Children Of Zeus – Slow Down / All Night

Low Key Source is very proud to present the triumphant return of the UK’s finest Hip Hop Soul duo, Children of Zeus, with a double-header of brand new material.

Since the release of ‘The Story So Far‘ EP in 2017, Konny Kon and Tyler Daley have proceeded to draw in the attention of tastemakers across the world, receiving big ups from Hip Hop, Soul and dance music royalty, such as US legends Jazzy Jeff & DJ Spinna, and UK heavyweights Stormzy & Rag’n’Bone Man.

In addition to relentlessly rocking stages and studios all over Europe, Children of Zeus have somehow found the time to write and produce their debut album proper. This is the first taste..

‘Slow Down‘ is a sure-shot Summer anthem, with a twist. A deceptively soulful slow jam that lulls you into a false sense of filtered smoothness, before a floor-shaking beat & trill hats drop in from above, as if thrown in via a thunderbolt from Zeus himself. On the flip, we have the uptempo boom-bap steppa, ‘All Night‘. Konny sets this one off on some straight b-boy isht, riding a rhythm that’s guaranteed to make grown Hip Hoppers reminisce, before Tyler’s sweet swing-tinged vocals glide into play to keep you firmly steppin’ – this one again illustrating the Mancunian duo’s craft of creating timeless Hip Hop Soul music.

Manchester has been riding a wave of immense creativity & musical prowess in recent years. Children of Zeus exemplify the heart and soul of Manny’s now-movement – but don’t get it twisted – the vibe is universal, and they definitely ain’t new to this. Two decades on from the inception of Broke’N’£nglish and Hoodman, Tyler and Konny have consistently persistently held their corner, stayed true to the music they love and nurtured their own unique sound. It’s almost time to drop that album… But for now, here’s more future classics.
