    “Karol G is such a talented superstar and the perfect addition to this song – When I first heard her smooth vocals on “Don’t Be Shy” I was instantly hooked. I am thrilled to share this collab with both of our fans around the entire world.”

    Tiësto

    “Working with Tiesto has been one of the most beautiful surprises that have happened to me this year. I feel like I manifested it. My playlist includes various songs of his and I listen to them often. When I was approached with the idea to work together and on top of that to sing a song in English my excitement was on another level. First, for the opportunity to be able to work with Tiesto, and second because it would be my first time singing a song completely in English. I’ve always wanted to be known for my music in Spanish, but I also feel like right now it’s the perfect time to experiment, expanding and conquering a different audience.”

    The release comes along with an exciting music video to coincide with the track. Directed by Christian Breslauer, the visualizer has a museum theme and features a breathtaking performance by Karol G with appearances from Tiësto and comedian, Blake Webber.

    Tiësto will celebrate the release of this new single this Saturday at Ayu Dayclub as part of his Las Vegas residency and partnership with Zouk Group and Resorts World Las Vegas with a special launch party to kick off his summer performances entitled “Don’t Be Shy Las Vegas.”

    David Guetta x MistaJam x John Newman – If You Really Love Me (How Will I Know) 

    Kicking off the track with harmonic chord progressions, the collaborative 2021 revival of “If You Really Love Me (How Will I Know)” is a spritely, uplifting rework of the classic dance sensation fans know and love from the 80s. Showcasing the soulful vocals of John Newman at its forefront, the track incorporates a range of futuristic dance elements, hands clapping, and a soaring chorus line that will have fans singing along throughout the summer.

    “Who can resist the chorus from such a classic record as ‘How will I Know’! Full of old skool Piano House grooves, this has sunshine all the way through it. Working with MistaJam and John Newman together has made it my 2021 song of the summer.”

    David Guetta

    “The first Whitney Houston album that the original ‘How Will I Know’ appeared on was always playing in my house growing up. I’ve still got the vinyl! So, it was really cool to flip that meaning of that song into ‘If You Really Love Me (How Will I Know)’ – from something about the start of a relationship to something about the end of one. As an artist I’ve admired for years, it was amazing to finally get to work with David Guetta, especially alongside John Newman who I’ve had the pleasure of supporting since the start of his career.”

    MistaJam

    “I’ve had the idea to remake this classic Whitney tune for so long as it’s a song that’s so special to me and my wife. It felt so natural to bring a new story and emotion of my own to the already incredible song and brought this new version of the song to life. When the opportunity came to do this song with David Guetta, someone who I’ve always wanted to work with – it was complete a no brainer for me.”

    John Newman 

    This track marks the first collaborative release between David Guetta and MistaJam.  Guetta is known for a range of work with music’s top talent including Sia, Rhianna, Akon, Ne-Yo, Afrojack, and more.

    Fred again.. feat. The Blessed Madonna – Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing) [Diplo Remix] 

    Opening with a pulsating beat and the voice of dance music icon The Blessed Madonna in the distance, Diplo provides a driving techno-infused remix of Fred again’s original “Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing).” Paired with a nostalgic video that depicts crowded raves and venues, the concept of the track was written amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and is an ode to the things we take for granted in life.

    “Marea and I met in Palestine around 5 years ago now. I call her my rave shaman. I think she’s that for a lot of other people too, to be honest! Her ability to tell stories and share things has always been a particularly beautiful part of her beautiful mind, so I guess it makes sense that I ended up making a song out of sampling one of our conversations! She’s a real hug of a human.”

    Fred again..

    Co-produced by Boston Bun, “Marea (We Lost Dancing)” is the latest in a series of Actual Life releases from Fred again.. which also includes the tracks, “Julia (Deep Diving)”, “Jessie (I Miss You)” and “Kyle (I Found You).”
