DJ Snake is back at it, and this time, he’s reaching across generations.
Today, May 16, the global dance music heavyweight dropped his newest single, “Paradise”, a bold and soulful spin on Phil Collins’ 1989 classic, “Another Day in Paradise.”
With this release, DJ Snake breathes fresh life into the emotional original, transforming it into a lo-fi house anthem that’s just as fit for a chill late-night drive as it is for an afterparty in 2025.
Right from the opening notes, DJ Snake’s “Paradise” blends nostalgic textures with smooth, R&B-style vocals that capture the melancholic feel of Collins’ hit while giving it an unmistakable modern-day dancefloor touch. It’s got that lo-fi magic, warm synths, and a laid-back house groove that makes it instantly addictive. And yet, it still carries the weight and emotional depth of the original, a true nod to classic songwriting without sounding dated for a second.
This isn’t just a random release either. It follows DJ Snake’s massive sold-out show at Stade de France, where over 80,000 fans witnessed him tear up one of the biggest stages in the world. That moment was historic, not just for Snake’s career, but for dance music as a whole. To come off that high with something as low-key yet powerful as “Paradise” shows just how versatile he really is.
This track isn’t just a one-off either. It’s the first taste of what’s coming next: his new album, Nomad, set to drop later this year. If “Paradise” is any clue, Snake’s heading into more genre-blending, soul-tapping territory with this next era, and we’re here for it. His ability to fuse sounds from different decades and scenes has always been part of what makes him stand out. From global smashes like “Taki Taki” and “Turn Down for What” to deep cuts and experimental drops, DJ Snake knows how to move the masses and still surprise them.
But this track hits a little different. It’s chill, mature, and full of emotional pull, yet still undeniably a DJ Snake production. The beat’s smooth, the vocals wrap around you like a warm blanket, and the entire thing just feels… real. It’s like he’s giving us all a breather while still keeping the rhythm alive. It’s not about going harder, it’s about going deeper.
“Paradise” does more than just pay tribute to Phil Collins. It reintroduces a whole new generation to a timeless message, wrapping it in a sound that feels right for right now. In a world full of loud drops and endless hype, this track slows things down in the best way. And honestly, that’s exactly what makes it stand out.
Whether you’ve been riding with DJ Snake since day one or you’re just jumping into his discography now, this new single hits the sweet spot between innovation and nostalgia. It’s the kind of track that sticks with you, not just because of the melody, but because of the mood. It’s dance music with heart, and we don’t get that enough.
So yeah, DJ Snake just gave us a new “Paradise,” and honestly? It’s one we’ll be visiting a lot.
