Off the back of his forthcoming album announcement, SG Lewis has today shared his new single ‘Sugar’, featuring close-collaborator and pop-provocateur, Shygirl. His third studio album, Anemoia, is set for release this September 5 via his own label Forever Days, in collaboration with Positiva. The announcement marks a pivotal moment for the London-born, LA-based producer, songwriter and DJ — following a string of club-focused releases and collaborations, Anemoia sees SG return to the centre of his solo artist project with a sound that’s expansive, dancefloor-forward and deeply personal.
‘Sugar’ delivers a sweet dose of summer, blending SG Lewis’s signature shimmering production with Shygirl’s magnetic vocals to create a summer anthem that captures the essence of euphoric, heat-drenched nightlife. It follows the whirlwind success of their 2024 collab ‘mr useless’ (300m streams), a standout track from Shygirl’s Club Shy EP that lit up dance floors with its sleek production and sharp vocal energy. The duo’s chemistry proved irresistible, earning widespread acclaim and club rotation globally.
Named after the word that describes a nostalgia for a time never personally experienced, SG Lewis’ upcoming album Anemoia explores his long-standing fascination with past eras of dance music, refining an emotional sound that draws as much from early trance, Balearic house, and 2000s electronica as it does modern pop songwriting.
“When I discovered the word Anemoia, it articulated a feeling I’d struggled to describe for so long — a nostalgia for times I never lived through,” SG says. “Throughout my career, I’ve often referenced past eras of music, studying them inside out to understand their cultural and technical history. In doing so, I started to question my emotional connection to those times, and why they left such a mark on me.
This album is rooted in the dancefloor, and even its quieter moments are shaped by Balearic sounds that are influenced from spending a lot of time in Ibiza last summer. I think a lot of the music carries an undertone of melancholy, even when it feels high in energy. More than anything, I want Anemoia to be a soundtrack to living in the present — to creating the kind of moments that others might one day feel nostalgic for.”
