Second Single From 20-Track Debut

'I'm Listening' explores internal thought, anxiety, relationships, and human connection across a wide sonic palette that includes electronic, house, garage, techno, pop, and rock. Each record is shaped by the feeling and idea behind it rather than being confined to a particular genre.

Émilie Rachel's Dance Music Background

Her track 'Ego' with Zen, released via Selected, has amassed more than 7 million streams. Her releases have received support from BBC Radio 1, including Danny Howard.

REYUS' Journey and Recent Momentum

Based south of London in Dorking, England, REYUS began writing music at the age of 10, inspired by the late Tim Bergling. By 16, he had performed his first club show, beginning a journey that would see him spend nine years developing his sound across the underground under multiple aliases before launching his own label and company to release music independently.

REYUS has developed a reputation for his eclectic catalogue and captivating performances, with his music championed by Tiësto, Four Tet, Gorgon City, Jamie xx, Bicep, Vintage Culture, Diplo, Solomun, Mau P, and CamelPhat. His 2025 REYUS & Friends headline events saw him tour the UK and Ibiza, performing at E1, Studio 338, Ministry of Sound, Café Mambo, 528 Ibiza, and B Club Kensington. He has also appeared on line-ups with Maceo Plex, Groove Armada, Adriatique, Confidence Man, Basement Jaxx, and Sparrow & Barbossa.

Recorded at studios in Hackney, London, Dorking, and Ibiza, 'I'm Listening' brings together the different environments and experiences that have influenced REYUS' creative process. Across its 20 tracks, the album draws influence from Four Tet, Jamie xx, Bicep, and Fred again, while maintaining an identity shaped by REYUS' own eclectic approach to electronic music.
