"Overdrive" is a song by French DJ duo Ofenbach featuring American singer Norma Jean Martine. It was released on 6 October 2023 through Elektra France and marks their second collaboration, following "Head Shoulders Knees & Toes" (2020).

Background and composition

[edit]

Following the commercial success of "Head Shoulders Knees & Toes" in 2020, the duo and Martine came together for a second time to work on more music.[1] "Overdrive" prominently samples "Cambodia" (1981) by Kim Wilde. The original melody was slightly revamped and sped-up by the duo, making the final song sound "brighter" and "more energetic" than the original. Making of the song was partially uploaded to TikTok ahead of the release.[2]

Talking about the sample choice, César de Rummel revealed that Dorian Lauduique has always been a big fan of the song and proposed to do a cover version one day. De Rummel agreed but intended to "do something different with it", which eventually led to the collaboration with Martine.[3]

Music video

[edit]

An accompanying music video was shot in November 2023 and first teased by the duo on their social media on 13 November. This music video is out since January 2024. It has already reached 4 million views [4]
