A new track from the late, beloved producer SOPHIE arrives today, “Exhilarate” ft. Bibi Bourelly, designated Radio 1’s Hottest Record. The new single serves as another teaser from SOPHIE’s posthumous, final record, SOPHIE.

“Exhilarate” follows “Berlin Nightmare” ft. Evita Manji, “One More Time” ft. Popstar and “Reason Why” (featuring Kim Petras and BC Kingdom), which was also previously presented as a Hottest Record on BBC Radio 1.

“Exhilarate” was written by SOPHIE, Bibi, and Kennedi Lykken (Dua Lipa, Kesha). No stranger to confident, assertive tunes, Bibi (Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Miley Cyrus) slots herself easily into SOPHIE’s propulsive production: “Got my foot on the gas, and I won’t stop for no one.” It’s the soaring sound of two collaborators and friends giving each other a speed boost, carrying themselves to new heights together, a theme that’s central to SOPHIE.

Created by SOPHIE and some of her most cherished collaborators, the album was close to completion when she tragically died. Lovingly finalized by those who hold her closest, it will be released via Future Classic and Transgressive on September 27th 2024. (Pre-order link)

Known for her innovative approach to electronic music, SOPHIE’s latest works are a testament to her enduring legacy.
