Aerus Unveil Lead Single ‘Ease Your Mind’ From Forthcoming Debut EP

Aerus has just dropped their latest single ‘Ease Your Mind‘, setting the stage for their highly anticipated first EP. This melodic masterpiece is perfect for any audience, intense and Melodic House fans. The track’s intricate composition creates a serious amount of tension in the builds. In the process, putting listeners on the edge of their seats. With powerful drums and a captivating groove, ‘Ease Your Mind’ is bound to enthrall anyone who presses play.
A Touch of Nostalgia
The inspiration behind ‘Ease Your Mind’ comes from a deeply personal place. Dillon, one half of the dynamic duo Aerus, drew from his mother’s legacy as a former Pop singer in the ’90s. During a casual conversation, Dillon’s mother shared some of her unfinished songs, sparking a wave of creativity. The raw potential in her vocals prompted Aerus to set up a studio session to re-record her lyrics. This led to the birth of ‘Ease Your Mind’. Captivated by the emotion in her voice, Aerus stayed in the studio, meticulously crafting the track around her heartfelt performance.
Building Anticipation
The release of ‘Ease Your Mind’ not only showcases Aerus’ unique ability to blend nostalgic elements with modern Deep House but also heightens the anticipation for their upcoming EP. The track’s powerful drums and entrancing groove hint at the musical journey fans can expect from the full EP. Aerus’ knack for creating tension in their builds ensures that ‘Ease Your Mind’ keeps listeners hooked from start to finish.
A Promising Future
As Aerus gears up for their first EP, ‘Ease Your Mind’ serves as a promising glimpse into their evolving sound. This single encapsulates their creative process and dedication to producing music that resonates on an emotional level. With such a strong release leading the way, the upcoming EP is sure to be a hit among fans of Deep and Melodic House.
About Aerus:

Opiuo And Ashez Unleash ‘Underground’ Ahead of Upcoming EP

On May 31st, as everyone geared up towards the first day of June, Australian Bass talent Opiuo teamed up with New Zealander rising star Ashez to unleash their latest single, ‘Underground’. The release of this awesome track efficiently blends unique Bass drops with eloquent, mystical melodies to make it a piece of music that will be on someone’s playlist in an instant. ‘Underground’ is the first single of the upcoming EP, based on the same name as this track, and which will provide a lot of creative grooves that ensure that each bass line will fulfill each listener’s eardrums with happiness.
The EP from Opiuo and Ashez will contain four tracks, including ‘Underground’ itself, and it will come out on June 21st. First, though, click ‘Play’ on the Spotify link to jam out to this exciting new track from a duo that will take Bass music to a whole new world.
How Both Artists Met
Opiou explains how he became great friends with Ashez — through the equally amazing CloZee. He says “Me and Ashez have been very close for years now“. And then further elaborates, “We met via our good friend CloZee (I heard his music while staying at her house one time) and I was instantly like “who is THIS?!”. I played a couple of his songs in my set (I rarely play anyone but my own) and instantly wanted to connect and collaborate. After some internet sessions we met in real life and the creativity just flowed seamlessly. I’m so proud of this music. It’s more moody, and a little darker, but that’s what a good collaboration should be, a bit of both of you mashed into something fresh and new“.

On the other hand, Ashez also shared a few words with us, detailing the process of creating the EP. “Oscar and I became friends after he found my music and reached out. I was stoked as I had been a fan for years, and now I’m even more stoked to announce the release of our EP. We realized pretty quickly we worked extremely well as a team, and our first single release, ‘Bash Plate‘ received so much hype and support. Oscar invited me to come and stay at his place for a week in Byron before a festival we were both playing at, we started a few different projects and have slowly been adding and adjusting them ever since. I’m so excited to release this EP as both Oscar and myself have been playing these tracks out for ages now.“

