It indicated a track that was rumored to be the first release on Lycka Recordings amongst Prydaholics. It listed a release date of October 30th. The track initially made an appearance as the introductory piece on the 26th episode of <strong>EPIC Radio<\/strong> before acting as the opening track of Eric\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hU-z3iV0LOg?si=doHefP9cqVRz8y9V\">Ultra Miami 2026 set<\/a>. EPIC Radio is the radio show run by the legend in phases, in March this year. A massive dose of vocals, unusual for an Eric Prydz track, at least in recent memory, gave signs that something unusually different from <strong>Pryda Recordings<\/strong> was coming. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" style=\"max-width:400px\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-11-at-02.21.42.jpeg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"734\" height=\"1412\" data-id=\"410084\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-11-at-02.21.42.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-410084\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-11-at-02.21.42.jpeg 734w, https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-11-at-02.21.42-156x300.jpeg 156w, https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-11-at-02.21.42-532x1024.jpeg 532w, https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-11-at-02.21.42-696x1339.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-06-11-at-02.21.42-218x420.jpeg 218w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 734px) 100vw, 734px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-another-label\">Why Another Label?<\/h2>\n<p>It is a universal fact that Eric Prydz\u2019 sound bank of different genres has a stable of its own all these years run by the man himself. The deep, melodic progressive house releases with the classic Pryda twist have a home called\u00a0<strong>Pryda Recordings<\/strong>.\u00a0<strong>Pryda<\/strong>\u00a0is also the alias he uses to showcase this category of his work. The legend\u2019s own distinguished take on techno under the\u00a0<strong>Cirez D\u00a0<\/strong>alias has always been displayed under his label called\u00a0<strong>Mouseville<\/strong>. The Eric Prydz releases were always dependent on labels that did not belong to him. The last Eric Prydz release,\u00a0<strong>NOPUS<\/strong>, saw the light of day under the\u00a0<strong>Ministry of Sound<\/strong>\u00a0label. Even the only Eric Prydz album,\u00a0<strong>OPUS<\/strong>, found its home on\u00a0<strong>Virgin Records<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s hoping \u2018Heavy\u2019 changes the earlier trend for the dance music legend\u2019s minimal vocal approach in his creations at a home that Prydz gatekeeps for himself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"td-block-row td-post-next-prev\">\n<div class=\"td-block-span6 td-post-prev-post\">\n<div class=\"td-post-next-prev-content\"><span>Previous article<\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/2026\/06\/thomas-bangalter-says-no-to-daft-punk-reunion-possibility\/\">Thomas Bangalter Says No to Daft Punk Reunion Possibility<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"td-block-span6 td-post-next-post\">\n<div class=\"td-post-next-prev-content\"><span>Next article<\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/2026\/06\/chris-lakes-epic-takeover-of-under-the-k-bridge\/\">Chris Lake\u2019s Epic Takeover of Under the K Bridge<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-box-wrap\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/author\/asanyal\/\" aria-label=\"author-photo\"><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e8e9e1647695b2b46757570f13701eceaa797add7aec066fd89c8c1413939b52?s=96&amp;d=mm&amp;r=pg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e8e9e1647695b2b46757570f13701eceaa797add7aec066fd89c8c1413939b52?s=192&amp;d=mm&amp;r=pg 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-96 photo\" height=\"96\" width=\"96\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"desc\">\n<p>Stargazer, worships Pryda, Above&amp;Beyond fanatic and a Kopite for life&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"td-page-meta\" itemprop=\"author\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Anir Ban\"\/><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/author\/asanyal\/\"\/><\/span><meta itemprop=\"datePublished\" content=\"2026-06-10T17:47:06-04:00\"\/><meta itemprop=\"dateModified\" content=\"2026-06-10T17:47:08-04:00\"\/><meta itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"mainEntityOfPage\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/WebPage\" itemid=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/2026\/06\/apple-music-reveals-eric-prydz-single-new-label\/\"\/><span class=\"td-page-meta\" itemprop=\"publisher\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\"><span class=\"td-page-meta\" itemprop=\"logo\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/edmtunes_white.png\"\/><\/span><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"EDMTunes\"\/><\/span><meta itemprop=\"headline\" content=\"Apple Music Accidentally Reveals Eric Prydz' First Single on His New Label\"\/><span class=\"td-page-meta\" itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.edmtunes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11780789.jpg\"\/><meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"1920\"\/><meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"1200\"\/><\/span>        <\/footer>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.edmtunes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Progressive house titan Eric Prydz is all set to kickstart one more label! \u2018Heavy\u2019 is rumored to be the first offering on his brand new label Lycka Recordings that should mark its arrival amongst the prominent labels run by the Swede.
