David Ramano is causing waves once more, and this time it’s through the release of his highly anticipated single ‘Un Día’ on his first label, Omkara.
The London-born now Dubai-residing DJ and producer has made a name for himself as a pioneer for pushing Afro and Melodic House to new levels, and now with Omkara’s second release being released on August 22, 2025, he’s solidifying himself as one of the most promising new talents in the global electronic music sphere.
Fans who’ve seen Ramano’s recent Ibiza sets already had a preview of ‘Un Día’ when he initially played the record at Ibiza institutions like Café del Mar and warmed up for house legend Todd Terry. The reaction was immediate, dancers across the globe vibed with its union of Afro Melodic rhythm and Balearic soul. Combining sun-drenched grooves, otherworldly vocals, and silky, timeless gloss, it is like the ultimate sunset soundtrack.
Ramano sees Omkara not just as a tag but as a platform for the creator and a canvas for genuity. Having begun with his debut release ‘The Light I Hold,’ the agenda of the label is clear: propel Afro and Melodic House to new spheres, nourish new talent, and create music that transcends cultures. In his own words, “Un Día is a special track written with summer dancefloors in mind.”. It’s great to see it taking off and finding its way into the bags of some of the world’s largest DJs.”
Omkara encapsulates David Ramano’s broader vision. The brand is dedicated to evolving groundbreaking soundscapes, merging house and techno heritage with African, Latin, and Eastern percussive traditions. The result is a colorful, genre-pushing blend where the past meets the future. Ramano says Omkara’s ambition is to be a hub of immersive sonic experiences, from events to collaborations across borders.
Having grown up in London’s multicultural music scene, Ramano’s existence has been one of sharing history through sound. His early days in the 1990s pirate radio scene influenced his affinity for soul harmonies and emotional material. With Deepologists, he honed an engaging style that captures movement and feeling. He’s taken it to UK, Spanish, Swedish, and Canadian stages throughout the years and gotten support from big-name players CamelPhat, Cosmic Gate, and Atalaia.
Ramano’s biggest streaming hits include one of his biggest, ‘Fall’, which sees his Afro-percussive style meet emotional melodies. The track has accumulated more than 300,000 Spotify streams and found itself on Afro House playlists with support from CamelPhat. All told, Ramano’s tracks have accumulated more than 750,000 streams on major platforms and has cemented his growing reputation in the global dance scene.
His previous EP, ‘The Journey of Love’, had revealed more of his filmic and spiritual side. It peaked at number two on Switzerland’s iTunes Dance Albums chart, whilst his work for labels such as When Stars Align, Electric Eden Records, and EarthVox has proved his capabilities at Afro House, melodic techno, and spiritual grooves. With every production, his international following increases and his influence on the contemporary electronic scene is consolidated.
Now, Omkara is becoming the center stage of his career. Founded in 2025, the label is not just a boutique label, it’s an innovative team of pioneers set to drive the evolution of Afro and Melodic House. With tracks like ‘Un Día’, Omkara is quickly becoming a hotspot for fans looking for music that goes beyond the mainstream, offering deeper, more authentic rhythms that vibe through cultures.

With the traction building, the track is set to light up summer playlists and dancefloors across the world. To Ramano, the single is not just a release but a statement that Omkara has come to stay.
