Austrian DJ/Producer Parov Stelar Releases New Track, 'Toxic Lover'

Austrian DJ/producer and artist Parov Stelar is back with 'Toxic Lover', another infectious lead single released ahead of his highly-anticipated forthcoming album 'Moonlight Love Affair', set to come out later next month. The new original production follows up a series of singles, including 'Candy Girl' and its Late Night Mix from earlier in the year. The prolific stalwart's latest sonic endeavor sees him reworking The Shangri-Las now TikTok famous tune from 1964, 'Remember - Walking In The Sand (The Oh No Song)'. Out now via the talent's very-own Etage Noir Recordings, the newly reimagined four-on-the-floor offering is available to listen to across all streaming platforms.

The track immediately kicks off with the famous sultry vocal, paired alongside an expertly-crafted palpable tension. The build-up rises, and is quickly unleashed in full force as the bass drops. A series of rolling soundscapes, a propelling ambiance, and an enthralling intensity characterize the majority of the rework, in turn marking 'Toxic Lover' as a prime reimagining that stands apart from its source material in all the best ways. Opting for a more energetic approach, the original's slower pace is nowhere to be found as the anthemic remix takes the listener on a tour de force of sound. In all, it marks a pivotal moment for the multifaceted creative force as he readies for the eventual release of his upcoming album and accompanying European 'Venom' tour.
