Auckland-based producer Montell2099 has a unique sound that spans genres like trap, wave, drum & bass, and hip-hop. His latest release, “GO!,” marks his debut on NGHTMRE and SLANDER's Gud Vibrations label and features the talents of singer/songwriter Sam Bruno.
“GO!” is a powerful trap track that's both emotive and energetic. Built around Sam Bruno‘s captivating vocals, the song serves as a love-fueled anthem. The melodic riffs and rich textures provide a perfect backdrop for the emotional lyrics. As Bruno's vocals evolve, the beat intensifies, leading to festival-ready drops with dynamic vocal processing, strong synths, and a solid low end. The track's addictive nature is enhanced by punchy drums and gritty vocal chants, which add a raw edge to its melodic foundation.
Explaining the collaboration, Montell2099 says: “‘GO!' started when I was inspired by wave music, which features melancholic melodies and saw synths. I created the main lead line with these themes in mind, then built the track around it. Sam Bruno's vocals brought new life to the song—turning it from something meant for live sets into one of my favorite vocal releases.”
From New Zealand, Montell2099 has made waves in various genres and collaborated with artists like 21 Savage, RL Grime, and Netsky. His track “Broken” with Netsky has over 8.1 million streams. Recently, he's performed at events like Homegrown, Summer Classic, and Northern Bass, with support from artists like Mura Masa, What So Not, Alison Wonderland, Wilkinson, and Charli XCX.
