Helang is a Chinese American producer and DJ, who specializes in crafting an eclectic. club friendly sound that blends elements of house and techno with ethereal soundscapes and driving, dynamic grooves. Throughout a series of releases through HE.SHE.THEY., HILOMATIK and Set About, before she launched her own label Dauntless Records, the Chinese-American producer and DJ had developed a reputation for being an outspoken artist, who always stands her ground — and for a sound that’s an authentic and deeply artistic expression of herself, in which she never shies away from pushing back against conventions.
She has played sets at The Brooklyn Mirage and Kappa Futur Festival and others. Building upon a growing profile in the electronic music scene, she has shared stages with Adam Beyer, Charlotte De Witte, Eric Prydz, Amelie Lens, Nicole Moudaber, CamelPhat and a growing list of luminaries. Additionally, she has received features in Billboard, DJ Mag, Forbes, Mixmag, Beatportal and 6am group.
Her latest single “Firehot” is a bombastic club banger that sees Helang pairing wall and ceiling rattling thump, glistening and wobbling synth stabs and a sultrily yearning vocal sample with euphoria inducing hooks and massive drops. Sonically recalling JOVM mainstay LutchamaK and Between Two Selves-era Octo Octa, the song sees Helang boldly challenging gender roles and norms in a way that feels mischievous.
