Is Seven A Gang – “DREAMFLARE”

Is Seven A Gang is a remote music project made up of UK-based producers and their new single  “DREAMFLARE” caught our ears. The guitar-driven piece is ripe with pulsating synths and thick basslines peppered by punchy drum grooves to match the energy.

The group was birthed during the COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in social distancing measures in the UK. The producers were virtually introduced to each other by friends and colleagues, met a few more times online, then got to work. By sharing musical ideas over the internet back and forth over a number of months, the project ‘Gang day’ was created and was released on the day that lockdown measures in the UK were due to be lifted.
