There is a sweaty, neon-lit pulse running through In The Music, and Leopold Nunan makes sure you feel every second of it. Teaming up with underground dance forces Priscilla Loya and Juwan Rates, the Los Angeles-based artist delivers a riveting house project. These tracks breathe with sweat, movement, and human instinct.
The opening “In The Music – PRIIS Remix” wastes no time kicking the door down. Hard-hitting beats slam into glitchy, glittering percussion while the production bounces with a restless club energy that practically demands strobe lights and packed floors. Leopold Nunan’s thick, sonorous voice barrels through the track with raw passion, belting lines with the theatrical vitality that turns a dance song into an experience. There is something hypnotic about the contrast between the polished electronic textures and the emotional grit in his vocals. Meanwhile, Priscilla Loya’s touch on the remix keeps the song kinetic and fluid, almost like bodies colliding under flashing warehouse lights at 2 a.m.
Then comes “In The Music – Juwan Rates Remix,” which swaps some of that frantic energy for a steadier, more commanding groove. The beat marches forward with confidence, rigid and solid, while warm horns slide into the mix and add a lush, almost celebratory feeling. A powerful refrain, “Feel the beat… heads up high, move as one,” echoes throughout the track, giving it the spirit of a communal anthem rather than just another club banger. Juwan Rates injects elements of deep house and garage into the arrangement, making it smoother but no less magnetic.
What makes In The Music click is its refusal to sit still. It pulls from house, underground club culture, performance art, and fashion-forward aesthetics. Leopold Nunan is building a mood, a scene, and frankly, a bit of a rebellion against soulless dance music.
