Dreamy and deeply sensual, “Contact” offers a gentle invitation to experience some of the club’s most decadent pleasures. “‘Contact’ has a little bit of something for every part of the night,” Kelela writes in a press statement. “It’s a soundtrack for ‘pre-gaming’ (a song to play as you’re getting ready or on your way to the club). It’s also the interior club experience: the heat that envelops you when you walk into a packed rave. All this culminates in a very naughty, psychedelic moment in the back of the club with a lover.”

Check out “Contact” below, followed by a list of Kelela’s upcoming (and sold-out) tour dates.
