Listen to the teaser on Sound Cloud
After hitting the #1 spot at Beatport for an unprecedented third time already this year with last club track ‘Bad’, David Guetta is back, this time in collaborative mood, with aussie DJ / Producer Kaz James. ‘Rock House’ smash ‘Blast Off’ was written at 30,000 feet during a flight between gigs whilst the pair were touring together on Guetta’s recent Asia run.
It blends Guetta’s huge, electro house rhythms with classic guitar riffs amidst a series of Kaz’s melodies and euphoric crescendos. Set for release on June 9th, it feels tailor-made for the dance floor and looks sure to be at the front of the major players record boxes this summer.
Galvanized by a rugged, 8-bar vocal that implores ravers to ‘put them hands up higher’, the track builds with heavy guitar riffs before exploding into life with a thumping lead bass line and twisted, strung-out synth interjects. Delivering the sort of club pressure that Guetta’s and James’s fans alike are guaranteed to love, expect ‘Blast Off’ to make serious waves on dance floors across the world.
To coincide with it’s release, David Guetta has also announced he is to kick off his ‘FMIF’ residency at Pacha Ibiza on Thursday, 29th May, ahead of taking in a bustling summer schedule. To be joined by Daddy’s Groove & Showtek, it follows hot off the back of an epic tour schedule that saw Guetta play a sold-out Spring residency at XS in Las Vegas, as well further sell out shows in Miami, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Washington DC and New Orleans. He also embarked on a short Canadian tour and even found the time to play at Mexico’s largest dance music festival, Electric Planet in March.
As the only Ibiza DJ to hold two residences this summer, Guetta is also all set to launch David Guetta & Friends at Ushuaia on Monday, 30th June. To be hosted as a pool party scheduled to stay alive long into the night, expect this to recreate a festival atmosphere in one of Ibiza’s most infamous clubbing spaces.
Not content to stop there, Guetta is also confirmed to play headline festival slots in France, Germany, Estonia, Italy, Sweden, Iceland, Italy, Russia, Spain and Scotland before the season is out, in what’s shaping up to be another incredible summer for one of the world’s most iconic, globe-trotting DJs.
Kaz James has also announced he’s set to play alongside David at both Pacha and Ushuaia in Ibiza this summer, and has also confirmed he will have his own residency at Paradise Club in Mykonos. Having recently signed an extended deal with One Love Records, James, who already boasts remix work for the likes of Skrillex, Kaskade & The Gossip, as well as production credits for Macy Gray, Kelis and even The Neptunes, it’s clear that Kaz is all set for an equally exciting summer.
