Built for both late-night closers and festival peaks, blending Y2K club nostalgia with a sharp sense of longing

Jax Jones continues to evolve his Y2J! era returning with new single “Stereo” featuring EMEI out today. The pop anthem follows singles “Bad Boys” featuring Rebecca Black and sooyeon and “Back In My Bed” featuring MEYY as well as Ado collaboration, “Stay Gold” for the latest Beyblade X series. 

Global dance phenomenon Jax Jones and American alt-pop sensation of Chinese heritage EMEI make a force duo on “Stereo”. EMEI offers up her commanding vocals to Jax’s thumping production, delivering a heavy-hitting new track immersed in Euro club nostalgia. 



“I’ve always been such a fan of Jax! So, when I heard Stereo for the first time I was so excited to be a part of such a banger of a song. The track feels nostalgic and timeless and I’ve been jamming out to this one for months now and I can’t wait to finally show everyone what we made together.” - Emei 


“Stereo” continues to see Jax Jones celebrate maximalist subculture and expand on his collaborative spirit. To celebrate, he did an exclusive set and live performance of the track for the very first time with EMEI from London’s most iconic landmark, the View from The Shard last night where they broke the world record for Highest Single Release.  

Reflecting his expanded worldview through curiosity, exploration, and personal growth since relocating to Bangkok and connecting with his own Asian identity more, Jax Jones enters a new chapter of collaborations and bold ideas. The Y2J! era is Jax’s turn-of-the-millennium-inspired journey into vibrant sonic landscapes that are both nostalgic and forward-thinking. Y2J! fuses the euphoric energy of early 2000s clubland with the intensity of Southeast Asia’s booming underground electronic music scene. Drawing inspiration from the high-energy pulse of Dance Dance Revolution, Y2J! bridges global sounds, blending festival anthems with basement rave energy while paying homage to his East-meets-West upbringing.