EDMTunes New Music Friday – Week 23

Listen to the most flavour-packed tracks we discovered this week.
Music makes the world go round. And in that regard, we’re constantly on the lookout for new, exciting tunes to share with our audience. We’ve found some that cause goosebumps, and make you open your eyes and get up from your chair to dance. So put on your best pair of headphones, or turn up your speakers, and enjoy this week’s New Music Friday.
Here are our top picks for the best music we came across this week, in no particular order.
Khetama – Believe in Mysteries (Viktor Drzewiecki Remix)
Genre: Tech House, Melodic Techno
The first entry on this week’s NMF is a take on a track which gained quite a bit of traction during the last leg of 2023. First released in November of last year, Khetama‘s ‘Believe in Mysteries‘ was swift to catch the attention of acts such as Marco Carola, Don Diablo, Ritchie Hawtin, and Fatboy Slim.
Out on June 6th, enter Viktor Drzewiecki, who makes a triumphant enter on remix duties for this track, transforming it into a warm, poolside anthem ready to be delivered to your favourite beach club this Summer season ahead. A laid-back Tech House foundation with a bit of Melodic Techno sprinkled on top, you’ll most likely encounter this one out in the wild very soon.
David Forbes – Air Raid
Genre: Tech Trance
How can you say no to a bit of David Forbes? The UK-based Tech Trance maestro has an impressive career, spanning almost 2 decades, and perhaps an even more impressive sound, determined to set any and every dancefloor ablaze. His latest single, ‘Air Raid‘, is no exception to that statement.
Seeing the light of day today via Dreamstate Records, this piece turns heads with its distorted Techno kick, its acid sounds, and overall unmeasurable amounts of power, yet knows how to elegantly introduce a proper Trance breakdown that unites these fierce drops, like a floating bridge just before coming down to Earth.
Will Atkinson feat. Gurli – Calling For You
Genre: Trance
Ben Hemsley’s Bebé Recordings delivers, once again, just what we needed. A summer singalong with a vintage tint, ready for melancholic and party-devoted crowds alike? You will not believe it. An instant classic, dare I say, coming to you from one of the quintessential Knights of Trance: Will Atkinson. I could go on for entire paragraphs, but the truth is, you must listen to this to feel the emotions. No amount of words compares.
Made complete by the spot-on soft-yet-slightly-bittersweet voice of Gurli, the track is a nod to the White Isle, says its author. “‘Calling For You‘ rediscovers that lost essence of Balearic Trance. Your last night in Ibiza, best holiday of your life, surrounded by your mates on a packed dance floor under the CO2 cannons wishing that moment would last forever“, says Atkinson. And we do feel that, for sure.
Jonas Schmidt – Wasted Days
Genre: Future House, Deep House
One of the fastest rising stars from Denmark, Jonas Schmidt has taken the world by storm. He’s no one-hit-wonder, though, for he’s been a part of the industry for over a decade. At his 27 years of age, he’s already closed a couple monumental deals with names such as Universal, Revealed, Black Hole, and Sony.
His latest single aims to embody the feel-good spirit of the warmer Summer days ahead. ‘Wasted Days‘ gets its unique sound from a high-pitched male vocal resting over offbeat, housy Piano chords, friendly EDX-resembling plucks, and an overall hopeful aura. This one is your go-to Future House track when making memories with friends this season.
henrikz & Gianluca Dimeo – When I’m With You
Genre: Deep House
Danish Deep House prodigy henrikz is back, weaving his magic once again. He’s been on quite a high working with Soave, and he’s come back for yet another gigantic tune. His latest offering, ‘When I’m With You‘, is a melodic and raw House collaboration with German producer Gianluca Dimeo.
This delicate, charming, and hypnotic track is our final feature of this week’s New Music Friday, and, yet again, follows the very welcome theme of summery memories, warm smiles and unforgettable nights by the seashore. The various elements that have a role throughout the single are not too much, nor too little: they’re simply perfect in energy to portray a story.
Final Words
Stay tuned, for more of our compilations every Friday — based on demand. And be sure to follow EDMTunes for all the latest news and reviews that revolve around our beloved Electronic Dance Music!

[Event Review] First Installment of Beyond Wonderland Chicago Delights Attendees Despite Rain

