Krewella and Yellow Claw have come together for “Rewind,” the follow-up to their inaugural collaboration, “New World,” released in 2017. The track’s title is reminiscent of the lyrics, and the nostalgic piece excels at transporting listeners to the depths of their own memories.
“Rewind” tackles the notion of how memories that can feel so distant can still shape the person that one becomes, even years later. This lyrical focus is led by Krewella’s signature vocals, which carry a punching energy that cuts the track its catchy edge. The break is where Yellow Claw’s influence becomes apparent; cutting notes intertwine with a trap drop, giving the work a surprising twist.
