Belgian house music icon, The Magician, has finally released his much-awaited new single 'Differences', a collaboration with Australian DJ and producer, The Aston Shuffle. 'Differences' marks the first-ever joint venture for the two seasoned artists and is expected to be a fan favorite in 2023 and beyond.
The track showcases the production prowess and melodic sensibilities of both The Magician and The Aston Shuffle, and it has an unmistakable vintage sound. The two artists' unique sonic signatures blend seamlessly to deliver a stunning, genre-defying track that pushes the boundaries of contemporary electronic music.
The single is further elevated by singer/songwriter remy, who has previously worked with The Chainsmokers, Tate McRae, and Anitta. The Aston Shuffle expressed his excitement about the collaboration, saying, "I've released a lot of music on Potion over the years, as well as played a lot of shows with The Magician in the US and Europe. We always spoke about how we'd love to work on something together, so I'm super happy we finally found the time to do it!"
The Magician, who helped pioneer the confluence of accessibility and progression in the genre as part of the iconic nu-disco and Balearic house duo Aeroplane, established himself as one of modern house music's most celebrated names over the past decade. The Belgian producer is best known for his multi-platinum remix of Lykke Li's 'I Follow Rivers' and has been a popular touring artist, bringing a sense of surprise and magic to sold-out crowds at some of dance music's favorite clubs and festivals.
On the other hand, The Aston Shuffle is a name known and respected worldwide, having carved out a name for himself with hit singles like 'Stay' and remixes such as his rework of 'Heaven Can Wait' by Labrinth, Sia, and Diplo's LSD project.
'Differences' is a beautiful melody that took the two artists back to their childhood memories. The Magician revealed, "We love each other's work, and Aston Shuffle was the first signature on my label Potion Records. We shared some demo ideas and decided to work on this beautiful little melody. We arranged our beat/bass/chords/skills to the melody, and then in a studio in Brooklyn, we recorded the singer Remy, who added his own vibe to it."
'Differences' is a powerful and nostalgic track that blends the old with the new, pushing the boundaries of modern electronic music. The Magician and The Aston Shuffle have set the bar high with their first collaboration, and fans eagerly anticipate what they have in store next.
