Chinese-American techno talent HELANG drops new single 'Hits Different' on HILOMATIK

MayChinese-American producer and DJ HELANG has stepped up to HILOMATIK, the techno sub-label of Oliver Heldens’ Heldeep Records, with her latest tune 'Hits Different' which arrives on 2 May.

HELANG has fomented her own deep, driving techno sound and it comes layered with atmospheric textures with support from the likes of Maceo Plex, Marco Faraone and Richie Hawtin. Last time out she impressed with her Flashback EP on HE.SHE.THEY. Records and launched her own label Dauntless Records in 2023. It recently hosted the second edition of its female-only event showcase in Brooklyn, which underlines her dedication to offering up inclusive spaces in the scene.

Timed with the start of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, 'Hits Different' is another forward thinking techno cut with potent drums and arresting synths that show why she sits right at the forefront.

Says HELANG, “I feel like I always am, but especially lately, living life through a lens of discovery, adventure, and seduction. When I sit down and write music, I am the most inspired by how I feel connected to the art of mystery. The small things that can make us get up and dance and be ourselves is the core purpose of my craft, and 'Hits Different' is an attestment of that. It’s a really powerful feeling when you listen to a certain song and it can bring back so many nostalgic feelings whether they remind you of a memory or person.”

'Hits Different' is sure to make another big impression on the dance floor and you can listen to it here.
