GRAMMY Nominees Robin Schulz and Steve Aoki Join Forces for Very First Time on “Bloodtype” with LAWRENT
Robin Schulz and Steve Aoki have collaborated on a new track “Bloodtype,” out now. The song features the London-based producer LAWRENT, known for his unique sound. “Bloodtype” is an energetic club track that showcases a darker electronic vibe from Schulz. It follows his previous release “Freaking You Out” with NERVO and incorporates Aoki‘s dynamic energy and LAWRENT‘s sound design into its production. The track has an intense sound characterized by strong bass lines and fast beats, creating a thrilling atmosphere reminiscent of a nightclub.
Lyrically, “Bloodtype” captures the excitement of a club scene, featuring lines that express a connection between individuals on the dance floor. It includes the catchy hook, “Imma give you my bloodtype / Baby, you’re just my bloodtype,” and suggests an impulsive night out rather than a romantic story. The vocals in the song blend a cool and commanding presence.
DJ and producer Robin Schulz is Germany‘s most successful international solo artist to date. Hailing from Osnabrück, a town of 160,000 in north-west Germany, he’s turned his humble beginnings into a global success with his distinctive fusion of house, electro, and pop. Schulz has earned over 850 international gold awards, surpassing 20 billion streams and 30 million sales, with 30 million monthly listeners on Spotify. With 15 #1 hits, he’s also the most-played artist on German radio. His electrifying performances have sold out venues across Europe, the US, Asia, and Australia, and he’s graced the stages of iconic festivals like the iTunes Festival in London, Ultra Music Festival in Miami, and Tomorrowland in Belgium and Brazil. A regular resident DJ at Pacha Ibiza, Schulz celebrated a decade in music last year, marking the milestone of his game-changing remix of “Prayer In C” that catapulted him to international fame. His megahit “Sugar” (feat. Francesco Yates) also crossed the billion-stream mark on Spotify, making him the third German artist to join the prestigious “Billions Club” after Zedd and Felix Jaehn.

In 1996, he established Dim Mak, a trendsetting record label that has launched global acts like The Chainsmokers, Bloc Party, The Bloody Beetroots, and The Kills, in addition to early releases from acts such as ZEDD and Diplo.
