With a surge of high-impact Spotify playlist placements and more than 75,000 playlist listeners reached, Ernani Dale’s latest single “Feelin Like” is emerging as one of AudioWave Records’ strongest momentum drivers of the season.

The track has landed on high-follower playlists including:


  • AUTUMN SELECTION 2025

  • TOP HITS SELECTION 2025

  • FRIDAY NIGHT PARTY MIX

  • UK GARAGE SELECTIONS

  • New Dance 2025, Holiday Hits, and Deep House, So Deep, among others


In total, Feelin Like has accumulated placements across twelve key playlists, each contributing to sustained listener discovery and algorithmic relevance.


75,000+ Playlist Listeners: A Key Milestone


According to Songstats, Feelin Like recently passed the 75,000 playlist listeners benchmark — a meaningful indicator of early-stage traction that often precedes wider algorithmic support and increased save-rate behaviour.


This milestone signals:


  • Strong listener reception

  • High reactivity from niche and mid-tier curators

  • Excellent positioning for future editorial consideration

  • Increased likelihood of repeat playlisting in 2026 cycles


Cross-Genre Appeal Strengthens Industry Positioning


One of the defining strengths of Feelin Like is its ability to perform across multiple sub-genres:


  • House

  • Tech House

  • Deep House

  • Afro-influenced EDM

  • UK Garage / UKG crossover


This kind of genre-fluid appeal is increasingly valuable in an industry driven by hybrid playlists and data-driven curation. For promoters and DJs, Ernani’s versatility positions him as an adaptable, club-ready artist with a sound that works across different rooms, lineups, and audiences.


AudioWave Records: A Proven Discovery Engine


With AudioWave Records’ recent acclaim — including global recognition awards and association with Grammy-nominated works — Ernani’s momentum is now backed by one of the most rapidly rising independent labels in the scene.


AudioWave’s expanding influence across streaming platforms, combined with its data-driven approach to artist development, is creating a powerful ecosystem for releases like Feelin Like to grow organically while attracting industry attention.


Why “Feelin Like” Matters


For curators, promoters, and A&R analysts, Feelin Like represents:


  • A track with demonstrated playlist traction

  • A sound aligned with 2025–2026 underground and mainstream trends

  • An artist showing early indicators of scalability

  • Strong fit for clubs, pre-sets, livestreams, and event warm-ups


The performance of Feelin Like underscores Ernani Dale as a rising artist to monitor moving into 2026, with data-backed growth suggesting continued upward movement on streaming platforms and beyond.
