Defected Records has dropped one of this summer’s biggest releases: CamelPhat & Elderbrook – Cola (ARTBAT Remix). Out now (8th August 2025), the track has already stormed into the Beatport Top 10 and continues to climb.
A Classic Reborn
Originally released in 2017, Cola became a global phenomenon, topping dance charts, dominating club playlists, and earning a GRAMMY nomination for Best Dance Recording. It was a defining moment in UK club culture, and its hypnotic vocal hook by Elderbrook remains instantly recognisable.
Now, Ukrainian duo ARTBAT have brought their main stage energy to the track, giving it a fresh, high-impact twist while keeping the soul of the original intact. Elderbrook’s vocal still takes centre stage, but the production now features ARTBAT’s signature build-and-release tension designed to ignite festival crowds.

From Friends to Collaborators
ARTBAT’s connection with CamelPhat goes back years — they previously joined forces on the 2020 hit For A Feeling and remixed Hypercolour. Speaking about the new release, ARTBAT said:
“We are friends with CamelPhat and love their music. Cola is a classic. This summer, we wanted to reimagine it for the dance floor and give it our spin.”
Elderbrook added:
“I love ARTBAT. So glad there’s a new version of Cola that matches the vibes of the original but definitely hits harder.”
Set to Dominate Summer 2025
With festival season in full swing, Cola (ARTBAT Remix) is poised to become a staple on dancefloors worldwide — from intimate club sets to massive main stage moments. Its mix of nostalgia and fresh energy makes it one of the most exciting releases of the year so far.
Out now via Defected Records — and already a Beatport Top 10 contender, this remix is only going up.
