Jack Wins takes on Billy Ocean’s ‘Caribbean Queen’ with new disco house beat

Always up for reviving an 80s classic, Dutch DJ/producer Jack Wins delivers his powerful new single “Queen.” Built on sweet 80’s melodies and a tasty dose of Billy Ocean’s signature smoothness, the record achieves next level funk with scooping basslines, flashy strings, and upwinding house beats. This is piping hot stuff, served up by one of the rising stars of contemporary house music – catch Jack Wins’ “Queen” now via Spinnin’ Records.  

Jack Wins is on the move. The Dutch DJ/producer has cemented himself as one of the brightest lights of the international electronic stage, delivering a slew of releases on labels like Spinnin’ Records, Selected, and Axtone.

Known for his uplifting house sound, often featuring funky basslines, lively samples and irresistible vocal cuts, Wins has continues to outdo himself with unique and unexpected gems. Last year, this culminated in his collab with Joe Stone, with whom he successfully chopped Madonna’s vocals for their hit record “Light Up My Life,” only to be approved by the ‘Queen of Pop’ herself.

As ever, he’s the king of the castle with this freshly gem, sure to get the royal treatment at every dance floor this summer.
