[LISTEN] Reviving Retro Grooves: Mia Moretti Refreshes Chicco's Classic 'I Need Some Money'

Connor Phillips | April 19, 2024

In a remarkable revival of Chicco's 1986 South African hit “I Need Some Money,” DJ and producer Mia Moretti introduces a vibrant, dancefloor-ready refresh of the anthem through Universal South Africa / Spaghetti Moretti Records.

Blending the infectious spirit of the original with her playful house groove, Moretti's rendition promises to captivate audiences, marking her dynamic evolution as both a touring force and a burgeoning producer.

Hot on the heels of her releasing DJ Minx's rework of her track “Piano de la Selva,” Mia Moretti ignites excitement with this latest single, a modern interpretation of Chicco's '80s classic. Embracing the track's iconic bubblegum boogie essence, Moretti infuses it with a contemporary dance beat, breathing new life into the timeless hit nearly four decades later.

Since establishing herself as a prominent figure in the DJ scene, Mia Moretti has ventured into production, launching her label, Spaghetti Moretti Records, and unveiling her debut EP TAMBOR, which garnered attention with remixes from esteemed artists like Malóne and KILIMANJARO.

With her Coachella debut at the DoLab stage last Sunday, and a dynamic performance at Goldenvoice Surf Club alongside industry heavyweights, Moretti is poised to elevate her project to new heights, reaffirming her status as a multifaceted artist shaping the future of dance music.
