Don Diablo Joins Forces With Lufthaus (Robbie Williams, Flynn Francis & Tim Metcalfe) And Sofiya Nzau For Debut Collaboration: ‘Where Do We Come From’

Multifaceted trailblazer Don Diablo releases his first-ever single with powerhouse trio Lufthaus, ‘Where Do We Come From’.

The star-studded collaboration, which features the signature vocals of Robbie Williams and Kenyan singer Sofiya Nzau, is out today on Armada Music and Hexagon.

A unique Afro-inspired track harboring a deeply emotional twist and a powerful message to the world, Don Diablo, Lufthaus and Sofiya Nzau’s ‘Where Do We Come From’ is a testament to the power of global creativity. Both nostalgic and forward-thinking, it honors the burgeoning Afro house movement while incorporating the renowned futuristic sound design Don Diablo is known for.

The single arrives hot on the heels of great success for all collaborators. While Don Diablo has been stacking collaborations with artists such as Major Lazer, Nelly Furtado and K-Pop mega stars Ateez, Lufthaus are at the crest of the wave following the launch of — and the international acclaim for —their debut album titled ‘Visions, Vol. 1’, fully establishing themselves within the genre’s landscape just ahead of their debut performance at Creamfields U.K. Meanwhile, Sofiya Nzau’s recent hit ‘Mwaki’ (with Zerb) continues to dominate global radio charts.

“Working on an Afro house inspired record with Lufthaus wasn’t exactly on my bingo card for this year but following on from a number of passionate conversations with Robbie, then Sofiya, I am happy everyone was on board with my vision from the start,” says Don Diablo. “The secret sauce for this record is Sofiya, who really put everything in the right place for the song. It’s safe to say I am super hyped to finally have this record out there. It holds a very special place in my heart.”

“It was an amazing experience to work together with Don on this record,” Lufthaus adds. “We were impressed by his vision and drive as well as his creativity. Super excited to finally release this huge collaboration, complemented by the unique vocal talent of Sofiya, to the world!”

‘Where Do We Come From’ is a technicolor explosion of sound, blending Don Diablo’s innovative production techniques with Lufthaus’ dynamic style and Sofiya’s unique vocal skill set. This track promises to captivate a global audience of (future) fans and is poised to be this year’s summer anthem.

Don Diablo & Lufthaus feat. Sofiya Nzau – Where Do We Come From is available now via Armada Music and Hexagon.

Lyrics:
Tell them I am going back
To where I came from
(To where I came from)
Where do we come from
(Where do we come from)
(Where do we come from)

Ríu ndire kíndú
Na ndire mwene
Riú ní ndore naku
Na ndire mwene
Riú gúinúka kú
Gúinúka kú
Riú gúinúka kú
Gúinúka kú

Mathe Duke ogue
Ngue nguo ciakwa
Nanie ngue ciana
Giuke úké
Riu gúimúka kú
Guinúka kú
Riú gúinúka kú
Gúinúka kú

I'd love to reveal
Some universal truth
I have just a feeling
And feelings aren't proof
But when they lay my body down
And ask where I belong
Tell them I am going back
Where I came from

Where do we come from
Where do we come from

Ríu ndire kíndú
Na ndire mwene
Riú ní ndore naku
Na ndire mwene
Riú gúinúka kú
Gúinúka kú
Riú gúinúka kú
Gúinúka kú

Oh I can't be the only one
That feels like they don't belong
That feels like there's something wrong but plays along
Oh the loud getting louder
We turn pain into power
Cos now is the hour
It's ours

Ríu ndire kíndú
Na ndire mwene
Riú ní ndore naku
Na ndire mwene
Riú gúinúka kú
Gúinúka kú
Riú gúinúka kú
Gúinúka kú

Mathe Duke ogue
Ngue nguo ciakwa
Nanie ngue ciana
Giuke úké
Riu gúimúka kú
Guinúka kú
Riu gúimúka kú
Guinúka kú
