Acclaimed DJ and producer Chris Lake is setting the stage for a landmark year with the major announcement of his debut album, Chemistry, during his historical Coachella Day Zero Campgrounds performance. Chris Lake rewrote the Coachella playbook with a first-of-its-kind performance at the Coachella campgrounds on Thursday April 10, the night before Weekend 1 officially begins. In a historic moment, he became the first-ever artist to officially kick off the festival a day early, delivering an unforgettable, high-energy set that set the standard for what’s to come. Fans were treated to an exclusive first listen of tracks from his upcoming album Chemistry, set to release independently on July 11 via Chris’ own Black Book Records imprint.
With the announcement of the album comes the release of its second single, In My Head with singer/songwriter Amber Mark, today. First debuted at the iconic Hollywood Boulevard shut down with FISHER, In My Head is finally here. At last, Chris Lake and Amber Mark give listeners the ID they’ve been screaming for.
The track showcases Chris Lake’s signature house sound, blending seamlessly with Amber Mark’s soulful, genre-defying style—an electrifying mix of alternative R&B, tribal rhythms, and deep-rooted soul. Tastefully setting the stage for the penultimate summer anthem, this earworm lands just in time for festival season.
“This album has been a long time in the making, and it features some really special artists I’ve been lucky enough to work with,” says Chris Lake. “In My Head has been one of the most requested tracks from my sets—so people can finally stop asking me when it’s coming out. It felt like the right sound to announce the album with, and I’m very excited to release a lot more music in the coming months.”
His upcoming album, Chemistry, promises to be the soundtrack of the summer, with additional singles dropping in the coming months leading up to the album’s full release on July 11. The first album single Ease My Mind has already soared to the top of the ARIA Club Charts and amassed over 5 million streams on Spotify alone, marking it as an early standout hit. Meanwhile, Chris Lake’s collaboration with Ragie Ban, Toxic, recently claimed the #1 spot on Beatport, further solidifying his dominance on both global streaming platforms and club charts.
As Chris Lake continues to push boundaries in both production and live performance, the momentum behind Ease My Mind signals the beginning of an unforgettable year for one of the most dynamic figures in electronic music.
