DRAMA is a fast-rising Chicago-based duo comprised of vocalist Via Rosa and producer Na'el Shehade. Both accomplished solo musicians in their own right before joining forces and launching DRAMA, their loose, vibrant, and infectious mixture of R&B and dance music was first displayed in 2016 on their self-released debut album Gallows. The success of the album and its subsequent self-released EPs and singles led to their recent signing with revered Michigan-based label Ghostly International Records, who released their new album titled Dance Without Me earlier this year on Valentine's Day. Their exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight In A Perfect World finds a sultry and seductive intersection between house, disco, R&B, and synth-pop as it features a couple songs off their brand new album that slide in effortlessly alongside infectious dancefloor cuts by The xx, Nicolas Jaar, Channel Tres, Robyn, Daft Punk, The Black Madonna, and more.
