Graeme Shepherd aka Grum shouldn’t need any introduction. But with a list of credits like this amassed since the release of his last single, ‘Can’t Shake That Feeling’, in April, introductions are necessary.

Returning with his own brand of sun-kissed ‘cosmic-electro’, Grum proves once again that he cares little about the critiques. Serving only to the good-times with a release of the brilliant but carefree single, ‘Through The Night’.

Future disco donned out in stonewash and shoulder pads. ‘Through The Night’, unashamedly 80s, is as much a well-penned song – Hall & Oates anybody? – as it is big-room floorfiller; All vamped up synths, rising riffs and driving electro-bass.

Grum’s vivid 80s referencing in ‘Through The Night’ hasn’t gone unnoticed by the video production house, General Assembley, either. Brought in once again to make a Grum music video (GA also directed ‘Can’t Shake This Feeling’), Grum’s music has inspired a brilliantly realized and hilarious ‘Brookheimer/bromance’ pastiche, which premiered this week on Popjustice.

“Through The Night is your classic, rough and tumble bromance. That age old cop meets cop tale. We were aiming to more directly address some of the latent issues that seem to be at play in a lot of the overly macho “buddy” movies of the 80’s in which the men appeared to always be much closer to their partner on the force than to any of the women they’re purported to be dating. One part Bruckheimer/Bay, one part Michael Mann and Friedkin. Throw in a bit of Jeff Foxworthy for good measure and there you have it.”

A producer whose tracks frequently win support from the likes of Annie Mac, Pete Tong, Zane Lowe, Nick Grimshaw and Steve Smart to name a few, ‘Through The Night’ is another Grum master class in dance.

Released 4th October, ‘the original sits alongside a full club mix from Grum, the ‘Swiss Menergy’ Remix and a remix treatments from Tom De Neef.
