Maya Blandy ‘Disco Nights’ (Incl. OPOLOPO and Mannix Mixes) Dafia Records

After a great year with single releases from Mannix, D.C. LaRue, Paris Cesvette and more, Dafia Records’ final single for 2024 comes courtesy of up-and-coming Portuguese / British singer and songwriter, Maya Blandy, with a shimmering floor filler produced by Jake Wherry (The Herbaliser) titled, ‘Disco Nights’. Kicking off this party-season-ready package, Swedish maestro OPOLOPO brings his smooth funky flavas with a groovilicious mix, plumped with Jazzy brass melodies and signature key wizardry that flows beautifully around Maya’s catchy vocals. Dafia boss Mannix injects a funky live bass groove, discofied guitar licks and piano melodies on his vibrant mix, propelling the song into the Disco House arena. Along with some playful dubs from OPOLOPO and Mannix, the package also features the irresistible downtempo soulful and jazzy vibes of Maya & Jake’s outstanding original song.
