This young talented soul has already gained huge appreciation around the globe. From the momentย DJ Shaanย took the stage at theย Sunburnย festival in Goa at the tender age of 15, it was clear that he possessed an extraordinary talent that would take him far. His impressive performances quickly gained him a legion of devoted fans, both at live events and on social media.ย The fact that he was the leading pioneer in Indian dance music led to some of the major labels taking huge interest in him.ย His record deal withย Armada Musicย and performances at iconic events such asย Tomorrowlandย andย Ministry of Soundย were just the start of his wild adventure. Shaan’s remixes forย Steve Aokiย and Louisย Tomlinsonย were smashing successes,ย generating 1.5ย million streams at the time.
DJ Shaan’s introduction to the major label music industryย was elegant,ย with his signing toย Virgin EMIย andย Republicย Records. He also releasedย several singlesย forย these labels. His remix ofย AKON‘s “Bananza” propelled him to the stratosphere as the most streamed official remix, currently boasting 8.2 million streams on Spotify. Shaan is known for his ability to get the crowdย goingย and hasย been producingย dance electro-pop for years. However, he has nowย decided to experiment with a slightly differentย beat. Theย Tell You Somethingย record labelย welcomesย this new sound from the talented artist.
Shaan revealed thatย “Giants” cameย from deep within him. He stumbled upon the vocals of ADN Lewis during a tough time in his life, and found the lyrics empowering and uplifting. The line “but my heart is one that all the lions fear” particularly resonated with him. The track centers around shedding old patterns and embracing new beginnings, represented by the concept of “giants”. To reflect this theme, Shaan incorporated uplifting sounds and melodies and even drew inspiration from traditional Indian music. This included the percussion from a stick dance in northeast India. โGiantsโ is now available on all major streaming platforms: https://tys.complete.me/giants
