Buy / Stream : Today, prolific Haitian DJ/producer Francis Mercier releases “Strangers (Do You Remember),” an infectious, daytime Afro house belter with collaborators David Tort, Markem, Yas Cepeda, and vocals from EURI. Delivering tracks to soundtrack the summer of 2023, this blistering new single comes via Tiesto’s record label, Musical Freedom, which is home to some of the greatest dance records in the world. Over the past few years, Francis Mercier’s meteoric rise has led him to become one of the most significant producers/DJs in the dance music scene, garnering 45M streams across his catalog. Francis is consistently reaching new performance milestones, most recently DJing over two weekends at Coachella in the heralded Yuma Tent and taking on Ibiza via Blue Marlin. While constantly touring the globe, he also finds the time to run his label, Deep Root Records, one of the few 100% black-owned dance labels. Francis has an unparalleled talent for conjuring irresistible worldly rhythms, and that is exactly what is heard in this new single. Beginning with his Afro-influenced percussion and followed by a deep, dynamic bassline, Francis builds the song up piece-by-piece before revealing the main motif: a sun-soaked guitar lick that is perfect for the summer season. “Strangers” is my most exciting release of the summer. Every time I play it, it uplifts the energy and warmth of everyone in the room around me. I am also very happy with the outcome of the production - the strings, piano, cinematic pads, and afro percussive elements all meld perfectly together.” – Francis Mercier Winning two Latino Dance Awards in 2022, David Tort is an influential Spanish DJ/producer who is based in Barcelona.
