Dance music sensation John Summit recentlysat down with Zane Lowe for Apple Music’s The Zane Lowe Show. The two took a deep dive into John’s debut album Comfort in Chaos (released this past Friday via Darkroom/Experts Only), analyzing some of the project’s most notable tracks and production. The conversation provides invaluable insight into how John balances stardom with serenity, music serving as an outlet for self-expression, and how he has learned to adapt as dance music culture has evolved.
On Comfort in Chaos, Summit reveals the man behind the icon, injecting his usual body-first approach to dance music with genuine heart and emotion. Summit strived to push himself musically and emotionally, tapping into a part of his identity that might not be immediately apparent to many fans. Fans old and new will find moments of extraordinary beauty (and hedonism) across the album, which nods to Summit’s core Chicago house roots while touching on UK-leaning genres he loves like garage, liquid and dancefloor drum & bass.
