Deorro Teams Up With Australian Duo SCNDL On Heavy-Hitting New Release “Sonar”
Since introducing his new “hard bounce” style sound last year, Deorro has hardly paused in his steady stream of successful releases on imprints like Panda Funk and Dim Mak. His latest release is the heavy-hitting “Sonar” with Australian duo SCNDL, which combines the best elements from both Melbourne bounce, hardstyle and drum’n’bass. Synthesized piano chords comprise the dreamy, digital breakdown that leads to a frenzied, high-energy bassline that makes “Sonar” an absolute dance floor slayer. “Sonar” is certainly not for the faint of heart, but this is one track that will be on constant rotation at festival stages and clubs this summer. SCNDL’s penchant for top-notch electro productions complements Deorro’s bouncy, dynamic style, so we hope this first collaboration will be one of many more. If you’re one of the many music lovers descending upon Palm Springs this April, catch Deorro’s set at Coachella and the Day Club at the Hilton’s pool party on April 14th.
American producer Deorro is the perfect example of magnetic dynamism in music production. His impressive discography including a myriad of original tracks, from his early hits “Yee” and “Five Hours” to last year’s “Rise and Shine” and more, as well as collaborations/remixes with Chuckie, Axwell, Krewella, Laidback Luke, Carnage, Diplo, Tommie Sunshine, and more. Last year, he took listeners on the ultimate journey with his incredibly successful full-length album, “Good Evening,” a 24-track pilgrimage that showcased many versions of Deorro’s style. “It’s more than an introduction to a creative mind, it’s a story of sound and feeling,” quoted Billboard of the album. His prowess behind the decks have earned him headlining spots at some of the world’s craziest festivals and clubs, like Coachella, Ultra, Lights OFF, and Electrobeach. Now with a renowned debut album under his belt and more new music on the way, the future is looking very bright indeed for Deorro.

Nicky Romero is back on Virgin Records/Universal Music with his uplifting Dance-Pop crossover single “All You Need Is Love,” for which he teamed up with Jonas Blue and Nico Santos. With three powerhouses behind it, one would expect this collaboration to be nothing short of magical, and it certainly delivers. Opening with soul-rendering vocals overtop organic melodies, the track swells to a euphoric, progressive crescendo with the chorus. Santos’s performance brings the hopeful lyrics to life perfectly, while Romero and Blue’s respective production skills toe the line between electronic and pop genres. Nicky Romero premiered the track earlier this year at Ultra Music Festival’s Main Stage when he brought Jonas out on stage, and its release has been highly anticipated ever since. “All You Need Is Love” follows Nicky’s releases “I Hope That It Hurts” with Norma Jean Martine, “Why Do I Call,” and “Nights With You” on Virgin Records/Universal Music.
“I really loved working with Jonas and Nico on this amazing record. They are both super-talented artists and are crushing it on each given occasion. Jonas has released earlier some of my favorite hit songs and is a master at creating emotional and heartfelt tracks. I got to know Nico just recently and immediately felt that his amazing voice would be the best fit for this song. When he recorded his vocals, it was an instant match as he perfectly conveyed the emotions that we wanted to send to the world. It was great to premiere ‘All You Need Is Love’ at Ultra Music Festival in Miami with Jonas back in March, and I’m happy we can finally share it with our fans and listeners around the globe” — Nicky Romero
“Nicky has always been someone I looked up to since I started producing music, so it’s an honor to collaborate with him! and Nico’s talent has been on my radar for a while too, so this song felt like the perfect moment for the 3 of us to collaborate and I’m excited to see what the world think of this one.” — Jonas Blue
“It’s an honor to be able to collaborate on this great track with two of my favorite producers – Nicky Romero and Jonas Blue. The song is a reminder for us all: Even when you’re facing great challenges and experiencing dark times, you should believe that brighter times are ahead, and you need to trust the power and the love within you to help you to get there.” — Nico Santos

After their release from January – “Anyway,” featuring RuthAnne, preceded by an almost two-year hiatus, the platinum trio Cash Cash is back with their deeply personal and yet hopeful new single “Bleach (Move On).” The song is a unique fusion of emo-alt and electronic dance music, unusual and yet well-executed by the veteran electronic group. With angsty, soulful vocals belting out lyrics about mental health struggles, “Bleach (move on)” starts out like an alt-pop song from the early aughts, but Cash Cash quickly weaves in their signature sound with the track’s upbeat progressive style during its chorus and interludes. Jean Paul, who sings on a Cash Cash’s record for the very first time, Alex and Samuel bear their hearts through this relevant and heartfelt sonic confession, one that will be a hit on the radio and during the summer festival season. “Bleach (move on)” is Cash Cash’s second release on Ultra Records/Sony Music after signing to the label in 2022. Read below what they have to say about the inspiration behind it.
“We once heard someone says: ‘Your problems are like holding a glass of water; it’s easy if you only hold on to it for a little as your arm is barely affected. If you hold on to it all day and night, your arm will eventually become very sore, throbbing, and numb, barely able to hold the glass.’ The creation of ‘Bleach (move on)’ was realizing that and finally learning to put the fucking glass down and to literally move on. Calling the last few years a challenge would be an understatement. Many of us found ourselves either running away or chasing something, or just lost in the shuffle. If you’re not one of those people, then God Bless as you’re one of the few lucky ones. For the rest of us emo kids, sanity is something we’re constantly chasing, and mental health is something we’re always running from. It takes addressing it face to face to improve it, and only after that does sanity become attainable. Writing ‘Bleach (move on)’ was our way of addressing it; continuing to hear it is our reminder and therapy, and hopefully, playing it for all of you will be yours.” — Cash Cash
