Paris-born DJ, producer, vocalist, and songwriter Selena Faider is swiftly becoming one of France’s most exciting electronic music talents. Known for her high-energy sets, eclectic track selections, and infectious vocal hooks, she has earned support from Arielle Free, TSHA, Joseph Capriati, and Richie Hawtin. Her debut record, Underground World, a collaboration with New York house legend Todd Terry on his InHouse label, marked a significant milestone, complemented by her live vocal performances with the House Gospel Choir. Faider has since worked with Defected Records, Elrow, and Beatport, playing iconic stages like Printworks and Drumsheds alongside Dom Dolla, Gorgon City, and Eats Everything. Dubbed by DJ Mag as “The Future of House,” her viral hits, including BBC Radio 1 Dance Anthems’ Track of the Week Party People and TikTok sensation Everybody, have amplified her impact across the dance music world.


To get us in the mood for the celebrations, we invited Selena to share a special Hot Picks selection. Featuring her top tracks to beat the winter chill, Selena’s playlist is the perfect warm-up for Rise Festival’s milestone birthday bash next month where she plays at the Another Rhythm takeover.


Prospa - This Rhythm (feat. RAHH)


The ski festival has officially started. Here is my first track to get you in the mood.



Selena Faider feat. Ivy Chanel - Bring That Body


For the House heads, I’ll choose Bring That Body, my latest single out on Idris Elba’s new label.




MANT feat. Hayla - Lonely Days


Love this record so much.



Se:Sa feat. Sharon Phillips - Like This Like That (Official Video)


My secret weapon recently.



Selena Faider - Need You


Fresh music just for your ears.



Armand Van Helden - I Want Your Soul


The classic that you play over and over again but you’re never tired of.



Gotye, Kimbra, FISHER, Chris Lake, Sante Sansone - Somebody (2024)


Our dancefloor moment...



Nightwares On Wax - Les Nuits


You’re on the way back from the After Party at L’Avalange and you realized the sky is full of stars so this song starts.



Eric Filet - Just Because of You (Come On My Love)


Do you remember those snow classes when we were younger? Well this song is a French classic popularised by the movie "Les Bronzés font du Ski". Every French person has heard it at least once in their life (for me it was when I went on my first snow class trip and the school made a video compilation of the trip). It was obviously this song. Good memories.



Rise Festival must be experienced to be believed, from relaxing in a spa to raving at 3000m. Add this to an unforgettable week of skiing, snowboarding, a full programme of unmissable slopeside activities, mouthwatering dining experiences and the annual Bongos Bingo madness, Rise is the ultimate destination for snow, music and adventure. Catch Selena and a host of international talent across several stages from 7th–14th December 2024 in Les Deux Alpes, France.
