International DJ & producer Calvin Harris has released a new single, Under Control, a collaboration with Alesso that also features Hurts.
This track, packed with the same vibrancy & infectious beats he’s delivered on all of his songs, will be Calvin’s first release after chartbuster album 18 Months which chalked-up nine back-to-back Top 10 singles.
That album, released late last year has so far amassed well over 1.2 million album sales worldwide whilst his UK singles sales tally exceeds the 4.5 million mark.
Under Control follows on from a growing list of top musical partnerships, sitting alongside album smash hits featuring Rihanna, Florence Welch & Ellie Goulding.
Sweden’s hottest new export, producer and DJ, Alesso, is a hugely exciting collaborator on Under Control.
His debut single Nillionaire launched only 2 years ago and was followed by a slew of Beatport hits, chart successes with One Republic and ending 2012 being voted the Hottest Record of the Year by Zane Lowe for his collaboration with Sebastian Ingrosso.
The wonderful Hurts feature on the collaboration between the two dance heavyweights, adding a unique twist to the record.
Hurts have enjoyed huge global success this year with the release of their second album Exile.
After a sold out European tour and a summer of festivals, the band will embark on their biggest tour to date, The Exile Tour, this autumn playing across arena’s in eighteen countries.
Alesso takes his new Uprising Tour on the road across North America, to Australia with Stereosonic Festival, and ends 2013 with sell-out shows at London’s Brixton Academy & Glasgow’s O2 Academy.
Calvin Harris will also be playing a handful of UK arena shows in December, kicking-off in Belfast at the Odyssey Arena on the 18th & wrapping-up just four days later in Glasgow on the 22nd.
