Baauer's 'U': A Nostalgic Trip Through UK Dance Music
21 Apr
Summary
- Baauer's new album 'U' is inspired by his youth in London.
- The 16-track album revisits Ibiza house, bloghouse, and nu-disco.
- Baauer aimed to create 'super happy music' for the album.
Baauer, the UK producer, is set to release his first album in six years, titled 'U', on June 10. This extensive 16-track collection is a vibrant homage to the dance music that profoundly influenced his formative years.
The album draws inspiration from Baauer's youth in London, particularly the BBC Essential Mixes he consumed. It immerses listeners in the sounds that defined the early 2000s, including Ibiza house, bloghouse, and nu-disco. Baauer's explicit goal was to fill 'U' with 'super happy music'.
Ahead of the album's release, Baauer also unveiled his latest single, 'Better.' This track offers approximately four minutes of energetic Eurodisco, further signaling the album's celebratory and uplifting musical direction.
