Gian Varela & Steve Andreas Drop Their Noteworthy Collab, “Veneno” (ft. Felicia)

Gian Carlo Varela Castillo, known as Gian Varela, is an internationally acclaimed DJ/producer and songwriter born in Panama and shaped in the USA. Now this international sensation and Latin American leader in dance music has teamed up with Spinnin’ Records signed artist Steve Andreas. With both forces combined they unleash their wide-appealing electronic release “Veneno.” With “Veneno” it feels like multiple cultures clashing together at once without generating any friction.

“I wanted a record that could work globally as a pop-ish record, but make it unique and Latin. So I thought: What would a guaracha record sound like if it were fused with a Dance/Global Pop Record sound? I got to work and “Veneno” was born.” – Gian Varela

“Veneno” is smooth and fluid — the arrangement, writing, and production all harmonically aligning to render a feel that’s cohesive and digestible. “Veneno” is designed to be a fierce attention-grabber from the east to the west, blending together a popular electronic sonic framework with a heavy-dose of Latin pop and guaracha influences. The single exposes an untapped middle ground between the spectrum of house and dance, being yet another factor that influences what will attract a large demographic audience to the sound. Alongside these components, Steve Andreas helps top it off with his vibrant “island” aura injected within, an energy he’s a natural talent at providing. “Veneno” is out now.
