Bella Ciao began as an Italian folk song and became widely known as an anthem of resistance, before new dance versions brought it to a younger global audience. El Profesor released a version that French DJ Hugel remixed in 2018, turning the melody into a house track that charted across Europe that summer. Interest in the song had already grown through the series Money Heist, and the remix spread further through streaming clips, party playlists and short online edits, where its short drop became a ready made celebration cue.
