Exclusive premiere of the new Raphaella video

Check out some sweet dancefloor vibes from British music's best kept secret

Exclusive premiere of the new Raphaella video
01 September 2016

Who? Raphaella

What’s the Story? Perhaps the most prolific British musician/songwriter/producer you’ve never heard of, North London-born Raphaella has collaborated with a huge array of cutting edge names: Rudimental, MNEK, Wilkinson, NVOY, Afrojack, Pep and Rash, Midnight City, and Brit-winner Blair Mackichan to name just a few. It’s safe to say that the industry has Raphaella fever, and from the sound of cool new release Alien, dancefloors throughout clubland are about to catch it too. With a hint of the east-meets-west vibe that can be heard in most of her music and lyrics – a cultural clash that pays reverence to her Persian, English and Scottish heritage – it’s a cool and infectious track that perfectly captures that late-summer sound. Expect it to be a bona fide dance classic this time next year.

For fans of: Rudimental, Gorgon City

In three words: Festival anthem incoming
