Oye Manita Chart: Haxhia maps his sound with Black Lizard Records at the core
Haxhia's Beatport chart reads like a personal manifesto — ten tracks that trace a coherent arc from heavyweight bass house to hypnotic tech house, with occasional melodic detours that add emotional depth to the selection. This is not a random playlist, but an editorial snapshot of where the European dance floor stands right now.
Black Lizard Records serves as the chart's backbone, claiming five of ten tracks and consolidating its position as one of the most active mid-tier labels in the house and bass house ecosystem. Alongside Toolroom, Catch & Release and Whoyostro Black, the selection spans labels with distinct sonic identities and complementary aesthetics.
Standout tracks
- Oye Manita (Original Mix) – Leandro Da Silva & Haxhia: The chart's namesake sets the tone immediately — 128 BPM in E Major, thick bass house with a Latin vocal hook that turns it into a peak-hour weapon of choice.
- Let's Jack (Extended Mix) – Piero Pirupa: The Italian veteran pushes to 132 BPM with surgically precise tech house in G Major. Released on Catch & Release, this is impeccably structured club architecture and a reminder of why Pirupa remains a benchmark.
- A Sunset In San Francisco (Extended Mix) – Crusy: The chart's emotional centrepiece. Toolroom hosts this 127 BPM melodic house track in G Minor that, across six minutes and twenty seconds, builds a cinematic, nostalgic atmosphere ideal for late-night transitions.
- No Control (Original Mix) – Leo Oliver: The only melodic house & techno entry provides an introspective counterpoint. 132 BPM in Eb Major with a tension that unfolds gracefully on Leonidas Records.
- Fuego (Original Mix) – Deaf Jules: Bass house at 128 BPM in Ab Major that delivers exactly what the title promises — sustained energy and loaded low-end to keep the floor locked in.
Haxhia's chart functions like a tightly edited set: it has its own rhythm, tonal coherence, and a curation that balances the punch of bass house with moments of greater harmonic density. Essential listening for DJs looking for quality-tested material ahead of their next sessions.
