When two talents collide, you can expect firework – and that’s precisely what happened when Sherm and Isaac Palmer teamed up for a tech house spin on Drake & Travis Scott’s hit, “Pussy & Millions”. Signed under the reputable Hood Politics imprint, the track unfurls with a deep, rumbling bass line and dynamic drum patterns. The seamless sampling of Drake & Scott’s vocals sets the tone, paving the way for a track bursting with raw energy and pulsating synths.
Sherm, whose roots in the windy city of Chicago have deeply influenced his approach to music, explains the underlying magic of their rendition: “This edit can swing the energy from light to dark, or the other way round, in an instant. Its blend of underground vibes with mainstream verses is its strength.” Palmer, on the other hand, delves into the origins, “We began with the Drake vocals. By the time we got to the Travis Scott verse, we knew we had a club gem.”
Sherm’s not just any DJ; his legacy in Chicago is palpable. From his well-acclaimed electronic music podcast, ‘Sherm In The Booth’, to his electrifying sets at ACRAZE’s official Lollapalooza after-party and the North Coast Music Festival, he’s a force to reckon with.
As for Palmer, at just 23, his credentials are envy-inducing. From performing at monumental festivals like Mysteryland and European tours spanning Greece to Belgium, to remixing for bigwigs like Ty Dolla $ign and The Chainsmokers, he’s on a meteoric rise.
With “Pussy & Millions”, these two have presented a masterclass in fusing mainstream appeal with underground grit, reaffirming their status as leading lights in the tech house scene.
