It's been a whirlwind twelve months for sister duo KINDER. They've taken their infectious DJ sets all around the country, delivering set after set to massive crowds all over. 2018 saw them expand their repertoire, going from bonafide party DJs to songwriters, producers and live performers all in the same year.

They're back with their first single of 2019 in a tribute to Sydney's once thriving nightlife, titled 'No Sleep' which we're stoked to be premiering today! The single is also the girls' first label release, seeing them deliver this in partnership with seminal French label Kitsuné.

Savannah's vocal kicks off the story, telling us of a city that was once thriving, but now due to various political and social influences, has been forced into downturn. The track however, details the magic of the feeling you get walking into a club that's doing its best to still thrive despite the constant obstacles thrown at it.

Of the nature of the track, Briony said "Now more than ever, the clubs of Sydney have become more of a church of dance music and this is our little tribute to the music scene that we grew up in". 

And in true Kinder style, they've delivered something that's infectiously danceable. This deep house banger is driven by a pulsing bassline and dancehall inspired percussive, the narrative pushed to the front of the track through the girls' complimentary vocals.

Kinder's third single shows the girls' steady progression & dedication to delivering bangers that they can not only play in their DJ sets, but that will remain lasting and exciting.
