Don Diablo, the multi-platinum Dutch producer known for pushing the boundaries of electronic music, has joined forces with GRAMMY Award-winning icon Nelly Furtado for their sizzling new single “Doing Nothin’,” out now via Casablanca Records.
A vibrant blend of ’90s piano house nostalgia and modern dancefloor flair, “Doing Nothin’” delivers the perfect soundtrack to summer escapism. Anchored by a classic four-on-the-floor groove and punctuated with playful percussion and feel-good melodies, the track radiates carefree energy. Nelly Furtado’s signature sass and charisma take center stage, delivering a flirtatious vocal performance that adds charm and humor to this upbeat anthem.
“Working with Nelly has been high on my wishlist for many years!” says Don Diablo. “She’s an absolute icon on so many levels – and now, she’s the voice on a record we crafted together to soundtrack this year’s summer. ‘Doing Nothin’’ brings back that ’90s piano house energy with a modern twist. It’s been a long time in the making, and we’re beyond excited to finally share it with the world.”
The song also pays homage to Furtado’s own discography, sampling elements from her 2013 track “Parking Lot.”
“I love when DJs dig in the crates from my catalog, find a gem they hear something special in, and make it new again years later,” shares Nelly Furtado. “This is the latest by Don Diablo, where he has taken my song from 2013 ‘Parking Lot’ and made it into a new song called ‘Doing Nothin’.’ Remix culture is one of my favorite cultures, for sure.”
Hot off a string of high-profile collaborations with artists such as MK, Jamiroquai, Robbie Williams, and Major Lazer, Don Diablo continues to prove his place at the forefront of global dance music innovation.
“Doing Nothin’” is available now on all streaming platforms. Get ready to hear it everywhere this summer.
