A.C.N. is back with an invigorating Afro House remix of The Calling by Noluh feat. The Mambo Project, out now via Izzit Records. With two expertly crafted versions—the Radio Edit and Full Mix—this remix promises to dominate dancefloors worldwide.

Known for his impressive catalog spanning labels like MoBlack Records, Wired Music, and Bayaka Records, A.C.N. has solidified his name in the Afro House scene. His tracks are championed by top-tier artists, including Black Coffee, Adana Twins, and Swedish House Mafia, showcasing his ability to blend unique textures with crowd-pleasing grooves. In this remix of The Calling, he builds on the strong foundation provided by Noluh’s soulful and emotive vocals, which captivated him instantly upon hearing the original track.

The remix also honors The Mambo Project’s seamless fusion of Afro House and Amapiano, a unique style that gives The Calling its distinctive vibe. A.C.N. takes this foundation and elevates it with his signature touch: vibrant beats, a dynamic arpeggio riff, and an atmosphere that grows more euphoric with each bar. The result is a remix that’s not only true to its roots but also fresh and tailored for energetic dancefloor moments.

“I was thrilled to work on this remix,” says A.C.N. “Noluh’s vocal performance is incredible, and The Mambo Project’s arrangement is so innovative. I wanted to create something uplifting, a contrast to my previous remix of Bathethelele, which leaned more commercial. This time, I went for a vibrant, high-energy track that builds with intensity.”

From its soulful beginnings to its high-energy peaks, The Calling (A.C.N. Remix) is a journey through Afro House at its finest. Whether in a packed club or your personal playlist, it’s designed to inspire movement and emotion alike. With A.C.N.’s rising prominence across Beatport and Traxsource, and a growing list of international accolades, this remix cements his place as a leading force in Afro House.
