Following the release of ‘Voices of Hope 2’, DJ Fresh (SA) re-unites with Shona SA to release their single ‘YOLO’ which brings us back into DJ Fresh’s nostalgic old-school house sound with a modern electronic twist.
The song is a party anthem that encourages one to live their best lives each day by celebrating the little things because you only have one life so why not do the most with the time you have. The lyrics are met with an amazing groove which is set to bring back the summer vibe that we have been waiting for, luckily for DJ’s there is a club mix too.