It’s quite amazing to look back and realize that the announcement that Insomniac was bringing Beyond Wonderland to Chicago (June 1 + 2) was all the way back in 2023. The city and our industry have been going through many changes since the pandemic and are still trying to find their footing. We do have some ol’ reliables such as Lollapalooza, North Coast, and ARC Music Festival. But there have been a few festivals that have come in, stayed a year or two, and left for various reasons. So when Beyond was announced, many were optimistic, although it was also hard to look away from past writings on the wall. So when June 1st arrived and many started the trek to Huntington Pavilion right on the lakefront, no one really knew what to expect.
However, we’re proud to say that it was an incredible event even factoring in the consistent and intense rain that fell all Saturday and the mud that it stirred on the second day. Despite the mud pits, it was extremely enjoyable to be a part of, arguably, the most memorable and well-produced Insomniac event in the Midwest since EDC Chicago in 2013.
Venue Layout + Vibes
The rain did feel very eerily similar to TomorrowWorld 2015 (RIP). Upon arriving at the festival gates at 2 PM for opening, many attendees were huddled together under ponchos and umbrellas. But, there was a line at security of the die-hards that were willing to brave the rain to see their favorite artists. The toes were tapping already to the music that began to play as we were let in.
After taking in the grounds, the set-up was brilliant. The venue has one established main stage for shows during the season. The other 3 stages were built and spaced perfectly with virtually nonexistent sound bleed. It took only a couple minutes to get from stage to stage. While Chicago hosts an array of genre-loving fans who range in friendliness, there were only positive vibes and smiles all around. In fact, I saw strangers helping each other out of the mud and exchanging contact info after laughing it off. On the flip side, Sunday’s weather was immensely gorgeous. The sun brought out the attendees who designed outfits to go with the Alice In Wonderland theme.
There were many places to go explore, relax, do, see, and experience. The sound at each stage was by far the best that we’ve had in the city in a very long time (could not hear your neighbors’ conversations, amazing). There was plenty of room to find a spot whether you were solo or with a group. Now, let’s dive into the music attendees got to hear through the amazing sound systems.
Lineup Standouts
As I mentioned before, the Chicago crowd does, indeed, love the local House music. But there are many others that EDM fans adore. So when this lineup dropped and we all saw the intense variety that was set to come here, it was exhilarating. The headliners included Kaskade, Svdden Death, Jai Wolf, Chris Lorenzo, Tiësto, REZZ, Of The Trees, and Eli Brown. Underneath those spectacular names, the weekend hosted some insane firsts and also memorable sets. We heard REZZ play out her 2024 edition of “Edge” and Oliver Heldens bringing Maddix up to premier their new collab. Audien and Jason Ross went B2B for the first time ever (and it was incredible – a weekend favorite). Benny Benassi played all of his legendary tracks and Trivecta played his heart out through the rain with his guitar, hyping the crowd up as it stormed on.
We also had a great drum and bass lineup with Dimension, Kanine, and Reaper. The stages were full for RL Grime and Kayzo, of course. Alesso had the crowd singing to the classics during his Sunday night set as well as Daily Bread and SoDown bringing the funk as the sun started setting. Alesso also hit up Radius for an afterparty with his other project, BODY HI. Caterpillar’s Garden was full of House and Techno lovers shielding themselves from the rain and dancing around despite the wet clothes and hair.
I’ve been around the music scene for well over a decade. It had been a second since I’d found myself wanting to be at many stages at once when there were timetable conflicts. And Beyond Wonderland Chicago put me back into my early years of wanting to see as much music as I could. It was very refreshing. The local artists threw down right away and the headliners wrapped each day up perfectly. As I woke up on Monday, I was ready to replay the weekend right away!
So, 2025? YEP!
Lastly, some great news came out yesterday regarding the future of this Midwest festival. Social media was buzzing to see that Insomniac announced that the festival is already slated to return in 2025 on June 7th and 8th. It will be held in the same location. Tickets are already on sale! Payment plans are available beginning at just $9.99 down – take a look at the info here. Lock in your tickets! The word is spreading quickly about just how fantastic the entire weekend was. We’re glad it’s here to stay for the foreseeable future.

‘girl$’, Dom Dolla’s New Anthem For Modern Dating

“Girls don’t need nobody.”
It’s an infectious chant that has quickly invited mass sing-alongs at festivals like Coachella. But “girls don’t need nobody” isn’t just a catchy phrase. It’s a statement, which captures the sentiment of a generation redefining love and relationships.
girl’$’: A Song Inspired by Dating Frustration and Modern Choice
Australian DJ Dom Dolla‘s first single of the year, ‘girl$‘, dropped June 7th on Three Six Zero Recordings, Ministry Of Sound UK, and Sony Music ANZ, and it is more than just a dance floor anthem — it’s a rallying cry for navigating the modern dating scene.
“‘girl$’ was inspired by a conversation I had with a bunch of friends who were all tired of bad dates. They were giving up on the whole charade,” Dom shared. “In ‘24, we have so much choice. Nobody is limited by who they want to love or spend time with, whether that’s a guy, girl, or even just relish in their own company.”
Collaboration & Inspiration: Dom Dolla on the Song’s Creation
Fan videos featuring the song have already amassed over 46 million views, proving the global resonance of this anthem for independence.
Dom adds, “I wrote the lyrics based upon a story a friend relayed to me about a wild night out she had. I recorded it and heavily affected my vocals, but felt it needed a strong female performance, so I reached out to my good pal Caitlin Stubbs and asked if she was keen to re-perform the vocal. Her voice is fantastic and suits the record so well. I even left some crumbs of my vocal in there too.”
From Vegas to Ibiza: Dom Dolla Rides the Momentum
Dom Dolla continues his incredible momentum from 2023, with performances slated across the UK and EU, including stops at Tomorrowland Belgium and Ibiza’s Ushuaïa night club this summer. He’s currently in the midst of a Las Vegas residency at LIV in Fontainebleau. Tickets for Dom’s Australian tour instantly sold 150,000 numbers, months in advance.

