With “For Us”, Inertia throws open the doors to a fresh, euphoric wave of Afrohouse-meets-global-electronica. Lifted from his upcoming debut Afrohouse/House EP, this track becomes the beat. The 20-year-old UK/Punjabi artist, producer, and pianist is already making waves far beyond his years, and here he proves he’s only getting started.
Right out of the gate, “For Us” opens with a steady, rising rhythm that coils and tightens like a spring ready to launch. Shimmering synths tangle with a hazy cloud of warped vocals, layered, processed, almost ghostlike, oddly grounding. It feels like a conversation happening in another room, half-heard but fully felt. Then boom—when the beat kicks in, it’s all systems go. You’re pulled into a pulse that jitters, jangles, and drives forward with unstoppable momentum. The fuzzy textures blend with crisp, high-pitched synth flickers that tickle the ear like static electricity. It’s hypnotic, emotionally charged, club-ready, sure, but not mindless.
What really seals the deal is how intentional it all feels. This isn’t just a vibey jam to zone out to—there’s meaning in the layers. It’s got that deep-house shimmer and Afrohouse soul, but it’s fused with cultural texture, heart, and a desire to connect. The title “For Us” says it all. It’s pointing to that love the artist has for the community, self-expression, and for those who’ve never quite seen themselves in the spotlight of electronic music.
Inertia’s talent lies in building something that nods to his roots while reaching sky-high. He shows that he’s aiming to break into the mainstream. Keep an eye on this one.
