Samir and Diego, the Dutch duo better known as Moksi have been smashing festival stages, club dancefloors with their versatile tunes. Previosuly the duo has remixed for the top guns such as DJ Snake (‘Propaganda’), Valentino Khan (‘Deep Down Low’), Hardwell (‘Mad World’) and Yellow Claw (‘Till it Hurts’, ‘Feel It’, ‘No Class’). With more than 45 releases, the duo is all set to dominate the scene. They have been rapidly growing in popularity, thanks to their unique style of bass-house and their signing to Yellow Claw’s Barong Family label back in 2015.

6. 2017 was a huge year for Moksi. Can you share a bit of your work with Hardwell and DJ SNAKE?

Moksi: We know Hardwell for over 10 years now. We were friends far before the big success. So this collab was just a text away and we finished in under 2 days. Our brother DJ Snake came to us with an idea for a song. We were HOOKED and Pigalle was created within 7 days. One of our all time favorite Moksi songs.

7. You guys are making your way to India next month for the first time, what do you expect?
