Rafael and Mishell unite for the first time on Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations with ‘Naughty’—a three-track package dropping on 25th April, featuring collaborations with British-Persian DJ/producer Nariman and vocalist Eliza Legzdina. 

Hotly tipped DJ/producer Rafael has been making his mark on labels like DFTD, Realm, and Maccabi House, including his recent team-up with Sapian for his Collecting Dots debut, ‘What What’. Now, linking up with fellow countryman Mishell, fresh from ‘Cantina’ on Get Physical Music, and ‘Lightweight’ on Diynamic, whose psychedelic take on House and Indie Dance continues to fuel both his productions and his event brand, Mess. Together, they make their label debut on Jones’ Hot Creations with ‘Naughty’, bringing a fresh burst of House energy as they blend their distinctive styles. 

“We came into the studio with no plans, no references—just good energy and a jam session that turned into something we’re really proud of. The idea was to blend tech-house grooves with big room vibes and a subtle ravey touch, and somehow… it just clicked. This EP marks a meaningful moment for us, not only because it’s our first time producing together, but also because throughout this process, we became really close friends. Releasing it on a label we both love and respect makes it even more special.” - Rafael / Mishell 

Rafael and Mishell open ‘Naughty’ with ‘Naaa’, where a punchy kick drum leads the way, building the groove with sharp stabs and twisting percussion. The energy shifts as ‘Naughty’ takes over, blending a menacing edge with a dynamic flow, as techy elements cut through a gritty bassline and warped snippets take you on a trip. To close, Rafael calls up Nariman—who has graced iconic venues like London’s Fabric, Brooklyn Mirage, and Glastonbury Festival—for ‘Another Dimension’, where a fusion of attitude, rich sonics, and energy meet, while Eliza Legzdina’s smooth vocals flow seamlessly throughout. 

Rafael x Mishell ‘Naughty’ EP drops via Hot Creations on 25th April 2025.

California’s LIGHTLEAK has been steadily laying a foundation via his slick blend of Minimal and Deep Tech sonics. After catching the attention of tastemakers like Prunk, Sidney Charles, and Rossi., he made the bold move across the globe to immerse himself in the European electronic scene. Studying the craft and hitting the ground running, LIGHTLEAK clocked over 100 gigs in his debut year alone, bringing his infectious energy to dancefloors across the Dutch capital and beyond. Now, back on home turf, he steps up for his first release on Hottrax with the punchy ‘Shelter’ EP—a three-track package of stripped-back grooves and undeniable dancefloor heat already receiving support from the likes of Carlita and more. 

“Man, I can’t really explain how good it feels to release an EP on one of my dream labels. Jamie Jones has been a staple in the game and has pushed the sound I love to places I’m really proud to see. I had the pleasure of attending his Paradise party in Ibiza last year, and now I feel one step closer to playing one myself. All the long hours in the studio are really starting to pay off.” - LIGHTLEAK 

‘Shelter (Funky Heroes)’ brings high-energy house heat from the jump, layering classic bounce with tight, contemporary energy and vibrant, soulful vocals. ‘Memphis’ steps in next with a rolling, groove-heavy rhythm, peppered with snappy drums and hooky vocal loops, before ‘Hamburg’ delves deep with booming kicks and glossy synth work, signing off the EP with a final statement of intent.
