New Delhi DJ and producer Venky continues to rise through the global underground with Show Me
Love, a hi-NRG 2-track EP and his debut release for HE.SHE.THEY. Records, out the 21st of August.
Show Me Love follows a string of career-defining moments for Venky. His tribal-infused 2024
collaboration ‘Leleko’ with Janika Tenn climbed the Beatport charts, while recent track, ‘Keep It
Strong’ with Parallel Voices increased the heat with its deep, emotive groove. His 2021 cut
‘Clairevoyance’ on tastemaker imprint Dynamite Disco Club proved a turning point, cementing his
place in India’s blossoming underground revival.
Over the past few years, Venky has become one of India’s most trusted selectors, sharing booths with
Spencer Brown, Because of Art, Just Her, Bebetta and gracing the decks at venues across Delhi,
Goa, Bangalore and beyond. His remixes (including 2021’ take on Roger Sanchez’s ‘Lost’) have drawn
praise from heavyweights including Fatboy Slim, Benny Benassi, Catz 'N Dogz, Tita Lau, and Pretty
Pink - along with a guest feature on Sanchez’s Release Yourself radio show.
Rooted in the foundations of house and techno, Show Me Love marks a step into new sonic terrain
and captures the hi-NRG spirit that has made Venky a standout in India’s electronic scene. Driven by
crisp percussion, lush synths, and emotive vocal samples, the release reflects Venky’s growing
reputation for dancefloor heat with depth. With his finely tuned sense of tension, groove and
euphoric payoff, this is music made to move you - on summer rooftops, or late night city missions.
Opening and title track ‘Show Me Love’ sees Venky push into harder, experimental territory. Blending
cinematic strings with hard-edged synths and a stirring vocal hook, the track walks the line between
tough and tender, showcasing his evolution as both a producer and performer. ‘Live In The Moment’
expands the emotional palette. Built on sharp vocal chops and a deep, bouncing low-end, it’s a track
designed for connection - between friends, strangers, dancers. The EP also includes club-ready edits
of both tracks.
Venky says:
“This EP is a real departure from my usual style. I was experimenting with new sounds, trying to
recreate something I’d heard online, but it ended up evolving into something totally different. Each
track has its own unique vibe for different moments on the dancefloor, ‘Show Me Love’ brings fun,
dreamy summer energy, while ‘Live In The Moment’ is dirtier, groovier, and built for peak time.
They’re not your typical ‘Venky’ tracks at first listen, but they still carry the funky drums, catchy
vocals, and sweet melodies I always try to include.”
A regular presence at India’s underground clubs and festivals, Venky brings a sound that’s both
classic and cutting-edge, rooted in house and techno but driven by global influences and local heart.
With releases on 303lovers, Stealth Records, Simma Black already under his belt, and now
HE.SHE.THEY., Show Me Love is Venky entering a pivotal new chapter, one that bridges the energy of
India’s underground with the momentum of the international scene.
