SIDEPIECE

Grammy-nominated house duo — greasy basslines and instant grooves, 'On My Mind' the calling card, grooves greasy enough to require napkins.

SIDEPIECE is an American house duo formed by producers Nitti Gritti and Party Favor, who set aside their bass-oriented solo work to make straightforward club tracks together. The project trades in filtered disco loops, thick low end and simple vocal hooks, aimed squarely at peak-time floors rather than headphone listening.

The duo's best-known release is "On My Mind", a collaboration with Diplo built on a rolling bassline and a repeated vocal phrase, which earned a Grammy nomination in the dance recording category. Their subsequent singles have kept to a similar template of house tempos and hooks that land quickly.
