Hercules & Love Affair is an ever-evolving musical project, brainchild of New York-based DJ and producer Andy Butler. Since their emergence in the late 2000s, the group has become synonymous with an eclectic blend of house music, nu-disco, and electronica, often infused with soulful melodies and rich, emotive vocals. They debuted in 2008 with a self-titled album that featured the breakout single "Blind," a collaboration with Anohni (formerly known as Antony Hegarty of Antony and the Johnsons), which became a club hit and set the tone for their genre-bending style.
Over the years, Hercules & Love Affair has seen a rotating cast of musicians and vocalists collaborating with Butler, ensuring a dynamic and fresh sound that defies any single genre classification. Albums such as "Blue Songs" (2011), "The Feast of the Broken Heart" (2014), and "Omnion" (2017) have built on their reputation for dancefloor-ready tracks that are as introspective as they are infectious. Recently, releases like "In Amber," "Dissociation," and "Change EP" continue to showcase their signature fusion of introspective lyricism with beats that span the spectrum of electronic music. Hercules & Love Affair remains a relevant and influential force in the contemporary music landscape, known for both their production prowess and their ability to stir the emotions of listeners and dancers alike.
