by The single marks the explosive beginning of OFFAIAH’s new record label, just in time for Summer, following a year of chart-topping releases
Argentinian producer OFFAIAH reveals his sizzling new single, the percussive ‘Loco’, made with Chicago’s Twan and San Diego’s Cole-Man, out 9th August.
This single is the first on OFFAIAH’s new record label, ALL FIRE, an imprint for all-killer-no-filler club jams launching in the midst of a huge year for the producer, that’s seen him work with the likes of Skrillex and release music on Defected and Toolroom.
‘Loco’ carries the label’s ‘all fire’ ethos in fiery fashion. It’s a rattling track that priotises groove and danceablity above anything, swapping any shred of a chart-chasing chorus or emotive momet for a floor-filling frenzy of percussion.
English-born, Argentina-based OFFAIAH’s 2024 has been full of showstopping moments. It’s a year in which he’s hit 2.2 million monthly Spotify listeners, over 1 billion combined DSP streams, placed #1 in the Beatport techno chart with his track ‘When I Push’ and #1 twice in the Beatport House chart with his stunning David Penn collab, ‘Satisfied’, and his solo track, ‘Hands’. His smash hit Drumcode release, ‘When I Push’, made with Eli Brown and Layton Giordani, was noticed by Skrillex in May, who re-jigged the track into a massive EDM-style dubstep banger that’s been causing carnage on major stages such as Coachella.
It’s been twenty years since OFFAIAH started making music, and eight years since he released his Charlie Puth-flipping debut single, ‘Trouble’, in 2016, which reached #1 in the BBC Radio 1 dance chart, was made a ‘Future Dance Anthem’ by Danny Howard, and gained support from Pete Tong and Annie Mac. During these years, the ex-trance producer (FKA Michael Woods) has built up tons of experience DJing live, gracing the decks at the world’s biggest dance music venues and festivals, including The Brooklyn Mirage, Tomorrowland, Ushuaïa Ibiza, Printworks, Parklife, Creamfields and EDC.
Hailing from the ruthless house scene of Chicago, 24-year-old ‘Loco’ co-creator TWAN stands tall among a sea of producers, being noticed for his unique combination of Chicago-inspired old school house grooves and minimal melodic techno vibes. Alongside a slew of awesome edits on his SoundCloud, TWAN’s released on the likes of Optics Records, Damme Good Music, Golf Clap’s Country Club Disco, and is set to deliver for Flashmob Records very soon.
San Diego-based Cole-Man is another newcomer with serious potential. A producer of melodic techno with huge hooks and creative sound design, his journey began with him putting out self releases during the Covid-19-induced lockdown, followed by releases on Craze Records. He’s played mianstage DJ sets at Insomniac’s Nova Nightclub, joined lineups at the likes of Bass Camp Festival and Shipwreck fest, and shared the stage with huge EDM names such as Deadmau5, Madeon, Ghastly, Destructo, Flux Pavillion, Walker & Royce, A-Trak and more
‘Loco’, the first single to drop on All Fire, is an exciting sign of things to come from OFFAIAH and this exciting new label. Flexing a heavily percussive sound, it’s a collaboration for die hard dancers who are looking to get lost in a groove.
