Z3LLA, the rising duo making waves in the U.S. dance scene, mark their highly anticipated debut on Dim Mak with the electrifying new single "Origami," a euphoric progressive house cut built for peak-time energy and emotional resonance.
Blending high-octane beats with Z3LLA's signature pop-forward vocal work, "Origami" positions the pair as both club-ready producers and evocative storytellers. The track unfurls like its namesake, intricate and deliberate, fusing luminous melodies with dark, pulsing undertones.
The song's cinematic feel is no accident. "Origami" pairs moody synth textures with soaring toplines, balancing the emotional charge of a heartbreak anthem with the hypnotic drive of a festival-ready banger. It reflects what the duo calls "the delicate folding and unfolding of human connection, beautiful, fragile, and complex."
In their own words, Z3LLA describes "Origami" as "a striking electronic track, layered with bright pop vocals that cut through its darker undertones, heightening both the tension and the energy. Built around captivating melodies, the song captures the irresistible feeling of envisioning a moment with someone you can't imagine living without — and bringing that vision vividly to life."
Signed to Steve Aoki's iconic Dim Mak imprint, Z3LLA is stepping into a larger spotlight—and it's well-deserved. The Los Angeles-based duo, made up of artists with roots in Brazil and Persia, has already secured a No. 1 on U.S. Dance Radio with their 2024 hit "Why Should I?", a track that also garnered over 10 million streams on major platforms, and landed in Mediabase's top 50 Dance tracks of the year. Their knack for blending catchy songwriting with cutting-edge production continues to build a devoted following.
Onstage, Z3LLA brings the same level of duality that defines their music: a mix of raw energy, sharp style, and magnetic presence. Their recent tour dates include major markets like New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Boston, and Washington, D.C., both as headliners and as support for artists like ILLENIUM, Gryffin, Loud Luxury, and Timmy Trumpet. Fans can expect even more from their live sets soon, as the duo hints at incorporating live vocals into future performances.

Z3LLA is more than just another act in the dance space. They're vocalists, DJs, and songwriters carving out their lane with intent and originality. With "Origami," they continue to show that their vision, influenced by their diverse cultural backgrounds and musical inspirations, is as layered and compelling as the art form their latest single is named after.
