Australian DJ, Havana Brown always planned on being a singer, has just dropped a new video for the remix of her sizzling debut club-pop single, "We Run The Night," featuring a guest vocal appearance by rapper Pitbull. The original version was a huge hit when it was released last year. Now the remixed track is repeating history, having already reached the number one place on the Hot Dance Club Songs Chart in the US. The pair back up their claim by owning the dance club in the new video.The quite catchy autotune is an ultra-ferocious club banger built around a universally appealing hook, and it saves this femme fatale from what would otherwise be a disastrous release. "We Run The Night" is as epic as it is euphoric, with an insanely infectious breakdown that's guaranteed to throw the crowd into overdrive, and the track is the perfect introduction to the talents and tastes of Brown. The dance-club beat, the lyrics, the flashing lights, and of course the brilliance of Pitbull, combine together producing one club-ready "must have."
"It's created for both the clubs and the radio," Brown reveals. "That was really important for me and it was very difficult to pull off. As for the track, it's about how music makes me feel." Brown says her vast experience as a DJ playing other people's tunes has also had a huge impact on how she approaches her own. After working the club circuit for three years, Brown became the first female DJ in Australia to sign a major label record deal with Universal Music in 2008, released her first mix CD, "Crave," and topped the year off opening for the Pussycat Dolls on their promo tour.
Directed by Benn Jae with Tony Prescott and shot in Miami, the video begins at a private party where young people, elegantly dressed, are moving in time with the music. The beat begins, the music starts, and with Pitbull introducing the song, all the excitement commences. Brown now begins to do what she does best: she sings, she moves, she looks into your soul. It is no wonder that dance floors overflow when these two team up. Together they exude pizzazz. The clip shows off this special excitement as these two world class DJs do their stuff. Brown even shows off her mixer-desk skills sliding the controls while singing.
