Robert DeLong (US)
returns with new single
“soft boy”
.
.
Multi-instrumentalist, producer, songwriter and electronica sensation Robert DeLong (US) is back with a brand new single “soft boy”, a punchy-pop taste of his forthcoming album PLAYLIST OF DOOM.
Robert’s cleverly crafted lyrics are front and centre, illuminated by ear-worm hooks and cosmic synths. Talking through the meaning behind “soft boy”, Robert says “I wrote the track in 5 minutes. I wanted to remind men that it’s ok (and maybe ideal?) to feel emotions or to be affected by the late-stage-capitalist melancholy we all live in.”
Breaking out in 2013 with his debut album Just Movement, his track “Global Concepts” took Australia by storm, marking the first country for the single to reach platinum status. His affinity down under continued with show-stopping sets at Splendour In The Grass in 2013, Groovin the Moo in 2014 and a national tour in 2019, as well as a highly revered triple j Like A Version of CHVRCHES’ track “The Mother We Share”. With plenty of musical friends in Australia, Robert has collaborated with the likes of Flight Facilities and Peking Duk.

In the years since, his 2015 single “Long Way Down” peaked at No. 3 on the U.S. Alternative chart and became his biggest streaming track to date on Spotify, boasting over 170 million streams on Spotify and 30 million views on YouTube. He released two more albums and two EPs, along with several notable singles, including 2018’s “Favourite Colour Is Blue,” which featured K. Flay, and 2021’s “Did It To Myself,” featuring Lights.
His alt-electronica anthems have seen him hit some of the biggest festival stages including Coachella, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Outside Lands and Reading and Leeds, captivating fans with his dynamic, frenzied live performances.
Set for release later this year, Robert embraces a sense of raw honesty on his fourth studio album PLAYLIST OF DOOM and marks the first release on his new record label, Round Hill Records.
