HERATIKS step into The Spotlight Mix

HERATIKS are on the Spotlight Mix this week, landing fresh from the release of ‘Hands Up High’ on dt weapons.

The duo return to the label with a proper hands-in-the-air club weapon. Big drums, a tight low end and a vocal hook that does exactly what it says on the tin. No messing about. This is tech house built for movement, with enough bass house bite to keep it rowdy when the room starts leaning forward.

That energy runs right through their Data Transmission Spotlight Mix.

HERATIKS describe their sound as “Bass Tech”, a high-octane blend of tech house, bass house and the odd splash of speed garage, depending on the crowd and the gig. This mix lands firmly in that lane. Rolling basslines, festival-sized moments, peak-time pressure and a few nods to artists they rate, including Raffi Habel, Cizzzla, Leblaeng and Lizzie Curious.

“We’re beyond stoked with how things are moving right now. Seeing ‘Hands Up High’ get signed and released for Summer 2026 was awesome, and seeing the feedback from absolute legends like Fatboy Slim and Roger Sanchez has been next-level, mindblown!

The last 18 months have been a complete whirlwind. To receive this level of industry recognition for the sound we’re building is incredibly humbling. Because of that, we wanted this Spotlight Mix for Data Transmission to be something special.”

The pair also make it clear what they look for in a track: does it make them want to dance, is the bassline naughty or different, and can they picture it doing damage on the dancefloor?

Speaking about the release and the mix, HERATIKS said:

That about sums this one up.

Across the tracklist, they weave in their own productions and remixes, including ‘Hands Up High’, ‘Drop Tha Spot’, their remix of ‘Read My Lips’, and the white label cut ‘Phat Bass’ with Chet Mega. It is a direct shot of where HERATIKS are at right now, loud, focused and aimed squarely at sweaty rooms and festival fields.

‘Hands Up High’ is out now on dt weapons.
