Kygo Creates Music For Healing; Listen Now

Norwegian DJ and Producer, Kygo, has been dominating the Billboard Dance Charts with his latest release, “Golden Hour“. And while he continues this dance domination, he’s lending his skills to the power of healing, in collaboration with relaxation app, “Calm”. 

Kygo has teamed up with the world’s highest ranked sleep and meditation app, “Calm”, to curate an exclusive playlist inspired by “Golden Hour”. The curation features a spin on Kygo’s signature tropical house style, complete with a “laid back blend of piano, beats and good vibes”.

Speaking of the interesting collaboration, Kygo explained: “I think if you’re struggling with stress or anxiety, meditation is always good. Hopefully this playlist can help people who are stressed or anxious about something, and it’s a very calm playlist.” And while his playlist may be exclusive, he isn’t the first artist to join Calm in this series. Others from the music world include 5 Seconds of Summer, Above & Beyond and more. 

This past week, Kygo achieved a stellar feat when he beat out Lady Gaga as the artist with the most number of tracks from a single album to chart on the Billboard Dance Charts. While Gaga beat him out for the No.1 spot on the chart with her dance-pop album “Chromatica“, Kygo raked in charting positions for 16 tracks from “Golden Hour”, beating out Gaga’s close second – 13 tracks. 

The exclusive playlist created by Kygo in collaboration with Calm is out now and available on all streaming sites.
