Random Soul – Thinking About You (Jay Bhana Remix) – Random Soul Recordings
It was an absolute honour to remix a Random Soul track! Yogi’s smooth vocals blend seamlessly with the groove. I’m eager to see how this one hits the crowd — I’m betting it’ll be phones out, blue Shazam screens

Jay Bhana ft. Tiffany Sharee – Running Outta Time (Husky’s Deluxe Mix) – Bobbin Head Music
Husky’s take on my soulful original blew me away the first time I heard it! This track is particularly special as I first recorded the vocals back in South Africa in 2012. After making the journey with me to Australia, it finally saw the light of day 12 years later, with a remix from someone I deeply respect in the industry. Couldn’t be happier with this release!
DJ Daniel D – No Passinho (Nytron Remix) – DWorx Music
This one’s a bit of a wildcard in my sets. I stumbled across it and fell in love with its retro groove and electro flair from the very first beat! I love that I can drop it in the middle of a house set, and it works every time.
Moon Boots – Hypnotizin’ (Main Mix) – Jackies Music
I love everything Moon Boots puts out, and this track is no exception! The classic vocal laid over that groovy bassline and keys—it’s pure magic.

Smalltown DJs – Brass City (Original Mix) – Tinted Records
Simplicity at its finest. A bouncy bassline, infectious horns, and perfectly placed vocals—everything about this track screams FUN!
Ludo Lacoste – Something’s Coming Over (Extended Mix) – Motive Records
The way this track uses Madonna’s vocals is just sublime. It’s an undeniable dance floor mover!
weS! ft. Duende – Don’t Talk (Dub) – Guesthouse Music
Though it’s been out for a while, I only recently discovered it. It brings back nostalgic vibes of the soulful house I played in the mid-2000s. The keys on this one are absolute perfection.
Soubeiran, Mont Rouge – Ya Peli (Extended Mix) – Ultra Records
The guitar and vocals on this track hit me every time. This is Afro house, exactly as it should be.
Jay Bhana – Squatter Camp (Extended Mix) – Bobbin Head Music
A shameless plug for one of my own releases on Bobbin Head. This track took over a decade to complete, and the result is poolside vibes with a touch of South African soul.
Chase Creighton – Ayaya (Extended Mix) – Glasgow Underground
The perfect blend of a powerful Afro vocal, euphoric keys, and a killer breakdown. It’s been a crowd favourite, loved by everyone on the dance floor!
