SHY FX, the London-based DJ, teams up with the soul kings of Manchester, Children of Zeus. Their new collaborative single, “On My Way,” is a heartfelt, groove-laced ride that feels like a personal statement and a tribute to musical chemistry.
“On My Way” wraps you in warmth the moment it starts. SHY FX is a name that goes hand in hand with classic UK rave and reggae-tinged energy. It leans into his soulful side here, and it’s gold. The production, made by SHY FX with James Breakage and Dean Barratt, occupies a lovely middle ground that is light, full, laid-back, and propulsive. A head-nodding beat provides a foundation, while soft keys and smoky textures build emotion.
Children of Zeus bring the track to life. Their vocals drift with effortless sincerity, a blend of bedraggled soul, emotional melodies, and spoken-word swagger. They live within the beat as if it were designed for their specific mix of street poetry and classic R&B sensibility.
“On My Way” reads like an anthem for persistence, the song you put on when you’re forging through the noise of life with quiet determination. The message is mature for artists who have been through the fire but have emerged with heads held high. It’s uplifting without feeling preachy, rooted without ever sounding heavy.
The song “On My Way” is a fellowship of musical minds who honor the roots while expanding the sound. It is a mood, a testament to a late-night drive through city lights or a light post, another long night’s soul-searching. SHY FX is a bridge between sounds and spirits. And with Children of Zeus riding shotgun, “On My Way” is worth taking.
