“We made this joint on the same day we made Galaxy – I think you can hear the similarities between the 2 in how we’re making use of spacey synths and effects. Once again, this is a smooth head bopper, nothing crazy but definitely a vibe. Our favorite part is the bridge, which to us feels very nostalgic and emotive. ”

THE RELEASE
Chillhop maestro delaney. paves the way for a pleasantly dreamy trip on his upcoming single with lightheart “Honey”.
For years the name delaney. has echoed far and wide within the chillhop and lofi hip hop scene. He’s not only a talented multi-instrumentalist and arranger, but he has also brought life to the works of jazzhop heavyweights such as Glimlip, DESH, and Louk. People usually describe his style as a tasteful mixture of Robert Glasper and Cory Henry. These comparisons are no surprise, especially since delaney. has been praised by Spotify through editorial features like Lounge Jazz, Chillout Jazz, and even lofi beats.
On “Honey” however, we’re introduced to a side of delaney. we don’t hear often. Here he is joined by his copilot DESH (who appears as lightheart) to guide listeners into a groovy, spacey-like odyssey. The atmospheric pads coupled with keys create a mood that’s perfect for stargazing and creating a vibe for a social setting.
The single “Galaxy” with Stereofox was the first time the two producers ventured into this territory. “Honey” continues down this path as they reach for a sound that’s like no other in the jazzhop realm.
