Best 808 Beach Collaborations
Amy Douglas opened the door. Cazwell came back twice. That pattern shows 808 BEACH found something worth building on with their collaborators.
Amy Douglas: where it began
The most important collaboration in 808 BEACH's catalogue so far. "Whatever Daddy Says" arrived in October 2024 and is described as their official collaborative artist debut. Amy Douglas's vocal is the reason it lands as a proper song rather than a club tool. Start here to understand the partnership.
Cazwell and the continuation
Cazwell shows up twice, which tells you this was a real creative partnership rather than a one-track experiment. "Pile Driver" from 2025 is the sultrier pairing, while "Let's Go!" leans into the joyous side of their sound. Together the two tracks are proof that 808 BEACH's original-artist era has genuine legs beyond the Amy Douglas single. The producers and vocalist found something that worked.
The remix foundation
Before the original singles, 808 BEACH built their name by reworking tracks for major artists. Their credits include remixes of Sia's "Eye To Eye", Lenny Kravitz's "Let It Ride", Billy Porter's "Caught In The Middle" and Arthur Baker's "GET DOWN". John "J-C" Carr's remix of Zayn & Sia's "Dusk Till Dawn" is the biggest by scale, with more than 25 million streams. None of these are 808 BEACH originals, but they're a big part of why the duo has the pop instincts you hear on "Whatever Daddy Says" and "Pile Driver".
The Peace Bisquit network
Bill Coleman co-founded Peace Bisquit back in 1990, the label that developed Deee-Lite and later worked with Sinéad O'Connor and Lenny Kravitz. 808 BEACH is closely associated with the Peace Bisquit label and its wider artist collective, which explains the deep bench of collaborators. That network is part of how they found Amy Douglas and Cazwell. It's also why their remix credits run so deep.
