CYRUS - Where Did U Go [Purple Tea Records]
**CANCON**
Canadian electronic DJ/Producer CYRUS unleashes ‘Where Did U Go,’ a Bass focused Tech House banger for fans of Eli Brown, Marten Hørger, and Bijou. With almost 2 million streams across platforms, CYRUS has garnered support from Spotify, Spinnin’ Records, Nicky Romero, and a Tomorrowland One World Radio feature. His previous releases hit #1 on Beatport UK Garage/Bassline Releases and saw tracks peak at #31 in the Beatport Bass House Top 100, and he has shared stages with Maddix, Moksi, and Wuki.
Hark, ye lords and ladies of the nocturnal groove, cast your ears upon the majestic Where Did U Go by CYRUS—a Bass House and Tech House juggernaut that barrels through the night like a runaway streetcar rave in the heart of Toronto! Envision, if you will, a master alchemist at the decks, distilling a thunderous bassline so potent it could rouse a maple tree to boogie, paired with vocals so devilishly catchy they cling to your soul like syrup to a pancake. This track, dear revelers, is a dancefloor sorcery, its low-end hooks weaving a spell that transforms any club into a pulsating coliseum of rhythm, where the very air hums, “Oh, mon cher, where did YOU go when the beat dropped?” Crafted with CYRUS’s signature flair, this sonic potion is primed for sweat-soaked, starlit nights, a guaranteed groover that commands you to strut, sway, and surrender to its cheeky, electrified charm.

The universe works in mysterious ways.
It's 2017; Justin Blanc (Justin Rodrigue) was a budding artist from Quebec City and Montreal's Camille (Camille Hamel) is fresh off a release with Toolroom. The pair of them exchanging pleasantries and plan to meet up at the upcoming ADE. Four flights, countless drinks, and zero nights of sleep between the two of them; their plans to meet up in Amsterdam take a swim in the canals.
The very Tuesday they get back Camille is in Montreal, Canada's second-biggest city which is about a 3-hour drive from the province's sleepier capital. "Let's meet up..." Justin tells Cam. Cam starts licking his fingers and flipping through his calendar. "No, today" say's Justin. That's the drive, pun intended, that "Just" has towards his work and this label. Tomorrow is too late. Today, now. With Justin Rome would have been built in a day. They meet up in an undisclosed, super studio that few have ever had the privilege of setting foot in (Camille's parents' basement studio, cough cough).
The pair immediately click.
"It was like I just met someone who I've known for years". The aim of their first meeting was to make music... and music they did not make. "If I were to make you listen to the project files of our fist collaboration you would have to burn my computer," Camille says. "We were to busy in our talks, our conversations, our respect, he was the Yin to my Yang, we complemented each other in ways I didn't think were possible in this industry, and this from day one."
Fast forward two ADE's, some legal paperwork, countless shows, two labels, four artist projects. The duo feels like an unstoppable force when leaning on each other. Their third silent partner gels in perfectly as someone who gives thumbs or thumbs down to their ideas and is more than willing to travel with them when the occasions occur... Purple Tea is more than a label, it's a friendship, it's a meeting place, it's relationships with artists. The label bosses understand that's what made the label what it is in the first place.
For that reason, the Purple Tea family had a new child in 2020, bringing into this world their BLK Leaf imprint. The latter was to expand into the more niche yet growing genres of the underground. They were making so many new relationships and receiving so many demos that they loved but couldn't sign previously that it was just a matter of time before BLK Leaf would take shape.
Some of the Labels' highlights thus far include:
Over 1.5m streams on Spotify as well as many placements on editorial playlists (Housewerk, Groove Theory, Friday Crate Diggers, and many more)
Support from Martin Garrix, Sam Divine, Ben Malone, Kryder, Crazibiza, Demuir, Kiss FM UK, weekly shows on Virgin Radio Montreal with Vito-V and many others.
Numerous top ten's on Traxsource.
Their first ADE showcase in 2019
A live show in Montreal with Angelo Ferreri as the headliner.
Really awesome stories to tell at the dinner table.
Purple Tea is Canada's most exciting dance label at the moment, and that momentum is just starting to grow. Expect big things from them, they are in the business of delivering results.
