"Astronomia" is a house song by Dutch electronic music duo Vicetone and Russian DJ and record producer Tony Igy,created as a remix of Igy's 2010 song with the same name. It was released on July 9,2014. [1]
The original Astronomia song was released in Russia in 2010. [2] Vicetone created a remix of the original song in 2014 and sent it to Tony Igy,who liked it. Igy's label did not approve of the remix,so the remix was released for free online. [3]
In 2020,amidst the COVID-19 pandemic,the song became the subject of the "Coffin Dance" internet meme,which involves the remix playing over a group of Ghanaian men dancing while carrying a coffin. This was a common funeral tradition in Ghana and parts of Africa with the idea of sending off deceased loved ones in style,rather than in the usual western manner of mourning a loss. [3] [4]
