Cyclist — Heartbeat Speed (Feat. Jocelyn Alice)

Cyclist Toronto's Cyclist has long been one of our favorite producers of all things disco, funk and straight up feel-good. And this week he shows us his deeper, laid back side on a new original entitled Heartbeat Speed, featuring wonderfully soulful vocals courtesy of Jocelyn Alice. The two met through an ad Cyclist posted for a new roommate, only then to discover what an amazing voice she had, and we're beyond glad that chance meeting occurred considering what it's produced. Toss your shades on, turn your face to the sun, and let this one carry you away with it's warm melodies.

The track is out now as an exclusive on the new Toolroom Records Poolside Miami compilation, mixed by Cyclist himself alongside Framewerk. Have a listen below, and jam to the whole set here.

And while you're here, we'd suggest catching Cyclist's excellent take on Pat Lok's All In My Head, another exclusive from the Poolside Miami compilation. Two of our buds together on one tune is always a win for us.
