Sydney/Eora-based powerhouses Anna Lunoe, Mincy, and DEVAURA have combined forces for the first time, dropping a massive new collaborative anthem, ‘In The Mood’. Propelled by kinetic, 2010 bloghouse-inspired production from Lunoe and Mincy and topped with a sultry, magnetic vocal from DEVAURA, the track is an unabashed club weapon that effortlessly spans garage, bass, and rave. The release showcases a thrilling evolution in their respective sounds, born from a shared love of electronic music’s most nostalgic and chaotic era.

Reflecting on the track's organic creation, Anna Lunoe shares that when she and Mincy first met, they instantly bonded over their mutual love for 2009 fidget and blog-era bangers. They set out to create something with that exact brand of confidence and rowdiness, and ‘In The Mood’ came together incredibly fast. Lunoe praises her collaborator, noting that DEVAURA has more talent and spirit in her little toe than most have full stop, making the studio process pure fun and resulting in an absolute bop made for and by the girlies.

The collaboration bridges the gap between generations of Australian dance music royalty. Internationally renowned as a pioneer and revered voice in dance music, Anna Lunoe boasts a career few can rival, having dominated festival stages globally and shared lineups with the likes of The Weeknd, The Chemical Brothers, Sammy Virji, Confidence Man, and Dom Dolla. Mincy has similarly earned critical acclaim as one of Australia’s leading underground champions, making waves as a DJ, producer, and head of the Extra Spicy label while commanding stages from Fabric and Boiler Room to major festivals across Europe, Japan, and Australasia. Bringing the track to life is DEVAURA, who is rapidly carving out her own lane with her signature ethereal vocals, sharp lyricism, and innovative soundscapes.

Furthering Lunoe’s sentiment, Mincy describes the experience as an amazing ride to create an absolute anthem with two women she has long admired and now calls best friends. What started as a love letter to the 2010s bloghouse and electro era quickly transformed into the ultimate club banger. Mincy notes that she and Anna spent a few sessions locking down those classic earworm synth melodies before hosting a beautifully chaotic, peak-creative vocal session with DEVAURA to bring it home with her silky vocals. For Mincy, this track stands as perfect proof of why she loves working with women so much.

The release of ‘In The Mood’ arrives at a peak moment for the trio, landing just ahead of a massive international milestone for Lunoe. Fans can catch her bringing this high-energy energy overseas as she joins Dom Dolla for his highly anticipated 13-week summer residency at Hï Ibiza this July. ‘In The Mood’ is out now.
