DMA'S & What So Not Team Up On New Track: 'We Knew We Were Onto Something Special'

Aussie music heavyweights DMA'S and What So Not (Chris Emerson) have joined forces for brand new track, The Change.

The song - What So Not's first after a year-long hiatus - will be followed up with a music video dropping tomorrow. Listen to The Change below.

“I met [DMA'S' Johnny Took] at their studio - a small room next to a noisy inner-city road, above a pub, with no sound insulation," Emerson said.

"We had (somehow) never met but clicked instantly, discussing life on the road, COVID & found commonality on our all-time favourite artists. The first thing we made is pretty much the track you hear.

"Johnny liked our little idea so much he decided to get the whole band involved a couple of days later we tracked [frontman Tommy O'Dell] and brought [guitarist Matt Mason] in for some extra pieces.

"I feel like this record is one the two of us have always wanted to make but never had the right pieces of the puzzle, until now.”

Took added, "Emoh and I had never met before the day of our first session but quickly bonded over synths, production gear, The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy and Underworld.

"Being from such different songwriting worlds really made this a great collaboration for me.

"Once we got Tommy and Mason on the track after that first day of writing we knew we were onto something special and new for both of us."
