Rising DJ\/producer James Hype<\/a> has teamed up with in-demand singer Kelli-Leigh<\/a> for a summer house anthem, “More Than Friends.” The track combines bass-heavy UK production with the lyrics from En Vogue’s 1996 R&B classic, “Don’t Let Go (Love)<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

A staple in UK house music, Leigh is best known for singing on hits like Duke Dumont<\/a>‘s “I Got U” and Secondcity’s “I Wanna Feel.” In 2011, she collaborated with the Bingo Players<\/a> on the anthem “Cry (Just a Little).”<\/p>\n

James tells us:<\/p>\n

\n“I started to make ‘More Than Friends’ over a year ago and just couldn’t quite get it where I wanted it. Then by chance, I hooked up with Kelli-Leigh on Twitter, and everything quickly fell into place. Being the first vocal I ever recorded, it opened my eyes to a whole new level of songwriting past just making beats. So after a year of re-recording and road testing the track, it’s finally ready to light up every club’s dance floor.”\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
