Au5 returns to the spotlight with his new single, “Paradigm” featuring Psyuri, for his first release in nine months.
Since the inception of his solo project, Austin Collins, better known as Au5, has received praise in the electronic bass community for his melody-driven soundscapes. Producing everything from dubstep to trance, the producer extraordinaire has dabbled in many genres while remaining authentic to himself and bewitching listeners with each release.
After dropping his fifth studio album, Au5 released a handful of singles in 2024. He took a nine-month hiatus, but now he’s back with a new track on one of the hottest electronic labels promoting independent dance music.
Released on Seven Lions’ Ophelia Records, Au5’s latest single, “Paradigm,” features the talents of musical maven Psyuri. The songwriter’s floating vocals transform the chillstep track into a mystical masterpiece.
Lush synths and resonant bass make it the perfect lead single for their forthcoming EP, Earthwave. The joint effort, focused on hypnotic and downtempo bass, will consist of five cohesive tracks. It features vocal, cello, and piano performances from Psyuri as well as Au5’s distinct sound design, so listeners can expect an otherworldly listening experience from the project.
“Paradigm” is not the first time Au5 has released music under Ophelia Records. Some of his biggest hits were backed by the powerhouse label, including “The Paper Owl” featuring Arehlai and “Remember” featuring Seven Lions and Crystal Skies. Ophelia also released his latest studio album, Bridges Between, in 2023.