Tomas Abester Releases Progressive Trance Gem, ‘Rune’

This one is pure Argentinian ear candy. Don’t miss out on it.
Double prize today for those who love some good ‘ole Progressive Trance tunes. Right as we were wrapping up our Friday, something popped up on the radar — or rather, someone: Tomas Abester. And after giving the Digital Drift album a proper listen, this one feels like the worthy successor to close the day on quite a high.
We’ve had him on here a couple of times already, not long ago when he released his Gallant debut ‘Altares‘, and earlier, when he unleashed ‘Year Of The Dragon‘ alongside Ren Faye. A core rising element of the Argentinian scene, his sound has got to heights from the likes of Paul van Dyk, JES, and many more.
His latest single, ‘Runa’, is out now, and boy is it a belter.
‘Runa’
Following a string of releases, ‘Runa’ is Abester’s arrival at Antima Music, carrying his iconic sounds over to new destinations. The essence of his craft is untouched, though, pairing potent growls and hard-hitting drops with delicate, verge-of-tears atmospheres, for the ultimate sonic combo.
As is the norm with his pieces, this tune also has a special meaning behind it, which goes beyond the mere musical aspect of the arrangement and offers answers as to why the title is what it is:
The first thing you’ll notice is how strong the kick-snare link is. As the song unfolds you’ll start to hear less of the beat and dive into the break, which is bound to captivate you through the clever use of pulsing distant sounds, an upfront melody, and that mysterious whisper Abester mentions. We’re over the moon with this one.
Listen to Tomas Abester‘s ‘Rune‘ by hitting the ‘Play’ button on your Spotify player attached below. Otherwise, don’t hesitate to visit this link to support the release on your platform of choice. And stay tuned to our page for the latest news and views from our beloved Dance music world.

Solardo and it's murph Drop Frisky House Track, "Fetish"

UK duo Solardo and it's murph have joined forces for a new house track, "Fetish," released on the former's own Sola Records.
When Solardo arrived LA, they entered a session together for the first time, according to murph. During that initial meeting, they listened to parts of a four-hour Solomun extended set, which sparked the inspiration for "Fetish."
Inspired by the techno and house music icon's work, they completed the track in just eight hours. So they decided to release the track, which they maintain was specifically produced for dancefloors rather than mainstream appeal, to coincide with the closing of Miami's iconic Club Space for the summer.
Underpinned by the seductive vocals of ero808, the beat of "Fetish" grooves with gritty drums and textured synths. It's dark and captivating, the perfect soundtrack for a sweaty, underground dancefloor.

Solomun Stuns LA At Exposition Park

Framework’s recent event in Exposition Park featuring Solomun, Nala, and Julia Sandstorm introduced an innovative and unique stage design and custom visual production.
The original show was scheduled in Oxnard, California, at the Mandalay Generating Station. The custom-built stage was designed to resemble a power plant, as the production company had to improvise due to a location change. Framework did an excellent job. The stage included projection mapping of power plant imagery, creating an immersive experience for the audience. The stage also featured Tesla coils, which produced lightning effects in rhythm with the music.
Pyrotechnics and smoke machines were also utilized to enhance the atmosphere. Visuals were mixed live, responding to the music in real time without prior rehearsal with the artists. Anyone with an eye for production technology would recognize the work and detail that was put into the stage design, specifically the visual effects.
While the visuals and production technology were certainly impressive, so was the 6-hour set from Solomun. The DJ/Producer is relatively famous for his lengthy marathon-like DJ performances.
Framework is returning to the Expo Lawn West consistently this summer with performances by Hot Since 82 for Knee Deep in Los Angeles, Anjunadeep Open Air Los Angeles, Nora En Pure Presents Purified featuring Justin Martin and Worakls,

