COME THRU VOCALS — Daily Vocal Discoveries from INYIM Media
Come Thru Vocals is a long-running It’s Not You It’s Me Media series spotlighting standout vocal performances, emerging artists and new songs worth adding to your rotation. Curated by the INYIM music desk, many selections later appear in the Musique Dig’s Weekly Playlist and enter rotation on INYIM Radio.
Today’s Come Thru Vocals breaks the mold with Marie Davidson’s “Work It (Soulwax Remix)” and Maya Jane Coles featuring Rye Rye on “Rise Up.” One reaches back to a 2019 remix that still knows exactly how to work a room; the other pulls us straight into 2026 with house, hip-hop and after-dark pressure. Different eras, same assignment: move.
Marie Davidson & Soulwax
Tune: Work It (Soulwax Remix)
Marie Davidson already gave “Work It” its commanding spoken-word strut; Soulwax turned that attitude into an even bigger piece of club machinery. The 2019 remix sharpens the track’s pulse without sanding down Davidson’s bite — a reminder that some dance-floor orders simply do not expire.
Maya Jane Coles ft. Rye Rye
Tune: Rise Up
Maya Jane Coles links with Baltimore’s Rye Rye for “Rise Up,” a lean collision of house and hip-hop released through Coles’ Night Creatures imprint. Low-end pressure and hypnotic percussion leave plenty of room for Rye Rye’s commanding delivery to take charge. No easing into this one — it arrives already knowing where the dance floor is.
