French DJ David Guetta Shows Huge Interest In Amapiano With His ‘Ameno Amapiano’ Remix. About two years ago, the streets and the airwaves agreed that Amapino had transitioned from the underground, taken over mainstream broadcast, created household names and become the definitive sound for this era in South African music. In the short time since younger producers and DJs, mostly new to the industry have been moulding the future of the Amapiano sound and gaining recognition for it.

It was produced by Nektunez, Ghanaian star and was joined for vocals by Nigerian producer Goya Menor.
‘Ameno Amapiano’ Remix by David Guetta was released on 29th of April 2022 by Sony Music Entertainment. This remix comes as no surprise, since David Guetta’s musical projects have varied and have been through many music genres, involving mainstream pop collaborations and remixing tracks from Coldplay, BTS, Avicii and many others.

In Christmas of 2021 this viral hit was one of the most played songs on the African continent, and has reached global success by debuting number 10 on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales charts in the same month. The track received admiration by top Nigerian producers and has been boosted into global success by many dancers who have used the sound for their choreographies on Tik Tok.
