Louis The Child come full circle with their new single, “Believe It” (with Madeon), the duo Robby Hauldren and Freddy Kennett said:
’Believe It’ is a real full circle moment for us. We first met at a Madeon show, and he was the first artist who ever took us on tour. It’s such a perfect song to make memories to throughout the summer.
The acclaimed Chicago production duo originally met as teenagers at a Madeon concert and immediately bonded over a shared love of jazz, EDM and indie rock. That blend of influences was felt in their earliest collaborative tracks. Breakthrough single “It’s Strange” with K. Flay caught tastemakers’ ears in 2015 and catapulted Louis The Childto the top of the modern dance scene. Five years after the two met, they found themselves opening on the European leg of Madeon and Porter Robinson’s Shelter tour. “Believe It” is the duo’s first collaboration with their longtime hero.
Madeon said:
I remember when I first met Louis The Child – I knew something special was going to happen for them. It’s been fun watching their career blossom!
When they asked me to collaborate, it felt like such a fun, full-circle moment. Making ‘Believe It’ was such a joyful, spontaneous experience. I hope that spirit comes across in the music! It makes me feel like what being a teen in the 90s must have felt like, that first wave of French house music.
