New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Primary Wave Music) DATABOY, a spontaneous combustion of everything you love to hate and hate to love about pop music, released their debut album DREAMS ARE GOLD. This anticipated album follows last week's successful release of their first single also named "Dreams Are Gold", exclusively on POP CRUSH, who gave the new track raving reviews, saying "The summer-y song fits into the musical landscape next to the likes
Calvin Harris and Dr. Luke."
The Austin, TX based duo, Adam Bailey & Cameron Maxwell, both 23 years old, have mastered the art of enmeshing seductive, Electro-pop production with exhilarating melodies and contagious lyrics. Put simply, DATABOY are hit-makers (not to mention, easy on the eyes!).
The new album DREAMS ARE GOLD has that high-energy, summer pop sound with crafty lyrics that get stuck in your head and is perfect to add to your summer playlist. DATABOY drew from a varied stable of inspirations to complete DREAMS ARE GOLD, including 80's synth-pop groups like
Erasure & Pet Shop Boys, which can be heard on the album's "Shoplift Your Love " & "Sweat Pt. 1." The anthemic "Just Once," easily stands up to contemporary smashes from artists like Karmin, Kesha, & Katy Perry, while the album opener "
Genius" has a Mike Posner-esque swagger.
This past May, DATABOY previewed a few of the new album's tracks on the release of their SUMMER NOW EP, a free giveaway for the duo's rapidly growing fan base. The track "8-Ball" was praised by revered blogger ARJAN WRITES as "one of those high-grade pop confections that easily fits alongside tracks by The Wanted, One Direction, and other current chart-topping Brit pop." He continued to note, "if this EP is any indication, "Dreams Are Gold" is shaping up to be a mightily exciting pop effort."
Prior to releasing DREAMS ARE GOLD, DATABOY successfully collaborated with a number of renowned EDM producers including a collaboration with the Dutch DJ Rune R.K. on the song "Memorize Me". The video premiered on VEVO with over 180,000 views and was also featured by worldwide-star DJ
Tiesto on his Club Liferadio show. Additionally in the EDM space, DATABOY have collaborated with Ferry Corsten, Baggi Begovich, &
Audien among others. The duo is also expected to be featured on the next single by European chart-topper Kid Massive.
