The song features Njomza & Daniel Allan
Louis The Child – the acclaimed production duo that has charted over 20 hits on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs tally and amassed nearly two billion combined career streams—team up with fellow Chicago native Njomza and Los Angeles-based producer Daniel Allan on the new single “Falling.” Available now via Interscope Records, the producers set the stage for a dreamy summer romance with lush, glistening, glitchy sonics as Njomza’s mesmerizing vocals capture elation and heartbreak.
“Falling” is the latest preview of Louis The Child’s forthcoming sophomore album and the follow-up to their early 2024 hit “I’m Not Giving Up” with Memba.
“We have this thing we love to do when we make music with Njomza,” shares Louis The Child. “We’ll write a song super slow based around some emotional chords, then strip the production, speed the whole song up, and reproduce with the song in mind. This was originally written at 128bpm and sounded like a slow ballad, nothing like what you hear now. We loved the songwriting, and when we got together with Daniel Allan, we played it for him and it was like ‘oh for sure let’s do this.'”
Louis The Child floats through electronic, pop, and alternative with wide-eyed wonder, adventurous spirit, and the elation of being present. Since 2013, the Chicago-bred duo—Freddy Kennett and Robby Hauldren—have popped off as a phenomenon garnering over 1.9 billion streams worldwide and being endorsed by pop royalty such as Taylor Swift and Lorde. Their hit single “Better Not” with Wafia is officially certified Platinum by the RIAA. Following the duo’s 2020 debut album Here For Now and their 2020 mixtape Candy 2, Louis The Child marked 2021 the Euphoria Era during which they released their Euphoria EP. In 2022, Louis The Child unveiled their project, Black Marble, a 17-track instrumental tape that explores the duo’s clubbier sensibilities, functions as a seamless DJ set, and is accompanied by film noir-inspired visuals. In 2023, Louis The Child delivered a slew of incredible singles including “Daybreak” with Zachary Knowles, “Walls” with Claire Rosinkranz, “How High,” and “Stay With Me” with Absolutely, and secured a residency at the Resorts World in Las Vegas, which they will be continuing in 2024. This year will bring tons of new music and live shows from Louis The Child, as they continue to prove themselves as one of the most exciting acts in dance music.
Architects of sound design and voyagers of unexplored realities, the Brooklyn-based production duo Memba has steadily elevated their status over the past few years by crafting electronic music that is propped up by a rich tapestry of ancient world rhythms. Memba charted globally with their song “For Aisha,” a tribute to Ishaan’s sister. The past few years have seen Memba play EDC, Coachella, Bonnaroo, Electric Forest, Shambhala, Ultra, and Glastonbury, to name a few. They have supported Odesza, Jai Wolf, Hermitude, and Clozee on tour, priming them for their own debut headline run in 2022. Now, fresh off the heels of their self-released East Meets West EP in December 2023, Memba is looking ahead to a new year filled with more music and transportive shows that will bring both new and current fans alike into their artistically arcane world.
