Hayden James & AR/CO Single ‘We Could Be Love’
Today, multi-platinum Melbourne-born, LA-based producer/DJ Hayden James teams up with electro-pop duo AR/CO to share their new single ‘We Could Be Love’ out via Future Classic.
‘We Could Be Love’ boasts the dancefloor-focused melodies and emotive lyricism that continues to permeate Hayden James’ catalog. The track is an arrangement of the vibrant house-pop that has made him one of Australia’s finest exports. Saturated with endearing sentiments, AR/CO’s angelic vocals shine against James’ euphoric synths, thumping basslines and percussive accents. Uplifting and anthemic, ‘We Could Be Love’ will have fans enamored with its cosmic and transcendent nature.
On the track, Hayden James says, “I loved writing this record with the crazy talented AR/CO legends. This song feels like it was made for the heat of summer with the super dreamy gang vocals and 90’s rave vibes. I’m really excited for people to hear this one.”
AR/CO added, “‘We Could Be Love’ has been on repeat since we wrote it in LA in January, it’s anthemic and uplifting. It’s something we can imagine at hot summer day festivals and equally sweaty night rave spots. Working with Hayden has been like working with a mate, he’s all Aussie charm and talent. 1/2 of our duo is Australian and it felt like a 360 moment for Mali, so we’re super excited to have this slice of nostalgia out in the world together!”
‘We Could Be Love’ marks Hayden James’ second single of the year following his recent hit ‘Do You Want Me’ with Bob Moses. Arriving with an official music video, ‘We Could Be Love’ sees Max Baumgarten return with the iconic dance moves that captivated audiences in ‘Do You Want Me’. Fans can expect to hear ‘We Could Be Love’ at Hayden James’ upcoming tour dates, which includes performances at marquee US venues like Red Rocks and the Hollywood Palladium, and appearance at Australia’s traveling festival, Grapevine Gathering.
Since breaking out in 2013 with ‘Permission to Love’ and going on to release revered platinum certified hits ‘Numb’ feat. GRAACE, and ‘Just Friends’, Hayden James has continued to be at the forefront of the Australian house music scene. His run of hits carried on with his ARIA-nominated debut album Between Us in 2019, and sophomore record LIFTED in 2022, which boasts over half a billion streams and was debuted at last year’s Coachella to a packed out stage, before he launched into a North American tour.
