready magic, the song arrives with a huge Dave Audé remix. The single drops ahead of the forthcoming album 'Enjoy Youth', due for release on May 17.
‘Heartslap’ is one of several tracks to come from the new album featuring collaborations with other artists, and Mykal Kilgore was one of Bright Light Bright Light’s dream partnerships. Fellow NYC based Mykal made history at the 63rd annual GRAMMY awards as the first openly gay artist to receive a nomination in the ‘Best Traditional R&B Performance’ category for his single ‘Let Me Go’. That song was also recently covered by actress and singer Cynthia Erivo, who performed it live on national TV in the US to critical acclaim.
‘Heartslap’ was co-written and produced by Jon Shave (Charli XCX, Miley Cyrus, Girls Aloud, Zayn). Speaking about the song, Bright Light Bright Light said: “Mykal is one of the best vocalists I've ever heard, and Jon is one of the best pop writers with an encyclopedic knowledge of the exact type of music I love, so for me this is an absolute dream collaboration. It was the only in-person co-writing session of the album too, getting Mykal in to add some parts while we did his vocal, and the rap part was his idea, which is such a ridiculous, joyful moment on the track. It's the last song I had finished for 'Enjoy Youth' and I think it was peak energy, peak joy, and peak satisfaction for me, so I really hope people love hearing it as much as I loved making it.
