Martini’s Youngr is a truly a cross culture creation. The Brazilian DJ/producer/songwriter co-wrote the track with Jacobs who is from South Africa and recorded it in L.A. at West Lake Studios with American-born Timbaland. “I can’t describe the excitement and creative explosion that happens when I’m in the studio with Timbaland, Angelo Lopez and the team.” It all fits in with the international profile of Aftercluv, the Universal label which released Martini’s Hear Me Now (Alok, Bruno Martini feat Zeeba), Dancehall tracks like Charly Black’s Party Animal and worldwide Brazilian funk hits like Bum Bum, Tam Tam (Kondzilla).

“I’ve always been into fast cars and race cars,” says Martini. “Fiuk introduced me to the Drift car community in Sao Paulo and I was blown away. I thought the whole vibe and setting and edge of drifting fitted with the atmosphere I wanted to lay down on the Youngr video, so we actually filmed it at the Drift track where Fiuk and his crew do regular Drift racing competitions. I still need to learn alot about racing cars in this way, but I’m hooked! “
