Listen to the new album below.
British dance music titan Hot Since 82 has unveiled his long awaited full-length studio album Recovery, out 27th November on his own Knee Deep in Sound label.
Following on from 2019's '8-track', a project that was written during a period of mourning, Recovery is a similarly personal release, with Hot Since 82 describing the LP as a "healing record", offering a therapeutic release that enabled a more positive headspace. His first full-length studio album, the 13-track release is also characterised by a long list of star-studded collaborators. This is most prevalent on 'Body Control', Hot Since 82's latest single, which brings together cultural icon Boy George and world-renowned DJ and producer Jamie Jones. Combining deep basslines and George's instantly recognisable tones, the track captures the essence of underground music culture in 1982 - the year that Culture Club formed and also the year Hot Since 82 was born. Further head-turning collabs come in the form of 'Be Strong', a unique collaboration with Grammy-winning four-piece Rudimental that stemmed from Danny Howard's 'Lockdown Link-Up' on BBC Radio 1 that's enjoyed half a million streams since release, and the 80s synth-pop vibes of 'Naboo', featuring French techno legend Miss Kittin.Listen here:
