Zuezeu steps into the light with "Weightless" — his brightest, most open-sounding record yet

Warm chords, driving percussion, a vocal built around one repeated plea, and a music video shot entirely in Hawaii: the Hollywood producer trades late-night tension for daytime release.


If "GO" was about attitude and pressure, "Weightless" is about the opposite — and the contrast is the point. Zuezeu's new single, out now, is the brightest, most open-sounding record he has put his name to: warm chords, driving percussion, and a vocal that circles one repeated plea — take me back — with the kind of emotional directness that his previous release deliberately avoided. Where "GO" operated in the darker, peak-time end of his sound, "Weightless" trades the late-night floor for the daytime main stage, swapping tension and attitude for release and openness without losing the groove that runs through everything he makes. The feeling at the centre of the track is a specific and familiar one: a moment when everything was light, free, and safe, and the pull to return to it. It's a universal sentiment, and "Weightless" carries it with a warmth and accessibility that marks a clear new direction for the Hollywood-based producer.

The music video extends that spirit into the visual world. Filmed entirely in Hawaii, it leans on the islands' natural scenery — dramatic coastlines, clear water, volcanic landscapes — rather than heavy production or effects, letting the environment carry the escapist energy the song is built around. It's a straightforward creative choice that trusts the material, and it works precisely because of that simplicity. "Weightless" also arrives as part of Rockstars & Angels, the community founded by Zuezeu alongside Jaden Bojsen that opens up the reality of building a career in dance music — documenting everything from studio sessions and songwriting to life on the road, and using that transparency to encourage fans to chase their own ambitions. For an artist who has played mainstage at EDC Las Vegas 2024, sold out Parq Nightclub in San Diego, and taken his music to Tokyo and Seoul since debuting in 2020, the platform is growing — and "Weightless" is the kind of record that grows it further.
