Sofi Tukker – “Jacaré (Cat Dealers Remix)” single
“We are really honored to have this remix by some of our favorite Brazilian producers, Cat Dealers. They made one of our all-time favorite remixes to Vanessa Da Mata’s “Ai Ai Ai” and we’ve dreamed of having them do a remix for a while! This one is for the club.” – Sofi Tukker explained
With a combined reach of 10 million monthly listeners, Sofi Tukker and Cat Dealers will inspire a legion of fans to hit the dance floor this summer with their remix of “Jacaré.” The track emphasizes the song’s Latin flare with moving beats and intense drops while maintaining the song’s signature bassline.
SOFI TUKKER – “Jacaré” music video
“Since the beginning of our career, we have loved SOFI TUKKER’s work. Even though they aren’t Brazilian, they’re quite successful here with Sophie’s Portuguese vocals. We were very happy with the invitation to make this remix because we admire their music and love them both. We tried to bring a little of the Cat Dealers’ identity to the track. We are excited about this collaboration and hoping to see this song being played everywhere.” – Cat Dealers stated
Inspired by the country’s vibrant culture, “Jacaré” is laced with elements of electronic, house, and jazz influences, and penned as an ode to Brazil and its inherent sensuality. The lyrics were written by Sophie who is fluent in Portuguese, and longtime collaborator and Brazilian poet, Chacal. Also, a celebration of women and the LGBTQ+ community, “Jacaré” is a joyful earworm that further cements SOFI TUKKER’s trademark, distinctive danceable sound, and has amassed upwards of 10 million streams.
