Moon Boots Releases Sophomore Album Bimini Road

San Francisco native Eric Luttrell announces his highly-anticipated third studio album ‘Life at Full Speed’, released on October 11 on Anjunadeep. The album announcement is paired with the release of lead single ‘Make U Happy’. First breaking into electronic music as part of the OWSLA-affiliated trio The M Machine, Eric embarked on his solo journey in 2016 with the acclaimed ‘Need You EP’. This was followed by Anjunadeep favourites such as the ‘Generate EP’ and ‘Intergalactic Plastic’, the latter of which was named Hottest Record In The World by Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1. His musical progression continued with the launch of two studio albums, ‘Intro Clouds’ and ‘Lucky Ones’, as well as the captivating trilogy EP series ‘Music For My Memories’. Luttrell’s body of work has amassed over 100 million streams to date. Written over the past two years, ‘Life at Full Speed’ represents a new chapter for Eric. Becoming a father last year profoundly shifted his perspective on life and its purpose; and the album represents the ethos of embracing life to its fullest and seizing every moment. Three of the album’s 13 tracks, ‘Sunshine’, ‘Space’ and ‘Sunshine Song’ have already been released and supported by BBC Radio 1 and SiriusXM Chill, and they, alongside the bouncy new single ‘Make U Happy’, set the tone for this warm and uplifting album. A standout feature of ‘Life At Full Speed’ is the way in which Eric weaves his own voice into his productions, as well as vocals from Canadian artist Molly Moonwater on single ‘Something Right’. In marrying the melodic productions for which he’s become known with more overtly vocal moments that aren’t as commonplace in his catalogue, Luttrell promises to delight and surprise any listener of this album. ‘Life at Full Speed’ is set for release on October 11 on Anjunadeep.

Sultan + Shepard release new studio album ‘Forever, Now’ on Lane 8’s This Never Happened imprint. Sultan + Shepard are pleased to present their new studio album, ‘Forever, Now,’ available to stream today from Lane 8’s This Never Happened imprint. “When we began working on ‘Forever, Now,’ the world had started to open up from the pandemic, we had begun touring again, and it felt like the great thawing of pent-up feelings and emotions were being released from us, and also all over the world. Some of these feelings were beautiful and emotional, others darker and messier. Most of this album was written during breaks between shows when we’re back in our studio but we still had this sense of energy moving, flowing, and being allowed to trickle into new places with new feelings.  Not surprisingly, a lot of the music leaned towards more joyful energy, bursting with positive emotions while most of the lyrics and vocals we had recorded with our collaborators were asking deeper questions about longing, separation, and time passing. It was a time of growth and positivity amidst general change and often chaos for the world but also for us personally. The concept of “Forever, Now” grew out of this familiar feeling of being grounded in a place of creativity despite being in new places sonically or physically. We realized that wherever we went, there we were. Things were always moving and changing, as we ourselves were too. But through the act of being sincere in expressing our emotions, a sense of being in just the right place or hitting just the right note would often arise.” – Sultan + Shepard After a chance meeting at an after-hours club in Montreal in 2002, Ossama Al Sarraf and Ned Shepard quickly discovered they had a natural musical chemistry. They began collaborating on original songs and remixes, signing their first song to John Digweed’s Bedrock label. From collaborations with revered EDM artists such as Dillon Francis and Tiësto to remixes for major pop acts like Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, and Madonna, the duo established themselves as one of dance music’s leading partnerships. The next decade saw them tour around the world including stops at major festivals such as Tomorrowland, Ultra, and EDC. During this time they were recognized by their peers for major accolades including a Grammy nomination for Best Remixed Recording for their remix of Bruno Mars’ “Locked Out Of Heaven”; the SOCAN Music award for International Song of the Year for “Bad” (the multi-platinum single which they co-wrote and produced alongside David Guetta); and two Juno Award nominations for Best Dance Recording. Most recently the duo have returned to their melodic house and progressive roots, signing with Lane 8 and his label This Never Happened and launching a radio show Dialekt Radio. They have released multiple singles and EPs, collaborating with Jon Hopkins Angela McCluskey, Shallou, Le Youth, and others. In 2021 they released their second album “Something, Everything” to critical acclaim. Their new album “Forever, Now” is available now on This Never Happened.. ‘Forever, Now’ Tracklist 1.

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.

Peach PRC followed up the success of “Josh” with her self-proclaimed girly camp pop single “Symptomatic”, receiving 12 million plus combined streams to date, and ending 2021 with “Heavy”, which has tallied 22 million plus combined streams. In 2022, Peach PRC released the liberating single “God Is A Freak” and had everyone talking including pop music titans Billie Eilish, Finneas, and Justin Tranter. She followed it up with “Forever Drunk”, where she teamed up with GRAMMY Award-nominated powerhouse songwriter Bonnie McKee.
