Alesso releases "The One" EP
The Global DJ’s Two-Track EP Is An Extension Of His Current Show Concept

Today, electronic music maven Alesso unveils his highly anticipated two-track EP “The One.” The hard-hitting project featuring fan-favorite IDs, “Smoke Machine” and “Get Your Groove On,” drops officially on Friday, August 21, via BodyHi and Tomorrowland Music.
Following the announcement of his show concept of the same name, “The One” is an EP that combines Alesso’s past, present, and future. Performing each of the two tracks to eager and enthusiastic audiences over the past few months, “The One” is an extension of the live experience, bringing his magic that much closer to fans. Alesso captures the essence of his shows in a singular project, featuring his tour-opener, “Get Your Groove On” followed by “Smoke Machine,” a fan-favorite ID. Energetically elevated, both tracks are a strong indication of the bold new direction of the icon’s artistry. “The One” is a testament to Alesso’s sonic impact and penchant for hitmaking.
Constantly pushing the envelope, “The One” cements Alesso as more than just a generational talent but places him among the most widely regarded producers in all of EDM.
“This is the most immersive tour we’ve ever created, in terms of both music and production. These songs were written to create moments that stay with you long after the show is over. “The One” started as the name of the stage we built, but it has grown into something much bigger. It’s a feeling, a memory, and now it’s captured forever in this EP.” - Alesso
About Alesso
Alesso continues to cement his status as not only a leader in dance music, but also a household name in the global scene — the past few years have seen him make history as the first international recording artist in Billboard Dance Radio chart history to achieve two #1 hits with two different songs in consecutive weeks, launch his own label, BodyHi, and gain unprecedented critical acclaim, most recently appearing on the cover of PAPER Magazine. The past year saw the sensation release chart-topping tracks including “Surrender” with Becky Hill, “Inside Our Hearts” with Martin Garrix, and his most recent release, “Destiny” with SACHA. Alongside a wealth of new music, Alesso also made appearances on some of the world’s most sought after festival stages last year, including Ultra Music Festival, where he brought out Nadia Ali for her first live performance in over a decade, as well as Coachella, where he played an unforgettable back-to-back special set with Gorgon City at the Quasar stage during weekend 2, and a highly anticipated set at EDC Las Vegas on the Kinetic Field mainstage. 2025 also saw Alesso take the stage alongside GRAMMY-nominated cellist, Tina Gou to perform their euphoric remix of ‘Ascension’ at the Esports World Cup Opening Ceremony, headlined by 9x diamond-certified artist Post Malone. His continued success in 2026 saw a nearly sold-out US tour, his first hometown show in over ten years, as well as the successful release of “In Your Eyes” with OneRepublic. Alesso continually pushes the boundaries with his ever-evolving sound, proving that his impact will remain as timeless as his music for generations to come.
