You made a dancefloor banger. Do you want to keep it as an instrumental, or find a great vocalist to sing on it?

What combination of genres did you use for this track?

At the first part you can hear some tropical marimbas then the track increases power with reggaeton drums and finally the secret its the cumbia part that identify me !!

Please tell us about your creative process for the song: how did you get it started?

Well I was traveling while I was djing and I went to the jungle for a gig and I saw a trible screaming hewoo and I record it and I play the main melody so I started with the vocal chops and the main melody

There’s a beautiful simplicity in this track. How do you stop yourself from “overdoing it” and know when to finish working? What’s your test for when to say “I am done!”
