Rising producer Roddy Lima steps into 2026 with serious momentum, unveiling his new single “LICK IT,” a high-impact collaboration with in-demand vocalist and songwriter Sarah de Warren, out now via Insomniac Records. Built for peak-time energy and late-night club tension, the track lands as a defining moment for both artists as their profiles continue to surge across the global dance scene.
At its core, “LICK IT” is a driving tech house cut that balances grit with sleek control. Roddy Lima’s groove-forward production lays down a pulsing foundation, while Sarah de Warren delivers commanding, sultry vocals that cut straight through the mix. The pairing feels intentional and potent, designed for dark rooms, strobe-lit drops, and packed dancefloors locked into the same rhythm. Fans have been waiting for the release ever since Roddy began teasing it during recent sets, including standout appearances at Splash House and the Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles, where early plays quickly turned the track into a word-of-mouth favorite.
Its home on Insomniac Records further signals the scale of the release. As the label arm of Insomniac, one of the most influential forces in global electronic music culture, the imprint has become known for spotlighting records that bridge underground credibility with festival-sized impact. “LICK IT” sits comfortably in that space, connecting club-focused production with the kind of vocal presence that travels far beyond a single scene.
For Roddy Lima, the single continues a rapid rise that has carried him from producing in São Paulo bedrooms to commanding international stages. Recent years have seen him light up dancefloors at Club Space Miami and Hï Ibiza, while earning support from heavyweights like FISHER, John Summit, Anyma, and PAWSA. Releases on tastemaker labels including Repopulate Mars, Experts Only, and Black Book Records have climbed the Beatport charts and become reliable weapons in DJ sets worldwide, establishing his sound as both raw and undeniably effective.
That upward trajectory shows no signs of slowing. Following a breakout run that included a #1 on the Beatport Techno Chart, support from Pete Tong on BBC Radio 1, and sold-out headline dates across North America, Roddy Lima heads into 2026 with a packed international tour schedule spanning major festivals and key club markets. “LICK IT” feels like a natural extension of that momentum — sharper, bolder, and built for bigger rooms.
Sarah de Warren enters the collaboration with her own wave of success. Over the past year, she has delivered a string of genre-defining releases that have dominated Beatport and US dance radio, all while maintaining a relentless touring schedule across four continents. Her collaboration with Layton Giordani, “Act Of God,” ranked #3 in Sirius XM’s Top 52 of 2025 for airplay, with support from artists like John Summit and Miss Monique, who championed the Camelphat remix in their sets. With multiple Beatport number ones, several Top 10 records, and her first 2026 release “On A Trip” debuting at #1, she continues to establish herself as one of electronic music’s most recognizable voices.
Together, Roddy Lima and Sarah de Warren strike a balance of attitude and precision on “LICK IT,” delivering a record that feels purpose-built for the current moment in dance music. It’s a statement release that underscores Roddy’s transition into larger stages and global audiences, while reinforcing Sarah’s reputation for vocals that don’t just ride a beat, but define it.
