Do Not Sleep Welcomes Ashoju with the High-Impact Shake Your Body EP
Two bold, functional cuts mark a new chapter for the London-based artist, ahead of his Soundground relaunch and party series in 2025.

Do Not Sleep, one of Ibiza’s most iconic party brands, introduces Ashoju to its label with the explosive Shake Your Body EP. Known for his evolving sound and rising profile, Ashoju pairs this release with exciting moves for 2025, including the relaunch of his Soundground Records imprint, a new party series, and a regular slot on Bloop Radio.
The EP wastes no time in setting the tone. Title track “Shake Your Body” hits with stripped-back drums, a thick bass groove, and attitude-filled vocal chops — minimal yet potent, delivering the raw Do Not Sleep energy built for long nights on the floor. On the flip, “Get Ready” ups the intensity with chunky percussion, heavy low-end, and sharp vocal stabs. The result is peak-time power, perfectly engineered for DJs to keep crowds moving.
Behind the Ashoju moniker is Northern-born, London-based artist Josh Newsham, whose productions have landed on Circus Recordings, FourThirtyTwo, OfUnsoundMind, and Reptile Dysfunction. His tracks have gained heavyweight support from The Martinez Brothers, Jamie Jones, Marco Carola, Richie Hawtin, Diplo, Claude VonStroke, and Groove Armada, with appearances stretching from Ultra Miami to Glastonbury, Amnesia to Studio 338, and Resistance to Warehouse Project.
With Shake Your Body EP, Ashoju cements his momentum and gives a no-brakes snapshot of where he’s headed next.
