French DJ Hugel is expanding his critically acclaimed debut album, 'Twenty One,' with a forthcoming deluxe edition. The original album, released in June, marked two decades since Hugel began his DJing career and has topped Spotify's Global Top Albums chart.
Hugel crafted 'Twenty One' while touring, drawing inspiration from diverse locations and musical styles including Afro house, Latin house, hip-hop, R&B, and dance. The album boasts collaborations with artists such as Snoop Dogg, Big Sean, and David Guetta.
A significant highlight is Hugel's collaboration with his idol, Snoop Dogg, who initiated contact directly via Instagram with the message, "Let's make a hit." Their first track together is featured on the original album, with a second song slated for the deluxe release. Hugel also embraced new technology by being the first international DJ to use AI in his track 'Movin' to the Sun,' a decision he views as a calculated risk that paid off.
Hugel emphasizes his connection with fans, stating he is "for the people" and aims to spread love and happiness through his music, inspiring others in a society often focused on negativity.
