Marlon Hoffstadt Hangs With His “Party People”
Acclaimed Berlin-based producer/DJ Marlon Hoffstadt – also known as DJ Daddy Trance – will release his new album, Das Ist Daddy, on August 7 via Capitol Records in partnership with Goodlife Management and MC3. “Das Ist Daddy” – which translates as That Is Daddy in English – flashed across the Sahara Stage screen after Marlon Hoffstadt’s Coachella debut in a full-circle moment for an artist who had just brought 300 of his fans on stage with him. Now, Das Ist Daddy arrives as the album version of that same fan-first energy: a surprise release and love letter to his community, opening with the fan-powered anthem “Party People” and loaded with seven additional high-energy club bangers. Pre-order /pre-save Das Ist Daddy HERE. See below for track listing.
Released today, the infectious first single “Party People” samples “Move Your Body” – Marshall Jefferson’s 1986 house classic, which was later heard in the UK film 24 Hour Party People, set in the Manchester music scene – and The Puppies’ “Hokey Pokey II.” Listen HERE. Accompanied by the full Coachella stream, a documentary and the fan-performed “Party People” music video, Das Ist Daddy carries forward the unmistakable rave energy Marlon Hoffstadt has brought to dancefloors around the globe. View the official video for “Party People” HERE. Check out the documentary “Road to Daddychella” HERE and Marlon Hoffstadt’s full Coachella set HERE.
Hailed as “a global dance phenomenon, a defining DJ of the now” by Mixmag in a recent cover story, Marlon Hoffstadt will be performing at numerous festivals around the globe this summer, including FVDED in the Park in Surrey, BC tonight, CRSSD Music Festival in San Diego, CA (September 26 ) and Portola Music Festival in San Francisco (September 27). See below for itinerary. Tickets are available HERE.
Released in June, “I Like” with southstar was highlighted as among the best new tracks by Billboard Dance, Dancing Astronaut, We Rave You, DJ Mag Germany and many others. Praising his remix of aespa’s “Lemonade,” alkpop said, “”Marlon Hoffstadt reinterprets the track through his hard-groove sound, adding acidic textures, a faster tempo, and a rave-inspired edge” while EDM.com praised his “euphoric, nostalgic blend of trance and Eurodance.”
