After a long desire to work together, Benny Sings and Polo & Pan released their Young Hearts – Polo & Pan Remix today. The remix is out now on all streaming platforms.
Benny: “When we met at the Outlands Festival in San Francisco a few years ago, it turned out that we were fans of each other and were eager to collaborate. I’m really excited that we finally made it work with this Young Hearts remix as a result. I’m hoping this isn’t the last time we work together.”
A Dream Collaboration
Benny Sings has always had a love for French pop music. A big fan of Phoenix’s albums, he collaborated with French producer Renaud Letang (known for his work with Feist, Manu Chao, Mocky, Chilly Gonzales, Nick Mulvey, Beck & Jamie Lidell) and achieved a cult hit with Don’t Sing, a collaboration with the French producer DatA.
The collaboration with Polo & Pan had been attempted from both sides earlier in their careers. Now, as the first notable result, they present the remix of Benny’s album title track ‘Young Hearts’, which was released one year ago. The perfect dance track – with vocals of Remi Wolf – to kick off the year 2024 on a high note. Is it already spring?
“We have always been great admirers of Benny’s musicality and amazing groove,” The French duo says. “His voice is full of mystery, and poetic nostalgia, and always sounded oddly familiar. For both of us, it was a dream collaboration and we can’t wait to get in the studio to work on more projects together.”
Benny’s 20th Anniversary Year
2023 was the most successful year for Benny Sings so far. His latest album Young Hearts, with hits like Pyjamas ft. Remi Wolf and Young Hearts gained over 20 million streams across all platforms. He played a sold-out European Tour in the spring, followed by a USA & Asia tour later in the year. In December 2023 he celebrated his 20th anniversary as an artist with a sold-out show in the iconic Carré Theater in Amsterdam.
