We’re back in our rave era and have rising electronic duo DAGR to thank for it.

Enlisting the help of LVL1 and Rebecca Black, “Cafe Racer” is sex embodied. Taken from DAGR's forthcoming debut album, Fade on Back, set to release July 29, and peppered with notes of Azealia Banks and dark tech-house, this sonic explosion is an invitation to explore the edges of your liberation and see if you can push just a bit further. 

Bred from Texas and based in LA, DAGR is becoming a force to be reckoned with. They’ve already quietly curated some of the hottest tracks for artists like King Princess and REI AMI, though it’s clearly time for us to know their names, too.

“Cafe Racer” is likely the single that will leave a lingering aftertaste, and they couldn’t have picked better company. Rebecca Black has been blazing a fiery trail across the internet, while LVL1 reigns supreme in Spain’s pop scene. The combined forces of this track are ones you’d never quite expect in the same stew, yet that’s what makes what they deliver so potent. It’s pop, Latin, and electronic, all neatly wrapped in a queer bow.

In the context of what could have been overwhelming, “Cafe Racer” somehow leaves you craving more. This song is a devotion to body, self-empowerment, queer excellence, and absolute debauchery.
