Single: DIGITiSE (feat. Pat Alvarez)

HAAi has released the new album 'DIGITiSE' on Mute – ten tracks and the club-ready counterpart to 2025's 'HUMANiSE'. Guests include Pat Alvarez on the title track, Echonomist on 'Ignition', James Massiah on 'I Wanna Feel Like Someone' and Skybreak with the Medellín children's choir Cantoalegre on 'Talking Walls'.

Clash's Nick Roseblade (8/10) praises a wider palette, more punch and more playfulness: the album opens with quirky pieces such as 'Printerlude' and builds in its second half into a run of driving club tracks like 'HUMANiSE Radio' and 'THANK U'. musicOMH's Ben Hogwood (4/5) describes a louder, ravier record about community and human connection in a technological age. PopMatters' Paul Carr (9/10) hears a celebration of club life and the joy of dancing with a crowd.

The video is the official visualiser for the single 'DIGITiSE' featuring Pat Alvarez, from HAAi's YouTube channel.
