#56 Top Releases in Indie Dance

Aiwaska returns with 'Culture', a powerful new single featuring the unmistakable voice of Thomas Gandey, delivering a timeless dancefloor weapon that sits perfectly on the edge of house and tech house. Built around a driving groove, rolling low-end, and hypnotic rhythm, Culture captures Aiwaska's signature organic energy while maintaining a sharp, modern club sensibility. Thomas Gandey's commanding and emotionally charged vocals elevate the track to another level, adding depth, attitude, and a strong narrative presence that cuts through any peak-time set. The release is further reinforced by a remix from Malandra Jr., who takes the original into a more mysterious and indie dance direction. His interpretation strips the track into a darker, more atmospheric journey, making it equally effective for late-night dancefloors and alternative club moments. With its blend of classic dancefloor appeal, contemporary production, and versatile remix, 'Culture' is a must-have record for DJs this season-equally at home in peak-time house sets and deeper, more hypnotic selections.
