The powerful new single is available now
Dance music maverick Gryffin and dubstep don Excision have collided for their highly-anticipated new collaborative single “Air” featuring Grammy-nominated pop songstress Julia Michaels out now via 10K Projects.
The song is an absolute behemoth of a track, seamlessly blending Gryffin’s signature cinematic melodies with Excision’s thunderous low-end prowess. Soaring with intensity, Michaels’ emotional vocal performance anchors the track as it moves from progressive synth leads into zippering bass stabs. Destined to light up festival mainstages all summer long, “Air” is a high-octane anthem.
“Air” continues Gryffin’s hot streak following “In My Head” with Kaskade and his 2025 edit of Band of Horses’ “The Funeral.” Throughout his career, Gryffin has collaborated with contemporaries across the electronic spectrum. Last year, Armin van Buuren, Rita Ora, and Elderbrook appeared on his third studio album Pulse, while previous projects have included collaborations with Kygo, Illenium, Slander, and OneRepublic. Aligning with bass music’s leading titan, “Air” showcases Gryffin’s proclivity for heavier styles of dance music and innate ability to inject his melodic signature no matter the genre. The song arrives in the midst of Gryffin’s headline Pulse: Phase 2 Tour and ahead of festival appearances at Lollapalooza, Lost In Dreams, and more.
