Think you know everything about Felix Jaehn? Think again.
The German DJ and producer, famous for tropical house anthems like “Ain’t Nobody (Loves Me Better)” and “Book of Love,” has a treasure trove of hidden collaborations that’ll make you do a double-take.
From genre-bending experiments to team-ups with artists you’d never expect, here are five under-the-radar Jaehn projects that prove his versatility goes way beyond the charts.
1. The Folk-Pop Crossover: “Shine” with Years & Years

Before Olly Alexander was belting out synth-pop bangers, he and Felix Jaehn quietly dropped “Shine,” a folksy, acoustic-driven gem in 2015.
With handclaps, mandolin riffs, and zero EDM drops, this collab is like finding a secret folk festival set from a DJ who usually owns the main stage.
2. The K-Pop Connection: “Drink” with BTOB’s Sungjae

Yes, Felix Jaehn has a K-pop credit!
In 2019, he co-produced “Drink,” a smooth R&B track for Sungjae of mega-group BTOB—complete with sultry vocals and a bassline that’s a million miles from “Cheerleader.”
Proof that his studio skills translate even when the language doesn’t.
3. The Indie Surprise: “Close Your Eyes” with VIZE & Miss Li

Teaming up with Swedish indie-pop artist Miss Li, Jaehn helped create this quirky, piano-driven earworm in 2020.
It’s like if a Berlin nightclub and a Stockholm coffeehouse had a musical baby—unexpected, but it works.
4. The German Rap Experiment: “No Therapy” with Sido & KIDDO
In 2021, Jaehn flipped the script entirely by producing for rap legend Sido.
The result? A moody, trap-inflected track about heartbreak that shows Jaehn can build beats for bars as easily as for breezy choruses.
5. The Orchestral Moment: “Happy” with VIZE & Kelvin Jones

This 2022 collab features sweeping strings and a gospel choir—basically, Felix Jaehn doing his best Hans Zimmer impression.
Who knew the king of poolside beats had such cinematic range?
So next time someone calls Felix Jaehn a one-genre wonder, hit them with these deep cuts.
Which of these surprises you the most? Drop a comment—we bet there’s at least one you’ll be streaming immediately.
