Track Review: DeeJay Pico – Shimmy (feat. Lexi)

If you’ve been sleeping on DeeJay Pico, Shimmy is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed. The Italian-born, Dubai-and-Riga-based producer has been steadily building a name for himself across the underground and festival scenes for years, and with this latest drop, he’s clearly not here to play it safe.

Shimmy is one of those tracks that hits you in layers. On the surface, it’s got that infectious, tribal house groove that immediately makes your shoulders start moving. But the more you sit with it—or better yet, dance to it—the more you catch the little details: crisp percussion, subtle synth swells, and those hypnotic rhythms that keep building, pulling you deeper into the vibe.

DeeJay Pico’s been DJing since he was basically a kid, and that experience shows. Shimmy doesn’t sound like someone chasing trends—it sounds like someone who is the trend. The production is sharp, clean, and globally influenced, with just enough grit to keep it interesting. There’s this Mediterranean flavor running underneath everything—probably Pico’s Italian roots shining through—but it’s blended with a very international, modern club feel.

Then there’s Lexi. She brings this cool, effortless energy that balances perfectly with the tribal percussion underneath. It’s got this sensual, slightly mysterious vibe. The hook is catchy without being cheesy, making it perfect for festival crowds and late-night radio sets alike.

But what really makes Shimmy special is the energy. It’s not aggressive; it’s persistent. The beat doesn’t rush—you ride it. It’s the kind of track DJs love to drop right when the crowd’s starting to lose themselves, somewhere between sunset and sunrise, when the real party starts.

And honestly, that makes sense for DeeJay Pico. He’s not just a producer; he’s a storyteller with his music. Whether it’s yacht parties in Dubai, underground sets in Ibiza, or headline gigs in the Baltics, Pico knows how to move a crowd, and Shimmy feels like the perfect blend of his experiences on dancefloors around the world.

This one’s got legs—not just a quick chart climber, but a song you’ll catch on playlists months from now. Expect to hear it on international club circuits, workout mixes, or your friend’s pool party playlist before summer’s over.

To sum things up

DeeJay Pico’s Shimmy is slick, confident, and made for movement. It’s tribal house with taste—festival-ready but still intimate enough for smaller, deeper DJ sets. And with Lexi’s smooth vocals riding shotgun, this one’s definitely worth adding to your rotation.

Stream it. Play it loud. And yeah—go ahead and shimmy.
