It truly occurred. “Bliss” has been freed. Identical to with Swedish Home Mafia shock dropping “It Will get Higher” and asserting Paradise Once more this previous July, studying that earlier sentence wasn’t one thing anybody was fairly anticipating to occur anytime quickly, however this isn’t some early, merciless April Fools’ Day joke. We solely had a crumb of recent details about Years‘ long-awaited ID since mid-2019, with Matisse & Sadko reviving the monitor’s mashup with “Beneath Management” of their units relationship again ADE, which makes this launch much more jaw-dropping. However Years took issues into his personal fingers on March 22, shattering his social media silence by merely posting what seemed to be paintings with no caption, with most understandably flooding his remark part with questions of whether or not or not he was teasing “Bliss.” That’s precisely what he was doing and if its launch wasn’t mouthwatering sufficient, it additionally comes with the announcement that progressive home’s holy grail serves because the opener to Years’ newly minted imprint, 1937.
Whereas there’s nonetheless so many questions left to be answered in regards to the story behind “Bliss” and the way we received to its out-of-the-blue elimination from the lists of our favourite unreleased IDs in each 2021 and 2022, its arrival serendipitously comes nearly seven years to the day since Axwell Λ Ingrosso launched it to a Bayfront Park crowd in the middle of their Ultra 2015 set. And although it’s been practically a decade for the reason that delivery of the monitor that had beforehand been believed to be an Axwell pairing, it’s nonetheless overtly self explanatory as to why “Bliss” has a lot pleasure round it, with Years’ ultimate kind holding each single drip of progressive home perfection that it did after we first heard it in Miami, marking his first musical look since he linked with Corey James for “Eros” again in 2018. There’s no cause to consider that progressive home is something apart from alive and properly within the yr of 2022, with Years lastly slamming the door shut on one of many most-anticipated releases in current dance music historical past and welcoming in a brand new period of progressive home that he’ll absolutely do his half in breeding going ahead via his personal label.
