London-based, Australian-born producer, songwriter and DJ, HAAi, unveils ‘DIGITiSE’, a dancefloor-focused ode to her community that sees HAAi working with several  collaborators, including Skybreak and Cantoalegre, who both appear on ‘Talking Walls.’

HAAi x Skybreak ‘Talking Walls’ (feat. Cantoalegre) is a sonic journey through some of the  sounds and influences that have opened up to her from playing DJ sets. The track  showcases both HAAi and Skybreak’s sonic worlds and the addition of a choir – Cantoalegre  Colombian children’s choir – is reminiscent of the choirs that appear on the previous album,  a thread that brings deep emotion to the track. “It’s one to hug your mates to at the festival.”

‘DIGITiSE’ extends the world of 2025’s album ‘HUMANiSE,’ but has become something so  much bigger, an album of killer dance floor cuts that shows this indomitable artist going from  strength to strength. Describing the album as its predecessor’s “bigger, ravey sibling”, HAAi  goes on to explain that “’DIGITiSE’ holds the hand of ‘HUMANiSE’ and walks it to the club”.  

“I’ve spent so many hours in clubs – on the dance floor and in the booth – and I really wanted  to put that into this new album” explains HAAi as ‘DIGITiSE’ takes us on a genre-defying  dancefloor trip, the kind that HAAi has become revered for. 

HAAi will be in action this month with a series of dates that includes an all-night open-to close set at EartH in London on 31 October, with production and set design by Playbody,  and a 10-hour marathon set at Refuge in New York on 18 October. These shows arrive  off the back of a string of festival dates that included a 100% production set at Maiden  Voyage, World Pride Amsterdam, and WeCanDance. In addition, she has just announced  an Australian tour with The Avalanches for 2027.

The ‘DIGITiSE’ album is available here.
