Woesum Releases Music Video for “Pressed” From March EP “Protected”

Woesum, the pioneering Swedish artist, producer, and DJ, has shared the music video for “Pressed” from his Protected EP released last month. Celebrated by Silk as “an electronically-enlightened EP that we can’t get enough of,” the project revisits the trance, house, and eurodance music that shaped Woesum’s childhood and seamlessly blends it with his signature cloud-rap and plugg influences, showcasing his ability to push boundaries and create emotive, expansive soundscapes. He also released visuals for opening track “LLL” and lead single “Protected,” which earned praised from Nina Protocol as a “a surging, euphoric electronic tune that fuses new age spirit with classic trance bombast.”

In support of the new music, Woesum will embark on a 13-date headline tour of Europe and Asia kicking off April 17th in his hometown of Stockholm with stops in London, Paris, Seoul, Beijing, and more. Please find more info and full routing below.

Protected follows last year’s Paradise Tree EP and his 2021 debut album Blue Summer, which garnered widespread praise and featured collaborations with Bladee, Yung Lean, Oklou, and more. Renowned for his contributions to projects such as evilgiane‘s #HEAVENSGATE vol. 1, Kamixlo’s debut album Cicatriz, and Pretty Sick’s Streetwise, Woesum has also played a crucial role in shaping the sound of influential music collectives Drain Gang and Sad Boys. Initially connected with Drain Gang and Sad Boys founding members Bladee, Yung Lean, Ecco2k, and Thaiboy Digital through Sweden’s underground rap scene, Woesum quickly became a go-to producer for the collective. His production is heard on last Bladee’s masterpiece album Cold Visions and Yung Lean’s critically-acclaimed 2022 mixtape Stardust, projects that helped cement his reputation as an innovative force in both the rap and electronic music scenes.
