German music producer and DJ, Marco Niemerski, better known as Tensnake, is releasing his long-awaited album “L.A.”, this Friday, October 16.
A dance music pioneer, Tensnake first made waves with his single “Coma Cat”, in the early 2010s. Since then, he has managed to cement his status as a leading dance music producer over the years.
My album L.A. is out next Friday on @trueromancerec & @Armada!

Tensnake has already delivered 5 singles for “L.A.”, starting with “Rules”, “Automatic”, “Somebody Else” “Make You Mine” and “Strange Without You”. Speaking of “Automatic”, released early 2020, the German said:
“I have been impatiently waiting for this day to finally officially announce that a new Tensnake album is on the way. ‘Automatic’ is the first single and I couldn’t be happier to have it out now. The origins of this song go way back. It is a cover of one of my all-time favorite ‘80s songs, and Fiora and I recorded the vocals while we were working together on my debut album ‘Glow’ in 2013. I’ve always loved it, even though it did not make it onto my first album. So seven years later, I gave it a new treatment, reproduced the music, and now it’s finally coming out. I hope you like it as much as I do.”
In July, Tensnake collaborated with Miami based Nigerian artist Daramola for the vocals of “Strange Without You”, another single for “L.A.”. Speaking of the record, it is understandable that this production could be the most personal for Tensnake yet:
“I wrote it after a breakup and the idea was to combine into one song the excitement of beginning a new relationship and the strange emotional state you often find yourself in after a breakup. Daramola captured the vibe perfectly and translated it into a bittersweet love song you can also dance to.”
As far as sneak peeks into albums goes, this one has been pretty sufficient to put dance music lovers on the edge of their seats until Friday.
