It’s an absolute honor to present the first installment in a new series from one of my most-played and beloved producers in the game—Hotmood. With this single, he further cements his status as a master of the sample and groove, delivering a track that’s equal parts powerful and hypnotic. On the flip, Shabi’s remix offers the perfect counterbalance: deep, dubby, and irresistibly smooth.

For fans of: disco edits, soul music, warm Rhodes dubs, and timeless music with a message.

UPCOMING APPEARANCES:

Wahine–an award-winning radio show host, music blogger, interviewer, and event producer–has worn many hats since returning to the decks after a 10-year hiatus. Her comeback began with winning the Defected Croatia Mix Contest in 2019, making her international debut at the festival and reigniting her DJ career.

Her appearance at the Defected festival alongside house legends and luminaries propelled her into the spotlight of the international disco and house scene, leading to her current status as a globally celebrated talent. 

She co-hosts Spin City on MyHouseRadio.fm and is a Passion Ibiza Radio resident. She has contributed guest mixes to various platforms including NTS, Mi-House, Sinestesia Ibiza, and Disco Deviance.

Her mashups have charted on Hypeddit, gaining support from radio shows worldwide. She hosts events in Atlanta, including her signature event, Wahine’s Hideaway, featuring international guests like Dicky Trisco, TORIBIO, Fran Deeper and The Funk District.

Described as “Disco in Paradise,” her sound is sundrenched and full of global influences. Funky licks are spiced with percussive jams. Equal parts brains and brawn with every beat telling a story of rhythm and roots.
