French producer and DJ Stany is out with his debut single, “Only You”, featuring Nigerian luminary Rema and Atlanta rap icon Offset.
The song came equipped with a technicolor video featuring all three stars present. Ahead of the track’s release, Stany was cosigned by Platinum hit-maker DJ Khaled who narrated a prologue championing more creatives to emerge from behind the scenes and be spotlighted front and center for their contributions. With the release of “Only You”, Stany embarks on a bourgeoning journey infusing a blend of Afrobeats, house music, and his love for hip-hop to make the whole world dance.
Producer and DJ, Stany has rows of diamond and platinum plaques lined walls, but you wouldn’t know it. The French producer has worked behind the scenes with some of music’s biggest DJs and producers working on worldwide hits such as Justin Bieber’s “Let Me Love You”, J Balvin and Tyga’s “Loco Contigo”, and Selena Gomez, Cardi B and Ozuna’s “Taki Taki”. Stany got his start on Windows 95 and hesitantly wrote his first composition on HipHop eJay, before receiving his first turntables.
The beatmaker made his first mixtapes from there, dedicating one to the duo The Neptunes, and continued to spread his influence in the French music scene. He connected with hip-hop producer DJ Spank and electronic DJ Snake who together formed the collective FBI: French Beats International and worked the DJ scene in New York City. In 2015, DJ Snake tapped Stany to work on his albums which birthed some of the hits mentioned above. Since then he’s contributed to many projects all with a mission to get people to the dance floor. Returning to his home city of Paris last year, Stany decided it was high time to work on a solo debut that is inspired by house music and Afrobeats and started working on tracks that will incorporate some of music’s biggest names as guest features. Now signed to Polydor France/Geffen Records, Stany is ready to work his magic to make the whole world dance now under his own name.
