Emotional and made for the dancefloor: Ammara & Noise Mafia release "More Than Friends"
- Colombian producer Noise Mafia and London-based DJ and producer Ammara have joined forces on their new single "More Than Friends", out now via CORE Records.
"More Than Friends" is a high-energy collision of Latin groove, euphoric rave power, and hard-edged club production that feels tailor-made for peak-time moments. It draws on the distinct strengths Ammara and Noise Mafia bring to the table. The result is one of the most charged club releases of the summer, channelling the kind of energy that defines both artists' live sets and places the single firmly in the tradition of records built to move a crowd.
"With More Than Friends, Noise Mafia brings his infectious Latin groove and bounce, while I lean into the euphoric energy and vocal elements. The combination gave the track a unique identity that feels both emotional and made for the dancefloor." - Ammara
Born and raised in Bogotá, Noise Mafia has developed a signature sound rooted in house, disco, and trance, pushed into harder, more urgent territory through a modern production approach. His work has earned support from Sara Landry, who featured his "Paper Planes" remix in a Boiler Room set, alongside I Hate Models, Brutalismus3000, Nico Moreno, Charlie Sparks, and Diplo. 2025 and 2026 have been among his most productive years, with releases including The Night We Met EP with the SESH collective, the summer-driven edit "SHAKE THAT (GET BUSY)", and a Powertrance outing alongside Vizionn. Proudly Colombian, he integrates Latin-American textures into his music as a natural creative extension while carrying a broader mission to widen the doors for other Latin artists on the global stage. To celebrate the release of "More Than Friends", Noise Mafia takes to the Atmosphere stage at Tomorrowland on July 25.
Born in the UK and raised in Spain, Ammara's path to electronic music ran through Cambridge drum-and-bass nights, a move to London, and a stint acting at Shakespeare's Globe before a pivotal Ibiza trip confirmed music as her true calling. Her releases span the 2020 breakthrough "Acid Fantasy", the Klubbheads-remixed "Honey Child" in 2023, and the 2025 single "Heart Sign" via WUGD, which has surpassed 3 million streams globally. Recent years have brought debut tours across the US and Australia, residency slots at Ibiza's Hï and Amnesia alongside Ben Hemsley, Kettama, and Hannah Laing, and a monthly Rinse FM residency.
With "More Than Friends", Ammara and Noise Mafia have created something that feels greater than the sum of its parts. The single is out now on all major platforms via CORE Records.
