Electronic duo Bag Raiders return with their first release of 2023, sharing their latest high-energy single "Love Me Back" alongside announcing an 11-date US tour that's kicking off in October of this year.
Having drip-fed first tastes of new music in 2022 by the way of the dancefloor-centered "UR Heart", 2-step stuttering "Never Forget" and pensive, fast-paced "Letting Go", Bag Raiders now share "Love Me Back" in a continuation of their new sonic trajectory. Staying true to their ability to create technically proficient nostalgia and blend it with an infectious melody, their new track is a love letter to the club: a serotonin boost that is fast, confident, and full of maximum thrills to capture that strobing and shining dancefloor ethos.
Not many artists have had an impact in the way that Bag Raiders have had on dance music, both in Australia and across the globe. With a rich history of achievements already in the bank, their 2010 self-titled debut changed the game. A part of that record was the single "Shooting Stars" which experienced massive vitality across the years since its release.
Following the success of their debut, relocation to Los Angeles, and consistent tour schedule, they released their 2019 sophomore LP Horizons, which accumulated local and international praise. In this time they had also embarked on sold-out shows across the world and spent time locked away in the studio producing remixes for international luminaries Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Banks, Riton, PNAU, The Jungle Giants, and Crooked Colours.
Bag Raiders have always kept one foot in the club and one eye on the future. In 2022 they launched their own record label Broken Head, which marked their hyped return to their dancefloor roots. Whether that be soundtracking sing-a-longs at festivals including Ultra Music, Splendour in the Grass, and Parklife, or even becoming the anthem to one of the most iconic moments in the internet’s history, the duo are ready to share a new level of depth and intuition like never before.
