HUGEL Drops New Track “La Verdolaga”
Multi-gold and platinum artist, HUGEL’s productions have reached the top spot on Beatport multiple times, including the worldwide smash hit “Morenita” with Cumbiafrica. His globally acclaimed sound has sold out the biggest venues across America, as well as the world’s most sought-after festival stages from Tomorrowland and Lollapalooza to EDC in Las Vegas and Mexico. Now DJ, producer and modern Latin-House movement leader HUGEL debuts his newest track “La Verdolagas.”
“Afro Latin House is finally global and I’m stoked to release among the many legends on Defected Records. ‘La Verdolaga’ is a classic folk Colombian vocal from Toto La Momposina. It is a mix between spiritual rhythm from the jungle and modern electronic music. On every single set I play it and it always creates a moment. It is an Anthem.” – Hugel
Embellished by harmonious Spanish vocals and a light Latin percussive flair, “La Verdolaga” radiates an irresistible impression. Hailing from the south of France in Marseille and having spent much time in Ibiza, HUGEL’s chart-topping house music is inspired by the Balearic Islands and surrounding Mediterranean culture, resulting in an eclectic blend of Latin, Oriental, and tribal rhythms. The final production presents a deep, blissful listening experience that showcases not only HUGEL’s undisputable talent and artistic versatility, but a distinct vision and sonic depth that is authentically his own. “La Verdolaga” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
