Kristin Velvet brings ‘Build That Beat’ to Hot Creations for her first appearance on the label.
The Berlin and Ibiza-based DJ/producer lands on the imprint on 27th March 2026 with a two-track EP balancing hands-in-the-air energy with deeper club intensity.
Marking her first release on Hot Creations, Kristin Velvet continues her busy start to the year with ‘Build That Beat’, a two-track statement that reflects both her roots and her forward momentum. Title track ‘Build That Beat’ opens with crisp percussion, driving rhythms, and playful rhythmic hooks to create an uplifting, peak-time-ready groove, while on the flip, ‘This Is Our Time’ delves into later hours territory, combining garage-tinged bassline, punchy breaks, and pressure-filled textures with soulful vocals to showcase her versatility.
“Jamie’s been supporting my music for a long time, so it means a lot to release on Hot Creations. I wanted this release to reflect some of my hip hop and Chicago influences, but in a way that feels fresh. ‘Build That Beat’ is a straight-up hands-in-the-air groove, while ‘This Is Our Time’ goes deeper and darker. Really happy to be part of the label.” – Kristin Velvet.
Currently based between Berlin and Ibiza, Kristin Velvet continues to evolve as an artist whose influences and sound span the breadth of the house realm. Rooted in the spirit of ‘90s Chicago and Detroit, but continuously pushing things forward, her productions have earned support from the likes of Jimi Jules and Dixon to Seth Troxler, while also heading her Arms & Legs imprint, which she co-runs with Daniel Steinberg. Beyond the studio, Kristin has commanded stages worldwide, from a notable seven-year residency at Watergate Berlin to UNVRS Ibiza, D-Edge, Lollapalooza, Exit Festival, and more, proving to be both a formidable DJ and a curator of high-impact dancefloor moments.
Release date: March 27th, 2026.
