PURPLE DISCO MACHINE UNVEILS NEW TRACK
Grammy award-winning DJ and producer Purple Disco Machine has shared his latest single, “Beat of Your Heart” with Icelandic artist ÁSDÍS, out now via Sony Music Germany/RCA Records.
Combining Purple Disco Machine’s trademark disco infused sound with ÁSDÍS’s magnetic vocals, the high-energy track is laden with danceable grooves, big synths and catchy melodies. The accompanying music video, directed by NDVD, brings all of the joy of the dancefloor to life intertwining love, freedom and fantasy.
Speaking about the track, Purple Disco Machine says: “I was sent the vocals by ÁSDÍS and I immediately fell in love with her voice. I wanted to release the track as a single and we later re-recorded it together in my studio in Dresden, which was really great.”
“Beat of Your Heart” follows on from Purple Disco Machine’s previous single “Something On My Mind,” his collaboration with British artists Duke Dumont and Nothing But Thieves. The track has so far garnered over 20 million streams and received a wealth of support from BBC Radio 1. The release also comes after Purple Disco Machine’s huge recent remix of The Rolling Stones’ track “Mess It Up.”
Purple Disco Machine has been at the forefront of a disco revival, earning accolades and chart success with his infectious grooves. His collaboration with Kungs, “Substitution,” achieved over 180 million streams worldwide, becoming another massive European airplay hit (#2 in Europe), and Gold status in Italy, The Netherlands, Hungary and Platinum in France and Belgium as well as being the #2 most played track on German radio in 2023. With an impressive track record that includes a Grammy win and remixes for a multitude of acclaimed artists, Purple Disco Machine has solidified his position as a trailblazer in electronic music. Having received a Grammy for Best Remixed Recording for his remix of Lizzo's “About Damn Time” last year, Purple Disco Machine continues to ride a wave of incredible success.
His recently announced PDM Paradise Tour will also take place in autumn 2024, with stop-offs at 13 major European cities.

About ÁSDÍS
ÁSDÍS stepped to the forefront last summer with her solo debut single “Angel Eyes”, which propelled her straight into the top 10 German airplay charts. Before, she scored a series of massive hits as a feature guest with artists such as Glockenbach, twocolours, 220KID, Toby Romeo and Daði Freyr, collected over 100 million streams and was certified gold for her single “Dirty Dancing” with Glockenbach. Born in Reykjavik, ÁSDÍS was already throwing her passion into her own song ideas as a little girl.
