Straight Fire: Keys N Krates – Save Me (feat. Katy B) (Audio)
Keys N Krates saved our day with this energetic release: Save Me feat. british singer/songwriter Katy B. Wanna get to know the trio from Toronto a bit better? Hit the jump!
Keys N Krates are made up of Adam Tune (drums), David Matisse (synth/keys) and DJ Jr. Flo. Their way of chopping up samples and reassembling them is unique. Their last EP dubbed Every Nite should serve as proof. It contains the critically acclaimed Are We Faded. Listen to the entire EP below and make sure to grab a copy here.
To really understand why there’s virtually no name in the business who hasn’t acknowledged Keys N Krates‘ greatness in one form or the other, you need to see them live. The way they flip their own and other people’s music upside down with nothing but drums, keys, turntables and live sampling is a singular experience.

The music video to Save Me is set to premiere at this weekend’s Bestival in the trio’s hometown of Toronto. According to Thump, it “will be the world’s first location-based mobile music video. Using geo-location technology and thousands of photos from artists, fans, and photographers, the video curates a completely unique and interactive experience every time you watch it”.
