  • Undertone releases new single “Feel Good”

    Undertone releases new single “Feel Good”

    South African EDM producer Undertone has released a new single, “Feel Good.”

    Released on August 28, the track runs at 125 BPM and is built around a short vocal sample, upbeat electronic production and prominent synth stabs. Undertone also increased the snare volume to give the drums more impact and reinforce the track’s dancefloor-oriented sound.

    The producer says the track developed after finding a short sample with simple lyrics, which he used as the basis for a new production. He had also been working on an aggressive synth-stab idea and decided to incorporate it into the track.

    “Feel Good” reflects Undertone’s approach to electronic music, combining contemporary EDM production with elements drawn from retro sounds.

    The song is available on streaming platforms.
