Disco house is having one of those summers where the groove does more talking than the drop. Warm samples, human swing, and records that feel just as good at sunset as they do at 3 a.m. Amsterdam duo ANOTR just doubled down on that mood with the official video for Like It ft. 3DDY, a clip directed by Alice Kong that treats the dancefloor like a waking dream.
The track first landed in May as part of the run-up to Withness, ANOTR’s third studio album on their own No Art imprint. It is a soulful, sample-driven disco house cut built for movement, with Dutch producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist 3DDY right in the middle of the picture. If you already know the duo from Talk To You ft. 54 Ultra, this sits in the same family: polished house bones, live feel, and a chorus that wants to be shouted back at the booth. Talk To You became the moment that made the rest of the year look inevitable — more than 200 million streams, a UK Singles Chart peak at No. 3, No. 7 on Shazam’s Global Chart, No. 1 on Beatport’s Top 100, over 600 million UGC views, and a spot on Spotify’s Sound Of The Summer 2026 list. Like It is the album track that keeps that dancefloor promise going.
The video is the extra layer. Kong, whose work includes campaigns for Longchamp, Gucci and The Met plus clips for Vendredi Sur Mer, Bon Entendeur, Darius and Ichon, shoots with saturated colour, humour and a soft spot for the absurd. Racing drivers, flamingos and a growing crowd of odd characters drift through the frame until reality and imagination stop arguing. The idea came from Jesse after a set on the Playa at Burning Man. He sat at a party watching a calm scene turn stranger and stranger while friends tried to pull him up to dance. That feeling — stay still, watch the world get weirder, then give in — is the whole clip.
ANOTR flew to Lithuania to shoot with Kong and the Partizan crew and talk about it like a proper collaboration rather than a one-day cameo. That matters for a duo whose whole brand is togetherness. Withness is an album about that word. On A Trip, the 2025 sophomore LP written on immersive retreats, already pushed them past straight club house into something more exploratory and still racked up more than 300 million streams, with love from DJ Mag, Rolling Stone, Billboard and Mixmag. The On A Trip Tour filled rooms like O2 Brixton, Brooklyn Storehouse and AFAS Live Amsterdam. In 2025 they opened Pacha Ibiza, headlined Finsbury Park and UNVRS Ibiza, and closed Miami Music Week. No Art is not just the label. It is the events brand, the retreats, the refusal to chase whatever is trending this week.
Musically, Like It does what good disco house is supposed to do in 2026. It keeps the pocket tight, leaves space for the sample and the vocal to breathe, and never treats the dancefloor as a checklist of drops. ANOTR have been leaning into live instrumentation and that slightly imperfect human feel for a while now — the same instinct that made Talk To You sit on a terrace and in a warehouse. 3DDY is not a guest stamp. He is part of the writing and the texture.
Independent artists watching this run should notice the infrastructure as much as the video. ANOTR built No Art so the music, the parties and the visuals could move at their own pace.
