New single ’Hot Gossip’

Hot Gossip’ is out today and is the third single taken from the seventh Louis La Roche studio album ‘The New Now’.

'Hot Gossip’ is a song for the DJ's. Don’t you love when House Music gets emotional and Soulful, especially when it puts you in a trance and lifts you up? There's something about that slight sadness but also pure joy at the same time, that you just can't beat. House Music can be pretty, it can be beautiful, just like any other genre of music. Louis found a vocal sample from a 70's record and he just felt in love with how playful it was. The song came together really quickly and within a couple of days, it was done. “It's the simple songs that are the best ones, and this one just flowed out of me.”

‘The New Now’ is released July 31st on Ever After Records.

New single ’No One Really Cares’

No One Really Cares’ is out today and is the second single taken from the seventh Louis La Roche studio album ‘The New Now’.

‘No One Really Cares’ is a motivational song for this strange time we find ourselves in. The original demo dates back to 2022. Louis had the chords and a rough vocal melody but it didn’t fit with the music he was writing at the time. When he sat down to write this new album last year, he knew it was the right time to return to it. He remembered a wholesome meme he saw years ago that stuck with him. It was called ‘2 Ways To Look At Life’. ‘1 - Nobody gives a sh*t’ ☹️ and ‘2 - Nobody gives a sh*t!’ 😀 It seemed like the perfect message we still need today. So he wrote the song about the ever growing negativity on the internet, and how everyone’s a critic but to never let people’s words stop you from doing what you want to do. Because ultimately, in the wider world, no one really cares, and that’s a good thing. The resulting song is rooted in a Electronic and Disco space but leans heavily into the Pop world. Louis originally thought the song should be pitched for a major label artist, but in the end, he fell in love with the song and it feels like the new and old Louis meeting somewhere in the middle. It’s just another palette that this album has, plenty more to come!

‘The New Now’ is released July 31st on Ever After Records.

Louis La Roche announces new single and new album

I Found You’ is out today and is the first single taken from the seventh Louis La Roche studio album ‘The New Now’.

‘I Found You’ feels like a new chapter. Sun-drenched, euphoric, and exactly where he wants to be in 2026. “I’ve been holding onto this one for a while, and seeing it finally come to life alongside these visuals feels special”, explains Louis. “This album took thirteen months to complete, and I’m so happy with the way it turned out. It’s Electronic, it’s Pop, happy and sad. It feels organic and alive. Joyful and playful.”

The album is about the absurdity of modern life. How we’re told it’s “business as usual”, while the environment around us feels completely alien. AI, misinformation, the climate timebomb, inequality and wars. Louis wanted the artwork to represent the feeling of being prepared for a world you don't quite recognize yet. This album is the soundtrack for those of us who are “clocked out” mentally but still “clocked in” physically. ‘The New Now’ is a representation of the power of the arts. Music is the expressive medium that transcends language and barriers. It’s the escapism and the comfort that keeps us going when things get dark.

“I refuse to let the state of the world get me down. We fight hate with love, and that’s what this album’s message is all about”, Louis tells us. “So much love went into making this record and I'll be sharing a bunch of singles with you over the next few months. I can’t wait for you all to hear what’s in store.”

‘The New Now’ is released July 31st on Ever After Records.
