LA-based producer TOBEHONEST has long outgrown his humble beginnings as a university DJ. He has cemented himself as a worldwide sensation known for fusing Latin and European influences into his club-ready house music. He’s returning to Insomniac Records to offer up his first standalone single on the label.
“Hey Ya” is vibrant tech house primed for golden hour and late-night dance sessions. It revolves around a warm, infectious vocal delivery about getting lost on the dancefloor amid low-slung basslines, snappy bongo fills, swirling staccato melodies, and a sauntering Latin-tinged lead.
“In the past I’ve never written melodic music,” TOBEHONEST says. “But with this record, I tried something new and I believe it has it all – a catchy vocal, a vibrant lead, and a pumping baseline. It shows my versatility as an artist by taking melodic elements and combining them with my TOBEHONEST drum driven production. The team and I worked really hard to get everything together for this record. We all believe this song is a summer hit. After you hear it, I think you’ll know why.”
Championed by superstars including HUGEL, Gordo, Kyle Watson, Cloonee, Joshwa, John Summit, and Chris Lake, TOBEHONEST previously graced the labels with his “Horny” collab alongside San Pacho and his “I Am The One” track with Biscits, amassing 1.2M and 2.4M streams, respectively.
TOBEHONEST has headlined performances at CHVRCH of John (Edmonton), Sub Rosa (Calgary), Sound Nightclub LA, Superior Ingredients (NYC), Smoke & Mirrors (Chicago), as well as a festival performance at Countdown NYE and a mini tour in Brazil as support for Victor Lou.
