    Today, multi platinum artist and Grammy-Award winning producer Purple Disco Machine has teamed up with Swedish hit maker Benjamin Ingrosso global music icon Nile Rodgers  and Jamaican rising star Shenseea  to release their eagerly anticipated single Honey Boy’. Listen HERE.

    PURPLE DISCO MACHINE, BENJAMIN INGROSSO, NILE RODGERS AND SHENSEEA DROP INFECTIOUS SUMMER ANTHEM ‘HONEY BOY’

    ‘Honey Boy’ sees the four musical powerhouses unite to create an electrifying summer anthem. Combining the infectious grooves of classic funky disco with modern pop sensibilities, ‘Honey Boy’ transports listeners to a realm of pure euphoria with its rhythm, vocals and driving energy. The single has become a firm favorite in Benjamin Ingrossos’s captivating live performances, who introduced the song as a special addition to his sets. Inspired by its underlying funk vibes, Purple Disco Machine added his nu disco signature touch to the track setting the stage for a collaboration of epic proportions.To elevate the single to its ultimate potential and to maximize the connection with disco past and present, Purple Disco Machine enlisted the legendary Nile Rodgers to added his trademark iconic guitar licks, taking the track to new heights. Completing the ensemble with her dynamic vocals, Shenseea emerged as the perfect addition, solidifying the track’s status as a surefire hit.

    Benjamin Ingrosso tells the story in his own words: “I came up with “Honey Boy” at a nightclub in Stockholm, carried away by the rhythm of a house beat that instantly had me humming along to what would become the chorus. That melody haunted me for an entire year. It wasn’t until I found myself in a Chinese restaurant, nodding along to a disco track, that it all clicked. It had to become a disco song. The song, shaped by a memorable encounter in the city’s nightlife, quickly moved from concept to studio recording. Once recorded, we all felt the potential the song had and that we had to add more talented influences to make it reach its full potential. I reached out to Tino (Purple Disco Machine) to see if he wanted to finalise it with me, which he wanted! After having gone back and forth and crafted what we believed was the perfect foundation for the song, we reached out to Shenseea who joined in and added her touch to the record. The final piece of the puzzle was when Tino got Nile Rodgers to add live guitar to the song, infusing the track with authentic disco-era vibes. On my Europe tour I have been teasing the song and “Honey Boy” has proven irresistible, compelling everyone to dance.”

    Purple Disco Machine adds: “Benjamin sent the track to me late last year and I was immediately intrigued by its hook, infectious melody and overall funky vibes. I just couldn’t wait to really upgrade and highlight the disco and funk sensibilities of this one.Shenseea’s voice just fits the song perfectly and really complements Benjamin’s amazing vocal performance. Obviously with an artist name like mine it is pretty easy to guess that Nile Rodgers is one of my all-time heroes and someone I always dreamed of working with. Legend doesn’t really cover it! I reached out to his team and was just so thrilled when his guitar lines came back. It’s the perfect match to this track and I could not be prouder to have my name with his on the artist credits. Just can’t wait to actually meet him.”

    Purple Disco Machine has been at the forefront of a disco revival, earning accolades and chart success with his infectious grooves. The track follows recent singles ‘Higher Ground’ feat. Roosevelt,  ‘Beat of Your Heart” with ÁSDÍS his latest #10 European Airplay hit following ‘Something On My Mind’ alongside Duke Dumont and Nothing But Thieves, and ‘Substitution’ which achieved over 200 million streams worldwide, becoming another massive European airplay hit (#2 in Europe), and Gold status in Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, France, Belgium and Hungary. With an impressive track record that includes Grammy wins and remixes for a multitude of acclaimed artists, Purple Disco Machine has solidified his position as a trailblazer in electronic music. Having received a Grammy for Best Remix Performance on Lizzo’s ‘About Damn Time‘, Purple Disco Machine continues to ride a wave of incredible success. The electronic virtuoso has established himself as a chart-topping artist through his collaborations with Sophie and the Giants on tracks including ‘Hypnotized’, ‘In The Dark’ and ‘Paradise’ as well as achieving numerous multi-platinum singles with the likes of Eyelar and Moss Kena. Alongside these achievements, Purple Disco Machine has consistently delivered a series of dancefloor favourites including ‘Body Funk’, ‘Dished (Male Stripper)’, ‘Rise’, ‘Playbox’ and recent single ‘Bad Company’. Later this year, Purple Disco Machine will be supporting FISHER at London’s Gunnersbury Park on August 9th, before heading on his headline Paradise Tour which will include sold out dates across Germany, Italy, France, Poland, Netherlands, Luxembourg and more.

    Swedish singer, songwriter and producer Benjamin Ingrosso brings his unique energy to ‘Honey Boy’.  With 850 million global streams across his catalouge Benjamin ingrosso reached the whole world. The single follows on from his recent track ‘Kite’ has amassed over 10 million global streams and 380,000 views on the official music video since its release in January. ´Kite´ has been mentioned approved and highlighted by Billboard and Rolling Stone. With over 17 thousand airplays across 465 radio stations, ‘Kite’ has made its mark on international airplay charts, achieving notable peaks at #1 in Sweden, #16 in Italy, #40 in Denmark, and #86 in Germany. In February, Benjamin Ingrosso was officially announced as Apple Music’s ‘Up Next Nordics’ artist, solidifying his status as one of the most exciting talents coming out of Sweden.  He is also in demand live and sold out 100 thousend tickets on his last tour.

    Shenseea has cemented her place as one of music’s most in demand rising stars. Revered for her confident, slick-tongued patois rhymes and energetic reworkings of dancehall hits, Shenseea has earned stamps of approval from The New York Times, The Guardian, Billboard, Missy Elliot and more. Having previously collaborated with Christina Aguilera, Major Lazer and Kanye West, Shenseea’s collaboration with Purple Disco Machine, Benjamin Ingrosso and Nile Rodgers promises to be a highlight of her already illustrious career.

    Needing little introduction, Nile Rodgers, the iconic musician and producer behind some of the greatest funk and disco hits of all time, lends his unparalleled talent to ‘Honey Boy’. With a career spanning decades, Rodgers – a Rock And Roll and Songwriters Hall Of Fame inductee and multiple Grammy winner – has left an indelible mark on the global music industry with his band Chic, as well as collaborating with a very long list of legends such as David Bowie, Madonna, Daft Punk and – most recently – Beyoncé. He was recently announced as the 2024 recipient of the Polar Music Prize.
