It's hard to believe it's been almost five years since Zedd and Maren Morris released "The Middle." Feel old yet?
The two have now reunited for "Make You Say," a bubbly collab co-written with Charlie Puth and produced alongside dance music production duo BEAUZ.
Zedd said the new track "is the kickoff of a new chapter" as he records his next album, his first since 2015's chart-topping True Colors. Speaking with Zane Lowe of Apple Music 1, he opened up about the album's musical direction.
"My next big project is my album and I started that before the pandemic. I actually sent you a song that I was working on. That is a little bit darker," Zedd said. "The feeling of the album is going to have some happy moments and some hands-up moments, but that is still my direction for the record. It's going to be dance-heavy, but I'm trying to incorporate some of my early influences in the song I sent you, which is a little bit dark and twisted to classical music, which I'm remaking an old classical piece. So that's my next big project, but it's definitely going to live in the dance world."
