Following her first solo outing and years of experience as one half of the well-regarded Husky project, Ukrainian DJ and producer ALIIRA returns with a confident new step forward. 

Her Escucha EP on Zatar brings together two original tracks and two standout remixes, showcasing both her evolving solo voice and her deep roots in the club landscape.

The title track “Escucha” is a vibrant, punchy, electro-leaning house cut built around infectious vocal chops and crisp percussion. It’s a track that balances energy with clarity, direct and effective, but never overworked. 

Danish producer NILU (DK) and Zatar Labelhead Phonique take the reins on the remix, flipping the track into a more angular and urgent, sharp and edgy rework that leans into tension and groove, tailored for peak-time play.

The second track, “Devi”, dives into warmer, more hypnotic tech house territory. Its rolling rhythm and subtly layered melodies are joined by processed guitar textures, lending the track a slightly psychedelic edge without losing its forward drive. 

London based producer Urmet K strips down the track to its abosulte essentials to create a trippy, grooving house cut for the summer.

TRACKLIST -- https://www.dummymag.com/mix/dummy-mix-539-neana/

Through a string of Night Slugs releases and that of his ex-label, the now-defunct Gang Fatale, Neana has built a name for himself as someone continually challenging club conventions. The Manchester-based producer’s own productions push the boundaries yet keep things very much moving on the ‘floor. Having put out his ‘Renegade Lakes‘ EP this month – his last since releasing his ‘Evaser’ EP on Night Slugs, he’s been prolific throughout 2018 and beyond, dropping ‘Private Joke‘ amongst other singles. Contributing an overwhelmingly (and highly welcomed) self-produced hour of music, Neana’s Dummy Mix is a mesmeric showcase of his sound, spanning aquatic club flavours, jersey bounce and pointillist drums. Tune in now – and peep the tracklist after the jump.
