UK artist-producer TCTS has released the intoxicating new single “Tearing Up My Heart” featuring Sofia Quinn today via Astralwerks. Boasting a classic house sensibility and soaring chorus that showcases Quinn’s melodic vocals, “Tearing Up My Heart” is a club monster in waiting. Listen to it now below.
“As soon as I heard Sofia’s voice I knew we could make something special, and I love how it’s turned out,” says TCTS, “For me this single showcases where I’m going with my sound, taking tougher club inspired sonics, and fusing with big hooks.”
“The day I wrote ‘Tearing Up My Heart’ with Alex Borel and Colin Foote, our goal was to create a fun beat to dance to with lyrics that felt a bit darker,” LA-based Sofia Quinn, who has penned hits for Fedde Le Grand, Kiana Ledé, JoJo, IVE, and Lost Kings, says of the track. “When I found out that TCTS wanted to release this song, I was so excited. I’ve been a fan of his music for so long and I knew that having him a part of this song would really bring it to life.”
As fans have come to expect from TCTS, a.k.a. Sam O’Neill, the new release offers crisp production and a simple hook that takes hold—and never lets go. It’s no surprise that TCTS has become one of Britain’s most reliable house producers, delivering soaring dance tracks, one after another, while performing at prestigious house nights and festivals.
When TCTS released “Lazerbeams” in 2019, it underlined the Manchester native’s staggering potential. TCTS has ranked among the top house producers working today since dropping his 2014 track “Games,” which broke into the U.K. Dance Chart. The producer has subsequently racked up over 150 million streams and glowing acclaim inside and out of the house music world.
Now, with “Tearing Up My Heart,” TCTS effortlessly incorporates pop into his trademark house machinations, giving fans and newcomers alike a reason to get on their feet and dance.
