Meet your new summer earworm: José Sanchez's ‘Next To Me (La La La)’

Luxembourg's dance music scene has never been shy about producing talent, but few artists have been as relentlessly productive in recent years as DJ José Sanchez. Now, he’s taking a stylish detour into new territory with the release of Next To Me (La La La), his very first Nu-Disco track.

Fresh off the success of club track Fire, Sanchez returns with a track that swaps raging dancefloor intensity for shimmering grooves, feel-good energy and a hook that refuses to leave your head. Released through Swishcraft Music this month, Next To Me (La La La) blends disco nostalgia with modern house production.

From the opening beats, the track wastes no time getting down to business. Crisp percussion drives the momentum forward while soaring female vocals glide across pulsating basslines and sparkling synths. But it's the instantly memorable "La La La" refrain that steals the show. It's simple, catchy and designed for maximum crowd participation, the sort of chorus that thousands of festival-goers will inevitably find themselves singing long after the music stops.

What's particularly interesting is how Next To Me (La La La) marks a new chapter for Sanchez. While longtime fans will know him for his heavy-hitting club sound, this latest offering leans heavily into the colourful world of Nu-Disco, a genre that has enjoyed a huge resurgence thanks to its ability to combine classic disco warmth with contemporary electronic production. The result is a sound that feels both familiar and fresh.

The release also continues what has been an impressively busy period for the Luxembourg DJ and producer. Over the past few years Sanchez has built a steadily growing catalogue spanning house, soulful house, Latin-infused electronic sounds and now Nu-Disco, while releasing music through a variety of international labels. His recent output has demonstrated a willingness to experiment without losing sight of what matters most: making people move.

With festival season now in full swing and summer temperatures climbing, Next To Me (La La La) arrives at exactly the right moment. It's uplifting, danceable and unapologetically fun, everything a summer anthem should be.

So if you're looking for a soundtrack to accompany summer drinks, open-air festivals or spontaneous dance moves in your kitchen, José Sanchez is your man!

La la la... good luck getting that one out of your head!
