Following an explosive start in September 2025 with their most recent single “Maximum”, powerhouse duo Anti Up which are made up of Chris Lake and Chris Lorenzo, make a triumphant return with their electrifying second release of the year, “I Cannot”, dropping on November 7th via their own imprint, Anti Up. Their momentum this year has been nothing short of explosive. The pair made a high-profile return to the stage with a standout live performance at Portola Festival in San Francisco on September 19th, commanding a fully packed Warehouse stage just before The Chemical Brothers took the stage. “Maximum” and the live show served as the perfect reintroduction, earning widespread acclaim both online and from the untamed and chaotic festival crowd. Now, “I Cannot” arrives as the essential follow up, showcasing everything that makes Anti Up a staple in the modern house scene. Anchored by a hypnotic vocal hook and underpinned by irresistibly bouncy basslines, and driving, industrial strength synths, and a drop so explosive and unapologetic, it commands attention the moment it hits. The record has already caught the attention of major international tastemakers as Mau P played the record during his sold-out shows at Los Angeles State Historic Park on October 10th and 11th, while Peggy Gou included it in her set during the closing ceremony at UNVRS, further cementing its status as a staple anthem that’s here to stay. Together, as Anti Up, they represent more than a collaboration with their manifesto - Never established. Never limited. Keep Calm. Says Who?. With a shared ethos rooted in rebellion, inclusivity, and uncompromising creativity, Anti Up continues to carve out a lane entirely their own where rules are broken, boundaries are blurred, and authenticity reigns supreme.
