Cloonee Reconnects With His Latin House Roots On Movimiento

3 minutes read

UK-born, Los Angeles-based DJ and producer Cloonee is returning to the Latin-house influences that helped shape his rise with “Movimiento,” a seductive collaboration with Yandel and Atlac. Serving as the final preview of Cloonee’s highly anticipated debut album, Are You Still You?, the track brings together a familiar vocal, infectious club production and the playful energy that has become a defining part of his sound.

“Movimiento” reimagines the iconic “Sexy Movimiento,” transforming its recognizable vocal into a cheeky, body-moving club record. Rolling bass, infectious percussion and a late-night groove give the track its foundation, while Cloonee adds the swagger and sense of fun that have become staples of his DJ sets.

The track has already become a fixture in those sets, with Cloonee testing it in front of crowds well before its official release. That early exposure has translated online as well, with “Movimiento” generating nearly 3,000 social media creations ahead of its release.

There is a straightforward physicality to the record. It is flirtatious, energetic and designed around the kind of groove that makes standing still increasingly difficult. At the same time, it represents something of a return for Cloonee, reconnecting with the Latin-house sound that played a role in his emergence while presenting it through the more confident production style he has developed since.

That evolution comes into sharper focus with Are You Still You?, which arrives October 6 as Cloonee’s debut album. The project represents a significant milestone in a career that has taken him from underground clubs to some of the biggest stages in dance music.

Rather than simply extending the formula behind his club records, the album explores a broader creative vision while maintaining the infectious energy that has defined Cloonee’s productions. The project has already been introduced through “Good Girl,” “Get Up and Dance” and “Back of the Club,” with “Good Girl” collecting 1.5 million streams during its first week.

Together, the singles have offered glimpses into the different sides of the forthcoming album, with “Movimiento” now providing the final piece of the rollout before the full project arrives.

The release caps an especially busy period for Cloonee, whose profile has continued to expand across both sides of the Atlantic. Following sold-out headline shows throughout North America and Europe, he has delivered standout performances at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, EDC Las Vegas and Bonnaroo, while continuing to develop his Hellbent Records imprint.

His momentum has also extended beyond the underground house scene. His collaboration with Prospa, “Free Your Mind,” has continued its climb on the UK Official Singles Chart, reaching No. 10 while generating more than one million Spotify streams per day.

That combination of club credibility and growing mainstream reach has placed Cloonee at an important point in his career. “Movimiento” looks back toward one of the sounds that helped establish his identity, while Are You Still You? points toward where he is taking it next.

With Yandel and Atlac alongside him, Cloonee closes out the album campaign with a track built for movement, connection and late-night energy — a fitting final preview before Are You Still You? officially opens the next chapter of his career on October 6.
