Franc Fala and Benja Unleash ‘La Luz’: One of Tulum’s Most-Wanted IDs
Amsterdam, May 16 - Following the global success of their 2024 viral smash ‘Yamore’, powerhouse duo Franc Fala and Benja reunite for another Afro House anthem. Their long-awaited single ‘La Luz’ is finally set for release on May 16. A sun-soaked house anthem that’s already captivated dance floors worldwide, ‘La Luz’ has become one of the most buzzed-about unreleased tracks of the scene, thanks to massive early DJ support and a wave of fan-shot footage circulating online.
A high-energy house anthem inspired by the classic ‘Apaga La Luz’, ‘La Luz’ already lit up dance floors worldwide months before its official release. The track has become a standout favorite from this year’s Tulum season, with heavyweight early support from Adriatique, Mau P, Francis Mercier, and Mahmut Orhan. With countless crowd-hyping clips circulating online, ‘La Luz’ quickly gained status as one of the most sought-after IDs in the scene.
For Franc Fala, the track is all about bottling up that unique energy: “‘La Luz’ feels like the spirit of those Tulum nights. Hypnotic, emotional, full of energy. We wanted to capture that magic in a track people could carry with them all summer.” Benja adds: “We knew from the first session this one had something special. It’s a track that just connects, you feel it immediately, whether you're in the club or watching the sunset.”
Both artists bring serious momentum into this release. Franc Fala currently boasts 5.2M monthly Spotify listeners, while Benja adds in 5.1M to a combined reach of over 10 million on Spotify only. Their last joint single ‘Yamore’ was a summer 2024 phenomenon, clocking over 123 million streams, hitting #1 on Spotify’s Global Daily Viral Songs, and topping the Viral 50 in 23 countries, including Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, and the UK. It also topped Apple Music charts in 6 countries and trended on Shazam in 52 countries. Franc Fala and Benja are bringing the heat to stages across Europe this summer – from Sziget to Ushuaïa – with two special back-to-back sets lined up at Loveland and Mysteryland.
Since ‘Yamore’, Franc Fala has kept the pressure on with standout collaborations including ‘Wait For You’ with AMÉMÉ and a recent link-up with SOMMERS (UK) on ‘5AM Jungle Jam’. Now, with ‘La Luz’, Franc Fala and Benja deliver the next essential track for summer 2025, primed for dance floors, sunsets, and sound systems across the globe.
‘La Luz’ is available now on all streaming platforms.
