AR/CO & Don Diablo Team Up for “Solar Eclipse”
If you want to step into the future, you have to take a step into the mind of Don Pepijn Schipper a.k.a. Don Diablo. This Dutch artist and musician is a true visionary who doesn’t just stick to one discipline. He’s all about breaking boundaries and challenging perceptions in music, art, fashion and tech. Mali-Koa and Leo Stannard operate on the whimsical cross-section where escapism meets reality, straight from the imaginations of AR/CO. Now this powerhouse pairing of singer/songwriters and performers return with a new single “Solar Eclipse.” “Solar Eclipse” is the second collaborative single between AR/CO and Don Diablo following “Hot Air Balloon,” one of the most popular tracks with over 85 million Spotify streams to date on Diablo’s 2021 album Forever.
“Solar Eclipse” felt like a straight groover and Don knows all about keeping a record fresh and laid back. It’s cool to collaborate again together, he’s always down to shift things into a world of his own sonically. It’s a natural synergy when our two worlds collide! After how loved “Hot Air Balloon” has become, we knew we wanted to do another song when the timing was right. ‘Solar Eclipse’ is late warm nights, long drives and dancing with the people you love.” – AR/CO
“It’s been such a joy to see AR/CO grow from the start. Something magical happens whenever we put our heads together and I am super happy to finally have a big follow up to ‘Hot Air Balloon’ which is still gaining so much momentum three years after its release!” – Don Diablo
The new single follows AR/CO’s debut EP Origin Stories from earlier this summer, compiling several of their biggest singles to date including “Night Feels,” “Call Me By My Name” and “Cherry Lips.” “Solar Eclipse” reveals the next chapter in the boundless world of AR/CO. The new single, with its heavy bassline groove and popping beats produced by Diablo, features an optimistic cosmic performance from AR/CO’s Mali and Leo “Dancing under a Solar Eclipse / It doesn’t get any better than this.” “Solar Eclipse” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
