March 23rd, 2020 – Singapore – In the midst of the unknown and dreary, Waterparks fans have something to be excited about.
The band has teamed up with MC4D on a new remix of their hit song “Dream Boy”, which fans can stream now at this link: www.smarturl.it/DBremix
MC4D is a production duo consisting of twin brothers Matt and Chris Drake, who have begun to establish themselves as label remix staples with their work over the past two years. Since the creation of MC4D in 2018, the brothers have released official remixes for Justin Caruso, Frank Walker, Ryan Riback, NEIKED, FRND, Youngr, Wrabel, Tep No, Jocelyn Alice, and Anna Clendening among others.
“Dream Boy” is taken from Waterparks’ latest and widely successful album, ‘FANDOM’, which was released last year through Hopeless Records. Produced by Zakk Cervini (Poppy, Yungblud, nothing, nowhere.), the album is an adventurous, exciting collection of songs that show lead singer Awsten Knight as a multi-dimensional artist with a lot to say and reflect on. Speaking to the themes of the album, Awsten shares, “We talked about music culture and fandom culture, how those things affect me, where I am mentally, and even a little bit about those relationships. A lot of the stuff that is more ‘heartbreak’ centered is coming from a more confident place than a self-pitying view. That’s why this is my favorite stuff we’ve done.”
Starting off with the brutally honest critique of fandom and success with the unfiltered and unmitigated, “Watch What Happens Next” and following up three days later with the deeply personal and wonderful pop of “Dream Boy”, Waterparks erupted into summer with the directorial debuts of Awsten Knight and historic adds to Sirius XM, Radio Disney, and MTV. The song is currently on the Sirius XM Hits Top 20 chart and rising at Pop radio (#70 this week). Buoyed by additional single releases “[Reboot]” and fan favorite “High Definition”, the band enjoyed over five global Twitter Top 10 trending hashtags throughout the album roll-out.
‘FANDOM’ is out now. Fans can stream or purchase the album at smarturl.it/waterparksfandom.
