Delta Heavy – ‘S.T.A.Y.‘ – Going strong since their RAM single ‘Kaleidoscope,’ Delta Heavy are now back with a unique take on Hans Zimmer‘s instant classic, ‘S.T.A.Y.‘ from the motion picture Interstellar. This self-release serves as a passion project for the two bass music aficionados, who are both avid fans and admirers of the prolific composers extensive catalogue.
Ben Hall & Simon James will be the first to tell you about their borderline obsession with Hans Zimmer. Having seen the composer multiple times in concert, the two men have been inspired by his compositions. For their latest track they did not initially aim to create the tribute streamable, rather the two producers unintentionally penned an orchestral introduction, only noticing the similarities afterwards.

As huge fans of the Christopher Nolan directed film Interstellar, the duo recreated the main theme ‘S.T.A.Y.,’ adding their instantly recognizable drum n’ bass twist to the tribute. Blending orchestral percussion with dark horns and sharp synthetic sounds, the track combines Zimmer‘s melodic prowess with Delta Heavy‘s aggressive brand, forming one gloriously adapted film score.
With quite a few dates on the horizon, including a massive hometown show on June 9th at the legendary Fabric, the duo are staying busy. If fans can’t make one of their upcoming shows, catch Ben and Simon on iHeart Radio (US Only) via their show Paradise Lost Radio here! The show features the very best in Drum & Bass for 1 hour every second Friday at 9pm PST Friday / 12am EST Saturdays.
