Acclaimed artists Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Lufthaus have teamed up for collaborative release: ‘Immortal’.
‘Immortal’ features as the leading track on debut album from electronic group Lufthaus - the dance project of Robbie Williams and long-time friends and collaborators Tim Metcalfe and Flynn Francis. What started as a project nurtured during the pandemic, owing to the trio’s love for Berlin’s electronica sound inspired by clubbing days away from the limelight, is now — years on from its inception — a fully fledged player in the genre’s landscape signalled by the release of the album: ‘Visions Volume 1’.
Leaning into the album’s moodier, trance-leaning end of the sonic spectrum, this club-centric, piano-enriched production explores the darker side of the progressive genre, striking a perfect balance between dance floor prowess and vocal appeal with Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s iconic voice.
“Sophie shares the same love for dance music that me, Tim and Flynn originally bonded over, so introducing her to the project was a no brainer,” said Robbie Williams. “I’m so happy that anything from the past has been left there, and we can focus on what’s important: making music!”
“I’m so excited to be a part of this project,” Sophie Ellis-Bextor added. “When Robbie sent me some of the album a while back, I loved what I heard so when the chance came to collaborate, I was really honoured to be involved. Our song celebrates the importance of club culture and how important it is for people to get together and dance.”
‘Immortal’ is available now via Armada Music.
