Swedish producer, DJ, and artist Woesum returns with his latest project, the Protected EP, out now. Alongside the release, he has also unveiled a new music video for the opening track “LLL”, offering a visually immersive complement to his evolving sonic landscape.
On Protected, Woesum revisits the trance, house, and eurodance influences that shaped his youth, seamlessly blending them with his signature cloud-rap and plugg sound. The result is a dynamic fusion of maximalist synth breakdowns and deep, emotive soundscapes, designed for club soundsystems while retaining the intricate depth that has defined his production style.
The project features “Protected,” the EP’s euphoric title track, which dropped last week to widespread critical acclaim. Nina Protocol described it as “a surging, euphoric electronic tune that fuses new age spirit with classic trance bombast.”
Woesum Announces Europe & Asia Headline Tour
In support of the new EP, Woesum is set to embark on a 13-date headline tour spanning Europe and Asia, starting April 17 in his hometown of Stockholm. The tour will include stops in London, Paris, Seoul, Beijing, and more, bringing his boundary-pushing sound to a global audience.
A Legacy of Innovation
Protected follows Woesum’s 2023 Paradise Tree EP and his acclaimed 2021 debut album, Blue Summer, which featured collaborations with Bladee, Yung Lean, Oklou, and more. His work has been instrumental in shaping the sounds of influential collectives Drain Gang and Sad Boys, collaborating on projects such as Bladee’s Cold Visions and Yung Lean’s Stardust mixtape. Additionally, his production contributions to evilgiane’s #HEAVENSGATE vol. 1, Kamixlo’s Cicatriz, and Pretty Sick’s Streetwise have further solidified his reputation as an innovative force in both the rap and electronic music scenes.
