aespa's Hit Single 'Spicy' Remixed By Nitepunk

ScreaM Records--the dance music label from major Korean music platform SM Entertainment--announces the release of iScreaM Vol. 26: Spicy (Nitepunk Remix).  For the latest installment of their bolstering remix series, iScreaM taps US-based DJ and producer Nitepunk to remix “Spicy” from one of the most exciting girl groups to grace the charts right now aespa.  

Available now on all platforms, “Spicy (Nitepunk Remix)” is a warehouse rave style track with a lively sampling of aespa members’ vocals on top of a combined beat of breakbeat, house, and trap genres. The track is recreated into a futuristic, dystopian atmosphere, evoking an imagination of “What if aespa, who came back to the real world, stayed at KWANGYA?”

The original version of “Spicy” --with over 66 million streams on Spotify–appears on aespa’s third mini-album MY WORLD.  It showcases every side of the collective and finds aespa firing on all cylinders. Nitepunk’s hard-hitting take carries them between disciplines and to new dance floors.
