Kendi - Connected (Squash 84 Edit)

"There's something between us"

Hey, it's a female/male version of Iglu & Hartly! And, they're from Finland of all places. Kendi call themselves a dance duo, which they definitely are, but there's a huge focus on really poppy rap/hip-hop as well. Only this time it's the girl doing the rapping. Kendi have scored a couple of synth-powered hits already this year in their homeland and they definitely deserve it. Their danceable songs remind me of something that would be really popular in the UK...in fact their sound borrows heavily from many of the dance artists that have been on Radio One this year. In other words, they don't sound anything like you'd expect from Finland. The single Connected is their best song by far, so I'm posting a remix of it today, though I'd recommend checking out the original as well.
