Jengi: “It’s a track with a summer vibe, well suited for any situation. At a festival at daytime, a club at night time, or if you’re travelling or relaxing. You can hear my sound and the Magician’s sound. We both share some harmonic patterns in our music. When the piano is hitting you’ll hear the Magician’s part, it was his idea to build a track around that instrument. You can hear my twist when the vocal chops are entering and the classic m1 house bass / organ. We wanted to make a track with a buildup, something that doesn’t have a particular chorus or verses. It starts very minimal at the beginning but at each drop there will be added more sounds to it. It’s fresh and it has that warm summer feeling.”

The Magician: “We've been collaborating with Jengi on several ideas for a while now, and we're excited to introduce our latest track ‘Things We Do’. This song perfectly blends the nostalgic vibes of 90s house and trance with a fresh, modern tech-house twist. The infectious vocals highlight a timeless message: it's important to do things for love—and for love alone.”

About Jengi
Dutch DJ and producer Jengi has steadily built an image as one of dance music’s most high potential new up-and-comers. In 2022, Jengi officially established himself on a global scale with the immensely infectious Bel Mercy. Initially picked up by Diplo through his Mad Decent imprint, footage of the head honcho playing the track soon went viral, amassing millions of views. Since its December 2022 release on Mad Decent and FFRR, Bel Mercy has seen astonishing success with over 100+ million streams, as well as a mind-blowing 1+ billion views on TikTok and counting. Aside from charting in Jengi’s native the Netherlands, Bel Mercy even entered the British top charts.

Jengi is internationally recognised for his capacities both as a DJ as well as a producer. First gaining traction through his Colors EP, followed by Sprinkles, Rare and Zombies, Jengi’s production skills soon caught the attention of a wide variety of key figures in the industry. His original works were soon succeeded by collaborations with Dutch hip-hop heavyweights FS Green and Bizzey on their House of Pablo bootleg EP, as well as remix work for Bazzi’s viral hit Mine and soon to be followed by a remix of Sam Gellaitry’s Assumptions.

With support from dance music’s brightest stars, from Fred Again.., Skrillex and Four Tet to Diplo, James Hype, Solomun and Tiesto, the 2023 season is looking like it will be a massive leap in the young artist’s career. Jengi is slated to perform at some of the world’s biggest stages, including potentially the biggest of them all, Tomorrowland.
