What made you interested in electronic music?
The thing that made us fall in love with electronic music is how it brings people together. All nationalities dancing to a vibe and that what we try to do in our music mix all kinds of music and make it our interpretation of what we wanna express.
Which of your track is your favorite and why?
I still like “di nobo” because of the message. It means start over. So it is a personal one for us It’s our life story of going through hard times but always trust the process.
What can you tell us about your next music release?
Our roots ep is our next one. We are so hyped about it. It has a lot of afro and latin influences and it is a side of us that u have not seen yet. We go from dancehall vibes to afro and back to our island Curacao.
How do you prepare for your sets? Do you have any special ritual before playing?
Dorothy: Yes I have to warm up the vocal cords. That ‘s all. I just like a peaceful and quiet moment before the show.
Andy: I wanna go in the room to see a the dj before us play. To feel the room and then go into my quiet space to reflect and enjoy the moment.
What track did you open with and why?
We like to start with “get loose”. It just sets the tone. I don’t know what it is about that song but it just works in the beginning of the set.
What can you tell us about the atmosphere on the dance floor?
People come to have a good time. We notice that our tribe really comes to party! Smiling faces, great vibes. We love the interaction with our crowd!
What track did you close with? At what point in the set did you know you were closing with this track?
Smoking to cali, it is one of the new songs on our label called D’eaupe. It has the right energy and we love those vocals.
What was your experience at Elrow Malaga?
It was absolutely amazing. We were so hyped to see that there where so many people there! We are still buzzing to be honest. Elrow just knows how to throw a party!
What did you like the most about this show?
The moment when we played “hijos de la noche “, which is also a song on our new ep. When the confetti came it was like an explosion of vibes!

Shermanology - Roots EP (D’EAUPE)
Dive into a world of rhythm and culture as Shermanology proudly unveils their highly anticipated EP, Roots EP, set to be released on 8th September via their very own label, D'EAUPE.

Featuring two captivating tracks, ‘Hijos De La Noche’ and ‘Coco Loco’, Roots EP is a testament to the group's dedication to pushing musical boundaries and connecting with their roots.
Shermanology sets the tone with ‘Hijos De La Noche’, a track that captures the essence of nighttime wanderings. Drawing inspiration from the vibrant energy of the night, this track weaves together infectious beats, hypnotic melodies, and entrancing vocals. The result is a dancefloor anthem that invites listeners to lose themselves in the music and embrace the magic of the night.
Prepare to be transported to the colorful shores of Curacao as Shermanology joins forces with two remarkable talents on ‘Coco Loco’. Teaming up with their cousin Cheryl Lispier on vocals in the duo’s native Papiamentu language, and the sensational Curacao formation KUENTA on percussion, this track is a celebration of cultural fusion and collaboration. The lively rhythms and joyful melodies reflect the spirit of the Caribbean, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in the carefree vibes of the tropics.
Roots EP showcases Shermanology's commitment to exploring their musical heritage while embracing contemporary sounds - with part two still to come in late September. The EP's tracks are a testament to the group's ability to seamlessly blend various musical elements, resulting in a sonic experience that's both authentic and innovative. With ‘Hijos De La Noche’ and ‘Coco Loco’, Shermanology invites you to connect with the essence of their musical journey and experience the magic of their creative evolution.
“We decided to make an EP dedicated to our Latin & African roots”, says Andy, one half of Shermanology. “Being raised in the Caribbean we felt that we needed to combine the house sound with Latin & African sounds.”
Brother and sister duo Andy and Dorothy Sherman, aka Shermanology, have spent the last five years refining their signature ‘soultec’ sound, combining their Caribbean and Dutch roots with a garage influence to eclectic effect. Last year they had huge success with ‘It’s A Killa’, their collaboration with Australian producer DJ FISHER, which came out on Fisher’s label Catch & Release and has over 35 million streams. Their 2022 collaboration with ‘Tell You What It Is’ with Eats Everything received global support, whilst the self-released single ‘Boyz N Da Club’ also has over 21 million streams and was named Annie Mac’s Hottest Record in the World, whilst their Spotify has over 100 million streams.
After a hectic year of touring North America, playing Elrow events across Ibiza and New York and appearing at London shows with Jamie Jones and MK, the duo have been having a huge 2023. A festival-filled calendar has included Kappa Futur Festival in Turin, the Martinez Brothers-curated Cuttin Headz, Miami’s LaLaLand Festival, UK dance festival Beat-Herder, plus Rio’s The Town coming up in September to a capacity of 100,000, and further events hosted by Defected, Dirtybird, Elrow, Paradise, and XXXperience. Meanwhile on the release schedule are several exciting remixes and collaborations which will soon be revealed, and upcoming cuts for D'EAUPE Demand, Defected and Hot Creations.
Roots EP is an immersive musical journey from the Shermanology family - and another dose of creative brilliance from the D’EAUPE label.
