Hayden James releases new single, “Patience” ft. Karen Harding, ahead of his forthcoming album, We Could Be Love. Multi-platinum Australian producer Hayden James reveals another taste of his forthcoming album We Could Be Love, out Friday 13 September via Future Classic. The irresistible new single “Patience”, features UK singer-songwriter Karen Harding and is out now. A sultry, late-night heater, “Patience” is pop-infused house music that will transport you to the middle of a summer dancefloor. Karen Harding, who has collaborated with the likes of Armand Van Helden, Purple Disco Machine and Rudimental, delivers equally hopeful and yearning vocals: “give me a little more patience, give me a little more time”. Her energy reverberates throughout the track; while the addictive melody builds, it reveals an underlying harder edge each time the gears shift up into a bouncy club beat. Hayden shared on the track: “‘Patience’ is a pop record – it’s beautiful and melodic, into bass, vocals and drums. I’ve always wanted to do a response song, and to me, this is a female version of ‘Just Friends’ – an answer from Karen. Her vocal came from a demo I was sent, and as soon as I heard it, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it and felt I had to recreate it. With Karen adding: “We wanted to capture that classic sexy melody with an emotional twist. It’s about falling in love with someone but taking it slow and asking for understanding. I feel like every section of the song takes you on such a journey that you gotta listen again to make sure you didn’t miss anything.” “Patience” is the third single off of Hayden James’ upcoming album We Could Be Love, a record that sees him lean into the foundations of his pop-house world to encapsulate the joy of shared experiences – curating an it-list of features across the album’s 11 tracks, from the pop heavyweight sounds of British-Ethopian artist Izzy Bizu and moodier energy from the UK’s Ross Quinn. He most recently previewed “Deep Diving” with SHELLS, an artist whose dance collaborations include the likes of Rudimental, Biscits and Jack Wins. It followed the house-heavy team up with long-time studio partner Kormak, “Make It”, which was named Danny Howard’s First Play Friday on BBC Radio 1’s Dance Party; not to mention the 2023 release of the title-track featuring otherworldly superduo AR/CO. The result, is an album of engaging twists, designated for long afternoon drives, poolside sing-alongs or no-excuses-needed parties and get togethers. Earlier this year, Hayden launched his Just Friends pop-up party series, inviting special guests and collaborators for nights that blend his own beloved hits with irresistible club cuts. First kicking off with a surprise event on Sydney Harbour this April (selling out in just minutes), he recently followed up with another stellar night in the Gold Coast. Now, after shows in Singapore and Bali, Hayden next makes his way to Ibiza and Barcelona for a string of European summer appearances in August, followed by an extensive run across North America from September. Previously, Hayden has drawn global applause with singles including “Different Worlds” with American pop-house mainstay Anabel Englund, his double A-Side release of UK funky house heater “Beggin’ You” featuring international star on the rise, SAYGRACE, and late-night lounge groover, “Nevermind”, and “Do You Want Me” with Bob Moses. Hayden followed this by hitting the road with ZHU and Bob Moses after featuring at a string of US festivals including California’s Hard Summer, Electric Forest Festival and the national touring festival at home, Grapevine Gathering. Since breaking out in 2013 with “Permission to Love”, Hayden James has gone on to release revered platinum certified hits “Numb” feat. GRAACE, and “Just Friends” feat. Boy Matthews, securing his position at the forefront of Australia’s house music scene. The producer continued his run of hits with the ARIA-nominated debut album Between Us in 2019, and his 2022 follow up LIFTED, which boasts over half a billion streams and debuted at Coachella to a packed out Gobi Tent that same year. Following a long-running feat of production wizardry, Hayden James enjoys the international spotlight and support from the likes of Zane Lowe on Beats 1, triple j, as well as Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, NME and many more. Prepare for the release of Hayden James’ third album, We Could Be Love arriving in September by launching into the quintessential feel-good groove of “Patience” today.

Grammy-winning DJ and producer Elderbrook unveils his new single ‘Shallow Water’, setting the tone for his next LP with a typically emotive banger. Building around a poignant vocal and uplifting organs, ‘Shallow Water’ is a pulsating and life-affirming single. The single also coincides with an enchanting official video on release day, directed by Phúóng Vū with the creative direction of Charlie Rees. The director Phúóng Vū commented “In traditional Vietnamese folklore, the sky is represented by the shape of a circle, while the earth is a square. Developing upon this idea, we wanted the video to feature Vietnam’s most stunning and raw natural landscapes, in combination with holistic choreography to present the human element along with giant, abstract and surreal spheres and cubes that symbolize the earth and the sky.” It follows Elderbrook’s triumphant 2024 return in April with ‘Glad I Found You’, his collaboration with esteemed dance producer George FitzGerald. Speaking on the record “In ‘Shallow Water’, the cards are down, bottom reached and there is nowhere left to go. Our subject has to be better, do better. The song hinges on these bargaining chips, on the get out clauses we give ourselves when we want to change but know it will be hard. It grapples with questions of integrity and our desire to better ourselves against the knowledge that true and meaningful change is difficult and often messy. It’s the never ending self doubt given a voice.” Having toured his acclaimed sophomore album Little Love last year with sold-out shows across the US, UK, Canada and Europe, as well as playing a sold out headline show at Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre this Spring, the singer-songwriter has a massive summer headline show coming up at New York’s Brooklyn Mirage on Friday June 14th. Following that, Elderbrook has various shows in Ibiza this summer and another packed festival season in store, with appearances at Festivals including the likes of Boardmasters in the UK, Tomorrowland, Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits & Osheaga. Having toured with the likes of Jungle, Rufus Du Sol and Odesza, racked up over 2 billion streams to date, and made a 2023 Coachella starring appearance, Elderbrook continues to prove himself a frontrunner in the electronic scene. ‘Shallow Water’ continues his roaring 2024 with a top-tier club anthem teeming with heart and soul. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ6L_6a7RcQ

Sharing his excitement about the release and the launch of the label, Luude shares “I’m really happy to be launching this imprint with a collab featuring one of my best mates from Australia – having an outlet to do things like this is sick. We’ve got some mental records coming from some of my favourite producers,  some parties around the world, we’re doing vinyl and just going back to doing things for the club, which is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time.” Cloak, the management team behind No Instruction, emphasises the label’s mission to embrace creativity and innovation, “people told us this was a stupid idea, launching a new imprint by releasing a collab with one of Luude’s mates from back home – with some pretty high-profile collaborations that could have been first.

The fact that it’s been one of the most requested tunes of the year for Luude is testament to the fact that buzzing records can come from anywhere.” In addition to its innovative approach to music, No Instruction will launch with a series of underground parties across the UK, Europe and Australia throughout 2024.
