Marshmello & Dove Cameron Team Up for New Song “Other Boys”
American DJ Marshmello teamed up with American actress and singer-songwriter Dove Cameron to release a new song “Other Boys” on September 8, 2023.
This marks the first collaboration between Marshmello and Dove Cameron.
The song samples Australian DJ duo Flight Facilities' 2010 single “Crave You”.
The track was written by Evan Blair, Sarah 'Solly' Solovay, Grace Barker, James Nathan Lyell, Hugo Stuart Gruzman, Giselle Rosselli, Nicholas James Gale, and Everett Romano. Produced by Evan Blair, Heavy Mellow, and Nick Gale
The accompanying animated music video was directed by Noah Sterling.
“It was a really meaningful song that marked a big part of my adolescence, and I just knew that Marshmello was going to have that right sort of approach to the nostalgia of the track while also bringing freshness and a danceability,” Dove Cameron told USA TODAY about the song. “He’s got such a touch and such a balance, and it turned out better than I could have ever imagined.”- She continued, “There’s something about melancholy that I think is really present for people these days especially, and I really aspire to be able to tell stories and make relatable music while also having it feel a bit romantic. Maybe making it danceable, maybe making it feel very human - something that’s just a part of the water that we swim in rather than a big melancholic chapter.”
