In a constantly evolving and expanding global electronic music industry, the Colombian contribution resonates more strongly than ever. Gaia Music, the project led by the talented DJ and producer from Cali, Valeria Salinas, is rapidly gaining ground in the world’s most competitive markets, delivering a vibrant offering focused on genres like Afro House and Tech House, fusing dancefloor energy with an unmistakable Latin identity.
Gaia Music and J Aristi join forces to reinvent “Ay Amor,” the iconic tropical music hit popularized by Grupo Combo Tropical. Taking the iconic vocal and lyrical foundation of the original track, the Colombian duo transforms this gem of the Latin repertoire into a contagious and hypnotic Afro Tech and Latin House track.
The production stands out for its interweaving of warm, organic percussion and deep bass with the melancholic vocals of the classic, achieving the perfect balance between tropical nostalgia and the energy of the modern dance floor. “Ay Amor” is an elegant and intergenerational offering that demonstrates how Hispanic folklore continues to set the standard in the global electronic music scene.
“Ay Amor” is a cutting-edge electronic track born from the collaboration between Gaia Music and J Aristi, who join forces to deliver a production that fuses the warmth of Latin melodies with the pulsating energy of contemporary electronic dance music.
Gaia’s rise is no accident. Her skill behind the decks and her musical vision have allowed her to make her way in high-profile venues such as Spain, Dubai, and the United States. This sustained growth has the strategic backing of Cumac Bookings, one of the most influential Spanish agencies in the international electronic music circuit. Founded in Galicia in 2013, the company has integrated the Colombian artist into an exclusive global roster, working with a network of specialized festivals and clubs.
Gaia’s presence in this high-level representation structure reflects the extraordinary moment her career is experiencing. Over the past few years, the Cali-born artist has shared the stage with global icons of the scene, including the successful producer Hugel and Chelina Manuhutu, one of the most influential female figures in global tech house (renowned for her residencies in Ibiza and sets at Tomorrowland and EDC).
Her live performances deeply connect with audiences from diverse cultures. They are characterized by dynamic sets, 100% focused on the dance floor and built around the contemporary sounds that dominate the global industry today.
