French Afro House producer and DJ ARTO has released “KUYA,” a vibrant track that opens his latest album with an energetic fusion of traditional African elements and contemporary club production. The single exemplifies ARTO’s signature approach of blending tribal chants, hand-played percussion, and African guitars with crisp, modern house techniques.

“KUYA” demonstrates ARTO’s ability to create what he calls “organic Afro House” — music rooted in pan-African rhythms that translates from big sound systems to editorial playlists. The track features layered drums, call-and-response vocals, and guitar-led motifs that build into high-impact drops designed for peak club moments.

ARTO’s production style centers on tactile, cinematic textures that combine choral elements with clean, dynamic mixing. His approach favors hand-played instruments over samples, creating hypnotic builds and explosive drops that work equally well in intimate settings and festival main stages.

As a DJ, ARTO moves fluidly between deep organic grooves and peak-time Afro Tech, crafting sets built on tension, release, and evolving percussion patterns. This dual perspective as both producer and performer informs his studio work, ensuring tracks like “KUYA” are purpose-built for dance floor impact.

“KUYA” is now available on all major streaming platforms.
