Out Now On SLAPPED Records
Montreal’s own Mitch Oliver is back with a fresh slice of melodic house, teaming up with the mysterious Might Delete Later on their new single, ‘Secret.’ Known for weaving deep, atmospheric soundscapes with grooves that hit just right, Mitch has racked up over 2 million Spotify streams, landing tracks on labels like Get Physical and Glasgow Underground. This time, he’s diving into uncharted territory, bringing raw emotion and an unexpected voicemail twist to the mix. ‘Secret’ isn’t just another release – it’s a heady sonic journey that pulls you into a world of midnight musings and hidden desires.
‘Secret’ drops as the fourth release on Mitch’s own SLAPPED Records, blending his textured production with Might Delete Later’s signature lyrical artistry. The track kicks off with a real voicemail from a mystery caller in Australia, setting the stage for a story that leaves you guessing – love confession, deep regret, or a secret better left unsaid? It’s a raw, intriguing listen that invites you into a world of unfiltered emotions.
When Mitch Oliver and Might Delete Later linked up online, it wasn’t your typical collaboration. They hit it off instantly, vibing over shared midnight ideas and vocal snippets that felt raw and real. After their first collab, ‘Control Z’ back in February, which was built around a pack of vocal hooks, they decided to dive deeper with ‘Secret.’ Mitch sent over a brooding instrumental and Might Delete Later knew exactly what it needed: an eerie voicemail left by a stranger at 3 AM, whispering, “There are things I want to tell you, but I don’t know how.” The duo ran with it, layering the track with haunting vocals and shadowy textures. The result? A seductive blend of deep house and late-night confessions that blurs the lines between dancefloor anthem and a private diary entry.
Mitch recalls the creative process: “As soon as I heard the hook Might Delete Later came up with, I knew this track was going to be something special. The voicemail was the perfect finishing touch, giving the song a personal and intimate feel that’s both intriguing and relatable.”
Might Delete Later continues, “Mitch has a special spot in my heart since he was introduced to me by the wonderful Canadian producer and DJ, Sinca, after we exchanged a long walk through the Vondelpark while listening to demos with my headphone splitter during ADE”
For Might Delete Later, whose creative process revolves around voicemails from strangers, ‘Secret’ is another step in her unique musical journey. Each of her tracks begins with a real voicemail, and her inbox is filled daily with messages from around the world. This organic and intimate approach to song writing has garnered her a rapidly growing fanbase, with standout moments including a performance at Tomorrowland’s Freedom stage, where she played a track featuring a voicemail from an audience member in real-time.
The title and lyrics of ‘Secret’ reflect the complexity and allure of hidden emotions and unspoken words. The voicemail acts as a metaphor for the secrets we keep and the stories we hesitate to share. Mitch’s production – featuring deep basslines, ethereal synths, and delicate, twinkling keys – complements Might Delete Later’s evocative vocals, resulting in a track that’s both danceable and introspective.
Mitch Oliver has been making serious waves, especially in South America, where his deep grooves have turned late-night sets into sunrise spectacles. Whether he’s spinning at underground clubs in Buenos Aires or throwing down in Bogotá, he’s built a loyal following that connects deeply with his hypnotic sound. Industry icons like Hernan Cattaneo and Sam Divine are already fans, and it’s easy to see why. From blasting beats at Burning Man to dropping tracks mid-air in a hot air balloon at Quebec’s Montgolfières Festival, Mitch isn’t just DJing – he’s curating wild, unforgettable experiences. With tour dates stacking up fast, he’s on a mission to keep pushing the melodic house scene into new territory.
