LOVE REMAIN’s music explores the geography of everyday life. The UK producer makes transfixing and poetic dance music that’s suffused with the sounds of people and place: field recordings of London life, birdsong from the city’s green spaces, nightclub conversations that fade like embers. The vibrant and the vulnerable, the miraculous and the mundane – these all appear in Love Remain’s music with the quality of a dream or mirage. His productions are primed for dancefloors and festivals, but through the use of atmospheric space, he also leaves room for reflection. He describes ambient music as “a blank canvas for your memories”, able to evoke the personal recollections and individual desires of the listener in a way that is both extremely specific yet evocative enough to feel universal.

In February Love Remain release – Is What It Is (EP) via Black Butter Records – a classic representation of his compassionate storytelling, lead single ‘LDN GRLS’ is a deeply emotive 2-step bubbler with a distinctly London flavour, featuring the vocals of Gbyg – Love Remain’s friend Gboyega Odubanjo – who was the beloved, award-winning poet who tragically passed away after he went missing at Shambala Festival in 2023. An everlasting tribute to the gifted poet, the track’s release comes with the support from Odubanjo’s close friends and family, who appear in the track’s empowering music video and leant advice on the creative process.
