Brooklyn-based underground house duo Walker & Royce recently gave the world a taste of their debut EP You’re Not Welcome – featuring the original, and remix of title track “You’re Not Welcome” from recent Crosstown recruit Francesca Lombardo and B-side “Stare If You Want To,” set to drop via Crosstown Rebels.
The original delivers a powerful, infectious atmosphere paired with hot, fluttering synths below echoing vocals that plead, “Won’t you set me free? You keep coming around…you’re not welcome.”
