Come this spring, Claptone will unveil a brand new artist album two years in the making and we are shaking with raw anticipation!
Throughout the years Claptone has created a house dynasty by letting his beats take the stage while working from behind his mythical mask. As an innovator of some of the most eclectic rhythms in the scene, Claptone is preparing to unleash his second artist album this coming June, Fantast.
Claptone has always made it a point to produce musical delicacies that drive the body to move and the heart to shine. It is without question that Fantast will be one of the best artist albums to grace the airwaves in 2018. With a focus on new artistic expression and songwriting, the album offers up thirteen tracks that we simply can’t wait to dance the night away to.
Presave your copy of Fantast available for purchase and download on June 8, 2018!
While we wait patiently for the album to drop, Claptone is here to save the day. He graciously delivered the first single off of the album, “In The Night” featuring the vocals of Ben Duffy. A brilliant, upbeat, booty-shaking offering, the track oozes with pop flavor and intensity. Check it out on your favorite platform!
Stream “In The Night” on Spotify:
Fantast won’t be the only focus for Claptone in 2018 as he’ll be touring this year as well.
Claptone is taking his immersive ‘The Masquerade’ event experience further, with a tour that will take him across North America. Having built momentum over the past few years hosting events in Los Angeles, Berlin, New York, and more, his shows have become a must-attend for lovers of house music.

Here’s what Claptone had to say about the upcoming album, Fantast:
“Over the last two years it has been a great pleasure to work on this album as a counterpoint to the hectic world of travelling as a DJ. To lose myself when making music, to dive into and create my very own realm of beauty. I admit it’s a dreamy, a heartfelt, at times a naive and surely escapist album, but what to do if one – on the quest for his soul – develops a strong desire to go back to his roots, back to nature? Did I find myself on that journey? Rather not. But I found some beautiful moments in the green, out in the woods, out in the fields, under the moon and in the night, moments, which I want to share with you. And there is one thing I learned and now it can be told, I am and have always been a ‘Fantast’.”
