Zedd featuring Remi Wolf – Lucky
German artist Zedd has returned after a nine year break with his third album Telos and the newest single sees him teaming up with Remi Wolf. The track has been out since August but the video has just arrived.
“Lucky couldn’t have happened without Remi” Zedd said of the song. “Five years ago she wrote the first verse and chorus, but had no intention of staying on it. Earlier this year, I invited Remi to the studio to play her the Telos Album which changed her mind and she decided to stay on the song. We got to work on the second verse and it completely brought the song to life – no one else could sing it as amazing as she does.”
Imogen Heap – What Have You Done To Me
Imogen Heap has shared a new song, her first release in four years. It’s a song she’s been working on for many years and it reworks the melody of her most famous work Hide and Seek. Heap has also been working on an AI tool that will remix the song multiple times.
