The Purple Disco Machine new album is official: COSMOTROPIA, his fourth studio record, arrives on April 30, 2027. The Dresden producer, real name Tino Piontek, announced it on October 2 alongside a lead single, “Test My Luck” featuring London singer songwriter MEEK, and a European tour set for autumn 2027.
What COSMOTROPIA sounds like
According to the press release carried by EDM.com, the record draws on cosmic disco and space rock from the 1970s and 1980s. Piontek went back to the vinyl his parents played at home, with names such as Pink Floyd, Alan Parsons, Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis and Kraftwerk cited in coverage, and combined that with his own study of early European disco from France, Italy and Germany. He told DJ Mag Germany that revisiting his childhood and the music his parents listened to was the starting point.
No tracklist or label has been confirmed yet, and “Test My Luck” is the only song from the album named so far. It was the first track written for the project, and reports describe it as a bright, driving mix of disco and rock with warm keys and a pop vocal. It only hints at the space age theme, so the wider album may sound different.
Why this album matters now
Purple Disco Machine follows Soulmatic, Exotica and Paradise with a record that moves away from straight dancefloor disco toward a more conceptual sound. That shift lands as disco remains one of the strongest currents in dance music. Over the past weeks we covered Dom Dolla’s Kylie Minogue remix at the AFL Grand Final and Gorgon City’s independent album Aether, and artist albums with a clear identity are becoming the main way producers build lasting careers beyond singles.
Piontek’s track record gives the announcement weight. He has passed three billion streams, collected more than 30 Platinum awards and won a Grammy for his remix of Lizzo’s “About Damn Time”, with songs like “Hypnotized” and “In The Dark” behind him.
Who is MEEK
MEEK is a London based singer songwriter whose writing credits include Rita Ora, Martin Garrix, Alan Walker and R3HAB. Her debut single “Fabulous” gained traction on viral charts, and “Test My Luck” is one of her highest profile appearances to date.
