New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Fast-rising dance duo Joy (Anonymous) have released their brass-inflected new track "JOY (In Me All The Time)" via Astralwerks. This is one of their most ecstatic songs to date and a highlight of their incredible live shows.
"JOY (In Me All The Time)" is one of the brightest moments on the forthcoming Cult Classics, a rambunctious track that pairs a wobbling brass bassline with a giddy, lopsided house-beat that builds to a hypnotic climax. The song has been a staple of their 2023 live sets, including a standout moment earlier in the year when Joy brought out a marching band to perform the track with them at their sold-out show at EartH in London.
Speaking on the track, Henry Counsell of Joy (Anonymous) says, "'In Me All The Time' was started by Hugh aka
Brother Counsell with these bombastic drums and an other worldly horn line. The lyric came from the idea that feelings are in us all the time and even though they can be scary the feeling of them all is where Joy lies."
The release of "JOY (In Me All The Time)" follows previous singles "JOY (I Did You Wrong)", "JOY (404)" and "JOY (Head To The Sky)" all of which are set to appear on the forthcoming Cult Classics, which is releasing via Astralwerks on November 3.
