Colombian DJ, producer, and composer Cato Anaya returns with a refined, sun-drenched release that bridges nostalgia and modern dance culture. Created in collaboration with Latin Dream and Grillo (LP), the track breathes new life into one of Latin America’s most iconic songs, translating its romantic core into a warm Caribbean house anthem built for today’s global dance floors.

“Una Chica” blends timeless Latin melodies with an old-school sense of romance, while embracing contemporary Afro House production. The result is a feel-good, nostalgic energy that feels familiar yet refreshed, rooted in classic Latin soundscapes but shaped to move seamlessly through modern club, festival, and open-air settings. It’s a record that invites both memory and motion, equally suited for Ibiza sunset sets and late-night dance floors.
Central to the project is the decision to honour the original’s soul. Latin Dream re-recorded the vocals specifically for this release, preserving the emotional essence while allowing space for reinterpretation. Cato Anaya’s production wraps those vocals in rich rhythm and subtle groove, balancing warmth and drive with restraint. The track feels effortless and immersive, carrying emotional weight without losing its dancefloor focus.
Cato Anaya has become one of the defining voices within the Latin–Afro House movement, known for fusing authentic Latin rhythms with refined electronic production. He first gained international attention with “La Cumbiambera,” released alongside Kryder on Spinnin’ Records, which surpassed three million streams and received widespread global DJ support. Since then, his sound has continued to evolve, consistently balancing cultural roots with contemporary club sensibilities.
With “Una Chica,” Cato Anaya, Latin Dream, and Grillo (LP) deliver a collaboration that feels both respectful and alive.
