"After a series of successful singles, French indie pop artist Dude Low is releasing his highly anticipated album, Ego Trip, on 8 April. On a hunt for philosophical discovery, Dude Low found his way to the album through expressing his thoughts on topics such as money, modern society, and vices. Ego Trip is a poetic journey inward as it offers you a ticket to the moon. Dude Low was inspired by artists like Voidz and King Krule to express his opinions – controversial or not – and seek a better way of life. The focus single on the album, “Sulla Luna,” discusses the disconnect between humans. “You feel me, when my body glows, I feel you, our tiny brains are linked,” he sings. Lyrics like this serve as irony against social media and its control over human communication. While every song touches deep messages, the production behind Ego Trip will leave listeners dancing – purposely designed to provide an escape from reality."

"Waves was born from a journey—physical, emotional, and existential. Burnt out and disillusioned, I left everything behind, wandering through Europe with no plan. In Barcelona, I began writing freely, untethered from expectations. The songs reflect that rawness, shaped by moments of solitude, heartbreak, and discovery. A ten-day fast in total darkness forced me to confront myself, leading to an acceptance of life’s cycles—ups and downs, light and dark, all one. The album captures that rhythm, interwoven with sound collages from my travels—prayers in Essaouira, blacksmiths in Porto, street singers in Spain. It’s a time capsule of experience, a signal sent out into the void. If you’re listening, maybe it found its other half. Life is a wave—ride it, survive it, and remember: it’s just a dream, just the play of light on water."
