HUGEL & Diplo Team Up for New Song “Forever” featuring Malou & Yuna
French DJ HUGEL and American DJ Diplo teamed up again to release a new song “Forever” on September 20, 2024.
This marks the first collaboration since the 2023 “Stay High” featuring London-based singer-songwriter Julia Church.
The song features Hamburg-Los Angeles based singer-songwriter Malou and Malaysian singer-songwriter Yuna.
The original version of the song was released by Canadian electronic dance music duo Adventure Club in 2016, who performed at Ultra Music Festival 2014.
This time, HUGEL and Diplo created a house track version of the song.
The track was written by Chris Braide, Florent Hugel, Thomas Wesley Pentz, and Yunalis Zarai. Produced by Diplo, HUGEL, and Kamil Laskowski.- HUGEL said of the song, “This original version of 'Forever' (by Adventure Club) was the anthem of Ultra Music Festival 2014, which was also my first time performing at the festival in Miami. This track has stayed with me over the years and holds a lot of memories around this moment. So, when I was looking for a new sample, I realized no one had produced a house track version of this song, so I decided I would be the one to do it. While Diplo and I send each other music all the time, Malou actually first introduced the demo to him during a studio session they were doing together. I then sent him my first version of the song, which he tested out during his Antarctic set - the response was big, so many people were asking about the track. From there, we worked through a couple of modifications, and now it's ready to share with the world.”