Listen to Doctor P's New Genre-Bending Single, "Nicotine Baby" Featuring KLEO PATRA

If you enjoy a good club anthem but also heavy bass, Doctor P's new single, "Nicotine Baby," might be just the song for you.
The fresh track is rooted in dubstep, but its producer, one of the genre's most influential, has intentions of going far beyond a singular stylistic classification.
"I really wanted to make a crossover between dubstep and hyperpop," Doctor P said in a statement. "KLEO PATRA's vocals really brought the track to life. I had a lot of fun making this one with her."
Off the rip, "Nicotine Baby" picks up steam with eerie bells and chimes followed by KLEO PATRA's lustful lyricism, which paints a hot-blooded picture of energy pulsing between two people. Her vocals then lead to an intense bass drop, fit to make listeners move with excitement and fluidity. This ebb and flow carries throughout the arrangement, cycling between ethereal vocal riffs and choppy bass.
"Nicotine Baby" is out now via Circus Records, which Doctor P co-founded alongside fellow dubstep veteran Flux Pavilion. The new single is likely to be heard on his upcoming tour, which kicks off on June 8th before sweeping across Virginia Beach, Dallas, Philadelphia, Tucson and finally Tempe on July 13th.

Freqish Unveils Tasty Two-Tracker, ‘Come Together Now / The Abyss’

Here’s a genre-bender EP that will have you deciding between dancing with the lights on or off.
Happy Friday! Friday, with “F” as in “New Tunes”. No, not quite. But “F” as in “Freqish“, and that one works flawlessly. We’re excited to share a frankly delicious EP, coming to you from one of Dance Music’s veteran acts. Right from the bat, you know something interesting awaits — and you’d be absolutely correct.
Freqish
For Brandon Lee, Dance music is a language that transcends words and worlds, using vibrations to reach the deepest fibres of our being. With over two decades of experience as a DJ, producer, engineer, and label owner, he launched the Freqish project in 2020. His debut track, ‘Let’s Get High‘, smashed onto the scene, topping the Beatport Deep House charts and landing in the Top 100 overall.
His largest pride is how much dedication and soul he puts into each of his projects. And that statement shines through when you listen to his catalogue. And you’d be in luck if that’s your aim today, for Freqish has just unveiled a new EP to the world: the union of two belters, ‘Come Together Now‘ and ‘The Abyss‘.
Come Together Now / The Abyss
A daring release which brings back some old while splashing some new into the equation, Come Together Now / The Abyss is Freqish’s latest, available now via Doc Brown’s imprint, Unlearn:Records. These two pieces could very well earn the title of genre-bender, for all we know.
The first out of the pair, ‘Come Together Now‘, stands out due to its groove nature, yet with a tense expression, very much like the 2015-and-older Progressive House you’d hear acts like Axwell and AN21 play back then. With pure House notes such as the vocal sample pairing with the slightly crunchy Acid bassline and the lack of 2-and-4 percussion from the get-go, this one will serve as the peak energy moment in sets, we bet.
Its counterpart, ‘The Abyss‘, acts as a more theoretically-accurate take on Tech House. Minimalistic, sober, oomphy and energetic, the B-side of this EP makes excellent use of each and every element featured throughout the duration, combining classic machine percussion with full basslines and the occasional melodic signal, made to keep the flame alive and well.
Listen to Frequish’s gigantic two-tracker, Come Together Now / The Abyss, by hitting the ‘Play’ button on your Spotify player attached below. Otherwise, don’t hesitate to visit this link to support the release on your platform of choice. And stay tuned to our page for the latest news and views from our beloved Dance music world.

