AJ Tracey, Baauer And Jae Stephens Cruise The Late Night NY Streets In "3AM"


July 19, 2018

After linking up in L.A last year, AJ Tracey and LA-based singer Jae Stephens have jumped on a new funky house and bashment-influenced single from Baauer called  "3AM". The production packs a style we're not quite used to seeing from the West London native, but alongside Stephens he adds more than enough sauce to keep his summer buzz going strong. In the Peter Marsden-directed video, AJ and Stephens ride around the Big Apple in the classic yellow cab, with intimate camera angles fittingly depicting the late night/early morning vibes suggested in the title. 

Baauer said of the track: "AJ and I first got in the studio in New York in early 2017. We both work quickly so managed to sketch out five records — but all of them just one verse and chorus long. We've been meeting up to work on them from time to time whenever we're in each other's city. '3AM' was the song that felt most like the summer to us so this is coming out first. Summer records are always geared for the sunshine but this one's got a heavy atmosphere to it: it suits the night time. A vibe for driving around to."
