Afro house innovator AMÉMÉ brings his distinctive sound to AZZUR’s standout hit “Me Gusta”, joining Birds of Mind and Nick Morgan in a three-track remix package. The release sees AMÉMÉ transforming the original into a powerful club weapon, infusing his signature blend of African rhythms and contemporary house elements while preserving the track’s captivating vocal hooks, delivering a unique dancefloor interpretation of the original collaboration between label founders Meloko, Baron, Selim Sivade, and Konvex.
AMÉMÉ’s remarkable momentum continues following his recent high-profile collaboration with fellow Benin-born legend Angelique Kidjo. 2024 saw him deliver standout releases on Black Book Records, Realm Records, and Defected Records’ afro-house imprint One People.
AMÉMÉ’s influence extends beyond the studio through his signature One Tribe event series, which has expanded globally last year. After relaunching at London’s Fabric, the series has secured a quarterly residency at Amsterdam’s Shelter, returned home to Brooklyn’s House of Yes, and touched down in Ibiza and Egypt. This momentum has earned him a coveted return booking to Coachella for 2025, further cementing his position as a leading force in electronic music’s new wave.
The “Me Gusta” remix package showcases AZZUR’s commitment to emotional, melodic dancefloor music while highlighting AMÉMÉ’s ability to bridge cultural and generational gaps through electronic music.

About AMÉMÉ
Fueled by an innate determination, drive and passion, with attuned intuition applied to both his music and life, West African native AMÉMÉ channels his cultural roots and ancestry into everything he does. Born and raised in Benin, AMÉMÉ (Hubert Sodogandji) helms One Tribe, a global community and brand identity centred on unity and a positive outlook. His visionary capabilities and unwavering dedication have been the catalyst behind the rapid growth and proliferation of both his musical endeavours and One Tribe as a whole.
Specialising in Afro-leaning electronic music, with flourishes of tribal percussion and spiritual vocals built upon a foundation of contemporary deep house and tech, AMÉMÉ’s DJ sets are eclectic, energetic and nourishing for the soul. In the studio he is equally dynamic and adept, seeing releases via his One Tribe label finding their way to Black Coffee, who supported the music in Tulum back in 2019. With such an influential figure backing his productions, it was inevitable that AMÉMÉ’s name would soon be ringing in the ears of other key tastemakers. Over the past few years he’s seen his music signed to Watergate Records, Blond:Ish’s Abracadabra imprint and the mighty MoBlack Records all bringing the West African wonder on board. Recently he was drafted in to remix fellow African artist Omah Lay’s song ‘Understand’ for Sire Records (Warner).
Furthering his momentum, AMÉMÉ has consistently continued to demonstrate his prowess as a selector, touring the globe to spin in global epicentres for electronic music; Ibiza, Miami, Berlin, New York, Paris, Mykonos and Tulum, through to events like Burning Man, where his tribal rhythms, spiritually-enriching vocals and life affirming melodies were right at home. Poised for the next evolutionary phase of his burgeoning career, AMÉMÉ remains grounded, humble and full of wisdom, exuding positivity every step of the way. His empire continues to grow in tandem with his profile, demonstrating that true talent rises to the top. His sincere and humble determination places music and community at the forefront of his actions, with positive intent behind every new shift and evolution.
From Benin to Brooklyn to Berlin, his worldly outlook and unrelenting drive fuel a gleaming trajectory; which will see AMÉMÉ hosting his own percussion-fueled rituals on dance floors across the world for many years to come – uniting the global community and reminding us that we are all One Tribe.
