Producer and DJ Sofi Moon steps out with her debut EP, ‘WHOA:’ marking a new chapter in her journey, she sets her sights on carving out her space within Electronic Music, beginning this next phase of her artistry with passion, drive, and creativity. A two-track collection, the EP comes as a collaborative effort alongside Shawn Jackson, revealing groove, energy, and a clear creative vision across its soundscapes. Out now via Crossing Boarders Records, Shawn Jackson’s own label, ‘WHOA’ marks a powerful introduction to Sofi Moon’s sonic identity – laying a solid foundation for her evolution within the genre and hinting at the promising road ahead.
Emerging on the Latin Electronic Music scene, Lima-based Sofi Moon has been making waves with her groove-rich soundscapes and distinct energy. Whilst still early on in her journey, her presence has already garnered attention across the local music scene, seeing her take to the decks on some of Peru’s most respected stages, like La Casona de Camaná and the Domingos de Furia show in Barranco. Now stepping into the spotlight with her debut release, Sofi Moon channels her signature blend of Tech House and Deep Tech, aiming to extend her reach and share her sound with the global Electronic Music community, leaning on the support and mentorship of Producer, DJ, and label owner, Shawn Jackson.
Across ‘WHOA,’ listeners can immerse themselves in a world where infectious beats and deep-rooted grooves meet; featuring melodic basslines, shuffled beats, and Latin-flavoured details, like vibrant vocal layers and percussion, each track on the EP offers a dynamic blend of bold rhythms and high-impact sound – crafted with the dancefloor in mind. From the pulsing synth hits and choppy vocal cuts in the title track to the gritty lead and urgent-sounding spoken hooks in ‘Dige De,’ both tracks unfold into intricately designed tapestries of sound, incorporating atmospheric textures and tightly layered elements whilst adding a hint of playfulness through expressive vocal touches. A debut that fuses soul, energy, and sonic detail, ‘WHOA’ is a release that captures the essence of Sofi Moon’s creative direction moving forward, cohesively balancing against Shawn Jackson’s own signature sound to deliver music that feels both fresh and engaging.
As she continues to evolve both in the studio and behind the decks, Sofi Moon is shaping a sound grounded in her identity and guided by her creative instincts. Drawing from her Latin roots and a deep passion for the scene, her work reflects an artist striving for creative individuality, pushing boundaries to bring emotive yet vibrant music to the global Electronic Music stage.
