Tita Lau releases her first single of 2026, ‘Freaky’, a sample-based dancefloor record built around the iconic Jodeci vocal and her own signature production style.

Tita Lau steps into 2026 with her first release of the year, ‘Freaky’, arriving off the back of a month-long tour across Asia and the success of her collaboration with James Hype on ‘More Of The Same’, which has now surpassed one million streams. The new single marks a notable moment in her discography as her first ever sample-based record, drawing on the iconic Jodeci vocal from Freakn’ You and pairing it with her own signature vocals and precision dancefloor production.

Breaking Down the Sound of Freaky

Freaky is built for the dancefloor from the ground up. The track centres on a throbbing off-beat bass and thumping percussion, with infectious melodic leads weaving around the Jodeci sample throughout. Tita has added her own vocals to the record, sitting alongside the original in a way that feels personal rather than simply functional. The production draws influence from drum-heavy techno grooves while retaining the soulful, emotive qualities that have long defined her approach to house music. The result is a track that bridges the raw energy of the club with the emotional pull of a vocal that has resonated with audiences for decades.

Speaking about the release, Tita said: “I grew up on the iconic original and always wanted to put my signature on it to play in my sets. It always goes off.”

Tita Lau’s 2025-2026 Momentum

The release of Freaky follows a particularly strong stretch for Tita Lau. Her collaboration with James Hype, More Of The Same, broke through the one million streams mark and introduced her to a significantly wider audience ahead of her Asia tour. That run of dates across the continent further cemented her reputation as a consistently high-energy live performer, with the momentum from both carrying directly into this new chapter of her 2026 output. With Freaky now out, it signals the beginning of what looks set to be a busy and musically adventurous year.
