Purple Disco Machine’s “Paradise” Album Is a Dance-Fueled Escape Hatch

The mundane melts away under the smoldering grooves of Purple Disco Machine's music in his stunning new album, Paradise.

Out now via Sony Music, Paradise is the Grammy-winning producer's most evocative body of work yet. The electric tingle of anticipation before a first kiss, the warmth of sunshine on bare skin, the effervescent laughter of a shared inside joke—the album is a passport to those experiences.

Through 15 tracks and bubbly collaborations with Nile Rodgers, Metronomy, Duke Dumont and more, PDM offers his interpretations of what it means to truly feel alive. There's no skips here, just dopamine-fueled nu-disco with a retro touch.

A surefire highlight comes with the synth-soaked "Bad Company," a track with enough cowbells to finally satisfy Will Ferrell. Another standout is the MORGAN-assisted "Can't Stop Loving You," where PDM dials down the tempo to drop a slow-burning dance-pop track akin to velvet curtains and cognac.

Elsewhere, his infectious melodies burrow their way into your consciousness with the vocoder-laden "Heartbreaker,” a funky collaboration with Chromeo. The same goes for "All My Life," a walk-on-air disco anthem that fires up the nostalgia machine to a time when the genre ruled the night, but with a contemporary twist that keeps it fresh and relevant.

Purple Disco Machine is now taking Paradise on an eponymous tour in which he's performing with a full band for the first time in his career. The new live show is "like nothing I've ever done before," he said in a press release.
