“I think sooner or later everyone asks themselves the question of what they have achieved in life and what they will leave behind at some point.” (Michael Schulte)
MICHAEL SCHULTE looks back on six successful studio albums, eight top 10 radio singles in a row, well over a billion streams of his songs and videos as well as millions of enthusiastic fans who have followed him on headliner tours, festivals and rousing performances such as at the Eurovision Song Contest in Lisbon which he took a sensational 4th place in 2018.
The successful singer-songwriter is now in the starting blocks with his seventh studio album: “Remember Me” is the name of the LP, for which MICHAEL SCHULTE took a lot of time to reflect in peace for inspiration:
About everything that has happened in the four years since the last LP “Highs & Lows” and what he has experienced in his more than ten-year career, the arrival of his children - the musician is the proud father of two sons - and his family as a retreat to recharge his batteries . Successes, losses, friendships and decisions that have shaped his life, such as signing his contract with Universal Music Germany in 2021, are also topics.
“What have I achieved? What remains of me, how will I be remembered at some point?" - SCHULTE asks himself existential questions on the new album. With “Remember Me”, the North German is probably presenting the most thoughtful, personal and powerful long player to date and was able to delight his fans with a few foretastes:
The album's five singles have climbed into the top 10 of the German radio charts, such as the pop ballad "Stay", the 80s-inspired pop song "With You" and the rousing "Waterfall", a collaboration with the DJ and electro artist. Producer R3HAB, which has now reached 3rd place in the German airplay charts with 85 million streams.
The danceable track is not an outlier, with “Better Me” he presents another collaboration with R3HAB. “I love singing to dance beats and continuing this journey with R3HAB just feels good,” confirms MICHAEL SCHULTE. Just as stirring is the dance single “Better Me” and the poppy “Bye Bye Bye”, a collaboration with the German hitmaker duo YouNotUs (Alle Farben, Nico Santos, Aka Aka).
With this album, MICHAEL SCHULTE has probably presented the most varied and multi-layered record of his career to date - even live, you can look forward to an absolutely exciting show that will definitely bring one or two guests, all the highs and hits, great new songs and MICHAEL SCHULTE at its best.