Alber-K Brings Sultry Vibes With New Single ‘Imperfect The Same’ Alongside Nino Lucarelli

Following on from his last single ‘Stay’, which has recently passed 1 million streams on Spotify, rising star Alber-K is back on our new music feeds with ‘Imperfect The Same’. This single sees the Belgian artist continue his hot streak of releases as he teams up with vocalist Nino Lucarell to add another hit to his ever growing catalog.
At just 28 years old, Alber-K has quickly become one of the standout acts in the Belgian electronic dance music scene. Standing out with his creativity and passion for all things dance music, Alber-K has been described as a “musical prodigy” by industry professionals. Although he may be young, he is no stranger to the scene, having starting playing at the age of 15. That experience and knowledge on the ever-evolving scene has made him understand his own sound even more, evident when you take a listen to his music.
His new single ‘Imperfect the Same’, sees him link up with Nino Lucarell for the first time and it’s safe to say they are the perfect pairing. Nino Lucarelli, who has worked alongside acts such as KAAZE, Burak Yeter, Dubvision, Raiden, and more, lays down amazing vocals and lyrics that resonate perfectly with the instrumental that Alber-K created.
“I like lyrics that call for happiness, that generate a positive feeling. My dearest wish behind this track is that the people who listen to it have a great summer…” said Alber-K
The track holds a blend of authentic and electronic elements, a blend that Alber-K has perfected. Guitar hooks are paired with a violin melody while rhythmic and addictive basslines carry the groove, all combining perfectly to create a summer anthem that we can’t get enough of.

Now, over one month since being a six-foot-five, finance-working trust fund baby (with blue eyes) became indispensable dating criteria, Boni has finalized a collaboration with one of the most streamed DJs of all time.

The music plays out across three of the most renowned open-air venues in Europe for five days and nights of almost non-stop adventure that is punctuated with boat parties, afterparties, and an endless array of extras. From water-sports, kayaking, rock climbing, and quad bike hire, to bungee jumping, wind and kite surfing; from wellness and relaxation to the cultural riches, history, architecture, and cuisine offered in the nearby Novalja, there is no end to the fun that can be had at Sonus, all with local accommodation to suit a variety of budgets.

Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter Releases 6-Hour "CHIROPTERA" Soundtrack: Listen

Legendary Daft Punk co-founder Thomas Bangalter has released the soundtrack of CHIROPTERA, a performance developed in collaboration with the Paris Opera House back in November 2023.
Bangalter at the time joined the artist JR and choreographer Damien Jalet, with whom he developed the "unprecedented" show and commissioned 154 dancers to bring it to life at the dazzling Parisian venue la Galerie du 19M.
In the wake of Daft Punk's shocking 2021 split, Bangalter has actively worked to reinvent himself as a composer. The influential producer recently released his original soundtrack for Mr. Oizo's French comedy film Daaaaaalí!, which followed a classical album called Mythologies.
He's now released "CHIROPTERA MATIERE PREMIERE," a six-hour mix of the haunting, ambient music from its eponymous production. The soundtrack is out now via Bangalter's label, Alberts & Gothmaan, an anagram of his name.
In celebration of the release, Bangalter also revealed ALETHEIA 19, an impending "sound installation" comprising "19 monophonic microgrooves cut on vinyl and presented in a simultaneous unsynchronised playback," according to a press release. Part of JR's DANS LA LUMIERE exhibition, the project will display in Paris' Espace Saint-Claude from June 7-15, 2024.
Check out Bangalter's full soundtrack below. Fans can find the music on streaming platforms here and pre-order bespoke vinyl via the Alberts & Gothmaan Bandcamp page.

An Anthem Uncaged: Swedish House Mafia Drop Long-Awaited Single, "Lioness"

The hunted becomes the huntress in Swedish House Mafia's new single, "Lioness."
Prowling into a sonic savanna of swelling house music, "Lioness" arrives hotly anticipated. Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello had confirmed a mid-April release, but they decided to delay it after playing the song live because they "weren't satisfied with the production and needed to do last minute changes," the band said at the time.
After slithering in with an eerie flute pattern, Swedish House Mafia's production stalks forward with hypnotic intensity as Niki & The Dove's haunting vocals pounce on the beat, defiantly chanting, "You can't keep me down, I am done, I am furious." Together with its fierce, propulsive drop, the song conjures imagery of a badass feline adorned in ceremonial black and gold warpaint, eyes blazing.
"Lioness" is out now via Republic Records. Check out the new single below.
In other Swedish House Mafia news, the influential trio is heading to Ibiza this summer for a historic DJ residency at the fabled Ushuaïa, one of the world's top clubbing destinations. After performing there just once in 2023, they'll now return every Sunday from July 21st to August 25th for their first residency on the White Isle in over a decade.
In addition to the six-week residency, Axwell, Ingrosso and Angello are set to perform as Swedish House Mafia at Ultra Korea, Panama Open Air Festival and Tomorrowland's momentous 20th anniversary festival, among other high-profile appearances.
You can find "Lioness" on streaming platforms here.
