Another day, another Calvin Harris record to soundtrack our summer. The Grammy-winning “Summer” producer has unlocked the latest single from Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2, an album that fans have been clamoring for since its sun-kissed predecessor dropped in 2017. Harris today unveiled “New to You,” a sultry, R&B-inspired cut featuring Normani, Tinashe and Migos’ Offset.

Over five years after its predecessor, the release of Calvin Harris‘ Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2 album is just about a week away. The last few months have been tantamount to torture for fans of the chart-topping “Summer” producer, who had been cryptically teasing the follow-up to 2017’s influential Vol. 1, saying back in March that it’s the “maddest album” he’s ever produced. And if its tracklist is any indication, he wasn’t kidding around. If the crossover potential of Funk Wave Bounces Vol. 1 was hot, that of its successor is downright volcanic. The tracklist, which Harris revealed today, is brimming with monster collaborations. Highlights include “New To You” (with Normani, Tinashe and Migos’ Offset) and R...

Calvin Harris eagerly tried to warn us about Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2. Aside from calling it the “maddest album” he’s ever assembled, details were few and far between as to when we could expect to hear it, and who else would be included. That all changed last week, however, when Harris dropped a teaser of epic proportions, revealing the project’s lead single “Potion” alongside Dua Lipa and Young Thug. Harris and Lipa previously made magic in the studio with the alluring “One Kiss,” a track that has since gone on to amass over 1.3 billion streams while solidifying itself among the most successful tracks on Spotify of all-time. Incidentally, “One Kiss” was also released in 2017, the same year Harris debuted the wildly succ...

Harris and Snoop Dogg previously connected in the studio on the sultry summer single “Holiday,” which also featured John Legend and Migos’ Takeoff. The cut was released on Harris’ groundbreaking hip-hop and electronic crossover album Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1 in 2017. The teaser of their follow-up doesn’t reveal much as to what the track will ultimately sound like, but its introduction certainly has piqued our interest. In the brief clip, Snoop is heard setting the stage: “Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, I’d like to we...
