The UK DJ and producer Sub Focus has launched a brand new album. Contact consists of 14 fiery, vocal-driven tracks with featured artists together with Grimes, Fireboy DML, John Summit, Katy B, IRAH, bbyclose, Poppy Baskcomb, Connie Constance, Inez and extra. Contact is out now by way of Casablanca Data.
Contact marks a step ahead within the profession of the artist born Nicolaas Douwma as he merges electro, trance, dancehall, and drum & bass into daring new territory. His collaboration with Katy B, “Push The Tempo,” landed Sub Focus his first #1 US dance radio hit, whereas “Go Back,” which blends John Summit’s progressive home with Sub Focus’ signature tempo shifts, has thus far acquired over 151 million streams globally.
The artistic route for Contact explores themes of retro futurism, area race period know-how and attracts inspiration from the Golden File despatched into the cosmos on NASA’s Voyager mission within the Nineteen Seventies. The album art work, vinyl packaging and imagery had been envisioned by Sub Focus and created with acclaimed photographer Neil Krug and design company Massive Energetic.
Contact is the fourth solo studio album by Sub Focus, following three British licensed Silver albums: 2009’s Sub Focus, 2013’s Torus, and 2023’s UK Prime 40 album Evolve, which featured the Gold-selling single “Ready To Fly.” In 2020, he collaborated with English producer Wilkinson on an album titled Portals.
In 2025, Sub Focus introduced his immersive “Circular Sound” present to sold-out crowds at London’s Alexandra Palace and Los Angeles’ The Shrine. He carried out his biggest-ever set at Glastonbury Pageant, closing out their IICON stage. Earlier this fall, as a part of the WORSHIP collective with Dimension, Tradition Shock and 1991, Sub Focus grew to become the primary ever drum & bass act to headline and promote out the long-lasting Purple Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. WORSHIP will carry out at Coachella and Extremely Music Pageant in 2026.
