U.K. producer Eden Prince makes smooth, summery house music drawing from disco, R&B, and pop. First appearing with a series of remixes and covers, he later made an impact with his original productions, such as the 2020 EP Memories.
London-born Eden Anderson initially made progressive house as Special Features during the early 2010s. Around 2015, he began releasing music under the mysterious Eden Prince persona, with a remix of Basement Jaxx’s “Mermaid of Bahia” preceding club-ready covers of songs by Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, and Justin Timberlake. For his series of covers he worked with visual artist Domingo Zapata, who created colorful artwork for each single. In 2017, following a mass of covers and remixes of artists including Clean Bandit and Shaggy, he offered up his first original song, a single called “Obvious” featuring vocals from Cassie. The track was subsequently sampled by Marshmello and Anne-Marie, on their platinum-certified hit “Friends.” After remixing songs by a diverse array of artists, including Jonas Blue, Toni Braxton, and Weezer, Prince teamed up with Kream and U.K. X Factor winner Louisa on the 2019 single “Ain’t Thinkin Bout You.” His debut EP, Memories, was issued by Axwell’s Axtone label in June of 2020. ~ Fred Thomas & Paul Simpson
