Steve Aoki releases his new single “Us” featuring country music singer ERNEST which is accompanied by a music video from filmmaker and photographer Val Vega, all this alongside the new LP ‘HiROQUEST 2: Double Helix’ . The track spans multiple genres, bridging country with Aoki’s EDM sensibilities to create a new and exciting musical fusion. Aoki on the collaboration: “I've been a huge fan of ERNEST's songwriting for a while so when I first heard him singing on the demo of this song, I knew this was the perfect opportunity to work together. Regardless of the music genre, his lyrics and vocal delivery work perfectly. Together we were able to create a song that feels authentically dance while maintaining his country roots.”
2x-GRAMMY-nominated artist and producer Steve Aoki shares his 8th studio album ‘HiROQUEST 2: Double Helix’ with collaborations from Paris Hilton, Akon, Ángela Aguilar, Danna Paola, Greeicy, Galantis, JJ Lin, Hayley Kiyoko, Galantis, Timmy Trumpet, and John Martin.
“I’m stoked to have this song coming out,” shares ERNEST. “We wrote it a couple years ago in the middle of Covid, and when we wrote it I knew that I wanted it to live in some capacity. I’m such a fan of Steve’s music, so when he reached out about putting it out together, I was ecstatic! The song brings together country and dance in a fun and playful way.”
‘HiROQUEST 2: Double Helix’ takes inspiration from both nostalgia and the dynamic sounds of contemporary dance, Latin music and more. It seamlessly integrates these elements with the diverse cultural influences Aoki has encountered during his extensive global touring, performing over 200 shows a year worldwide. The first 'HiROQUEST' drew from Aoki's alternative music and punk band roots. With 'Double Helix,' the story advances, expanding both the sonic palette and the narrative of Hiro. Aoki on the album:
“HiROQUEST is an IP I’ve created to tell these unique stories. On my new album, I’ve been inspired by the past and the present, with Latin and dance collaborations at the core. These sounds are staples in my sets around the world and they allow me to connect with audiences on a truly global level.”
