NIIKO X SWAE Continue To Embrace Nostalgia With “Drop It Low”
NIIKO X SWAE unleashes “Drop It Low,” a funked-out House banger packed with an acid-inspired bassline, a resonating lead pluck, and a party-starting pitched vocal. The song’s playful lyrics and funky drop display the duo’s spirited and nostalgic approach to their music.
Returning to their roots, 90’s kids NIIKO X SWAE draw from their childhood on “Drop It Low,” a theme that will continue through their next Dim Mak singles as well. The accompanying visuals give off a retro 8mm look and bring the track’s artwork to life with a real NXS-branded yoyo – a classic toy from the Y2K era.
The duo adds, “Drop It Low” captures the high-energy vibe we bring to our live sets and has become a staple in our shows. Designed as a versatile DJ tool, it blends seamlessly across multiple genres. It’s the kind of track you’d hear in a sweaty basement. It features a classic vocal that feels instantly familiar to any raver or clubgoer while pushing sound design to new levels—flipping familiar sounds into something fresh and unrecognizable.”
Childhood friends and LA-based duo NIIKO XSWAE are living reminders of what friendship and cherishing those coming-of-age moments are all about. Today, NIIKOX SWAE are familiar faces in dance music. Their recent collaboration with Tiesto and Tears For Fears on ‘Rule The World (Everybody)’ has gone viral with over 150 million views on Instagram. The trending sound was officially released in October and has since eclipsed 40 million streams with support from Spotify’s Dance Rising and Just Hits, Apple Music’s DanceXL and New Music Daily, the cover of Amazon’s Pop Remixes, and much more. Following this, NXS released ‘Serious’ with the multi-grammy award-winning band Train.’ Serious’ continues to dominate DSPs, with major editorial looks from Amazon Music and Spotify. Most recently, NXS released their collab with Daniel Allan, ‘Waiting For You,’ which has received a flurry of DSP support like New Music Friday US, Dance Rising, and more.
The Tao Group Hospitality Las Vegas residents have also become a household name in the remix lane, releasing remixes for Bebe Rexha, Armin van Buuren, John Legend, and more. NIIKO X SWAE’s Sacrifice remix for Bebe Rexha has topped 7 million streams and earned a top spot on KIIS FM’s “Top 20 Beats of the Week”, helping lead Sacrifice to #1 on Dance Radio. NXS is excited to continue veraciously touring, recently their debut headline, ‘Rule The World Tour,’ and their first-ever festival plays at Escapade and Lost In Dreams.
