Their debut album, Summer's Gone, was released later in 2012 to acclaim in the underground electronic music community. After their debut extended play (EP), My Friends Never Die, in 2013, they released their second album, In Return, on September 9, 2014. It was the duo's debut release on Ninja Tune and its imprint, Counter Records. In 2016, "Say My Name" (RAC mix) gained the duo their first Grammy nomination (Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical) at the 58th Annual Grammy Awards. A Moment Apart, their third studio album, was released on September 8, 2017. It reached number three on the Billboard 200, while topping the Top Electronic/Dance Albums Chart.

New Music: ODESZA - Bloom (Lane 8 Remix)
Lane 8 release a bouncy, feel-good house remix of ODESZA’s Bloom.. It is safe to say that Seattle-raised group ODESZA has had a pretty damn massive year. Their latest album, In Return, was one of the biggest electronic releases of the year, collecting a whopping ten #1’s on the Hype Machine charts, as well as performances around the world, including the Coachella Music and Arts Festival. One of the tracks on this album, the delicate and bouncy Bloom, has been honored by an absolutely stellar remix by producer Lane 8, also known to friends and family as Daniel Goldstein. The remix transforms the original into an absolutely banging house tune, using the atmospheric synth and vocals chopped from the original, Goldstein has added a quick hit of heavy bass and percussion to transform the tune into the perfect summer-house tune. It’s a real banger. Follow Lane 8: FACEBOOK
