Prolific Canadian producer Kaytranada has teamed up with Nigerian-American R&B duo VanJess on a new song titled “DYSFUNCTIONAL.” The track features a bouncy funk bass line and smooth, soulful vocals from VanJess about a struggling relationship.
The track follows last year’s Kaytranada EP NOTHIN LIKE U / CHANCES, which featured appearances from Ty Dolla $ign and the producer’s frequent collaborator Shay Lia. Kaytranada’s debut full-length 99.9% arrived in 2016 and boasted guest spots from Anderson .Paak, Vic Mensa, Syd of The Internet, BADBADNOTGOOD, GoldLink and Little Dragon. VanJess’s debut album Silk Canvas came out last year to critical acclaim.
Kaytranada is spending the summer on the festival circuit, making appearances at high-profile festivals like Coachella, Pharrell’s Something in the Water Festival, Montreal’s Osheaga Festival, London’s Lovebox Festival and the Fuji Rock Festival in Japan’s Niigata Prefecture.
