Two UK house stalwarts by the name of Chris have merged into what one might call a “supergroup” in the house arena. Anti Up’s members are largely celebrated figures in their own right; Chris Lake has forged some of the most infectious hits in his years on the circuit, from his 2011 electro hit “Sundown” to this year’s tech-based cut “Loose My Mind,” while Bristol’s Chris Lorenzo has carved his own niche in what some have labeled “bassline house.”
Together, they’ve upped the “Anti” in their raucous debut under their new project, “Pizza.” Both of their influences can be heard in the production, whose heavy basslines and chunky, low-frequency synth womps are ripped into by electro elements to command a wild reaction from those it touches. Vocal samples speaking of strong, alcohol-fueled pizza cravings make the piece even more appropriate for a party setting, or a keen trip down a hazy memory lane of one’s own similar nights.
It was only a matter of time before Lake and Lorenzo cemented their chemistry with a studio partnership. Their previous collaboration, “Nothing Better,” was an instant crowd pleaser that has amassed well over five million Spotify streams alone.
