Harlem-born DJ/Producer and viral sensation Austin Millz releases Breathwork via Ultra Records after coming out of 2022 with his guns blazing. The six-track EP arrives with three major singles already out, including “Inhale/Exhale” featuring Sabrina Claudio, “Freeway” featuring Estelle and “Breathless” featuring Alina Baraz. New singles include “On & On” featuring Justine Skye, along with “Afterparty” featuring DESTIN CONRAD and “Familiar” featuring Duckwrth. The release comes just in the swing of PRIDE month and celebration of Black Music Month. With music and shows back in full force, Millz tries to capture the sensation of what a fresh breath of air feels like for everyone rolling back onto the dance floor in 2023.

“Inhale/Exhale” opens with sensual vocals from Sabrina Claudio. The duo produces a harmoniously seductive single that flawlessly fuses R&B and dance that’s a sultry start to any night out. “Freeway” then transports fans with a feel-good, upbeat track that’s complemented by Estelle’s vibrant energy. Together, Millz and Estelle create a timeless track that’s a flawless example of dancefloor pop. “Breathless” entices listeners with a sexy, decadent love letter accompanied by the tantalizing vocals of Alina Baraz leading to the EP’s lead single “On & On” with the soulful Justine Skye.

As the EP unfolds, listeners are soundly swept through the different phases of an unforgettable night out. Millz collaborates with two of the industry’s outstanding Black creatives on the two final tracks. Joined by the gifted queer lyricist and soulful performer, DESTIN CONRAD, together they create an irresistibly seductive track “Afterparty.” A song guaranteed to remain on spin beyond PRIDE month across many dimly lit dance floors; concluding with Duckworth’s flirtatious vocals and verses in “Familiar” to end the sonic night out and musical journey.

Breathwork beautifully captures Millz’s sonic range, displaying his seamless ability to bridge unlikely genres like dance and R&B. The EP pushes barriers and turns heads with its playful, yet refreshing bouncy and sexy attitude, as it showcases Millz versatility and out-of-the-box artistry as a producer/DJ while simultaneously highlighting the talents from his featured collaborators.
