Host Izzy speaks with singer-songwriter John Newman about reworking his hit into the new "Love Me Again (Again)" remixes, his creative "bucket of influence," and the people—especially his daughter and tight-knit team—who inspire him. More than a decade after its original release defined a generation of dance-pop, John Newman’s ‘Love Me Again’ returns reborn for the club floor.

Arriving as a staggered series of releases culminating in the full ‘Love Me Again (Again)’ Remix EP on March 20th, the project sees a global cast of producers transform the timeless vocal into a high-energy dance record for 2026. Spanning drum & bass, progressive house, bass house and peak-time club sounds, the EP invites some of electronic music’s most exciting names to reinterpret the iconic track, from rising crossover talent Arcando through to established festival forces DubVision & Third Party, Henri PFR, Wh0, Marten Hørger, and a final wave of remixes from NOME, Lucas Estrada and Newman’s own club-focused alias SIX40TWO.

UK house heavyweight Wh0 injects the record with driving throwback energy. Formerly one half of house royalty act The Rhythm Masters, the producer has since built a formidable solo catalogue including Beatport chart-toppers, a Grammy nomination and releases on Ministry of Sound. The rollout began with Dutch producer Arcando, whose remix flips the original into a high-octane bassline weapon. Ever since Martin Garrix debuted his viral remix of ‘Jungle’ on the Ultra Miami mainstage, Arcando has been rapidly rising within the DnB world, building a distinctive crossover sound that bridges festival EDM and bass music. Next comes the progressive house pairing of DubVision & Third Party, two of the genre’s most respected studio outfits. Dutch brothers DubVision bring their polished EDM energy, while UK duo Third Party - known for their soaring festival anthems and collaborations with Steve Angello and Swedish House Mafia - deliver a euphoric, hands-in-the-air interpretation.

Belgian producer Henri PFR follows with a sun-drenched remix built on glistening melodic house textures. A long-time fixture in Armada’s orbit and a regular on international festival stages, PFR channels his trademark uplifting sound into a version designed for summer dancefloors. German bass house innovator Marten Hørger then delivers a punchy, festival-ready take. Widely regarded as one of the leading forces in bass house, Hørger’s explosive productions and releases on labels like Musical Freedom and Monstercat have made him one of the genre’s most in-demand names. The full remix pack lands with three final interpretations.

Dutch producer NOME continues his rise with a high-impact edit drawing on the energy of golden-era EDM, while Swedish hitmaker Lucas Estrada brings his polished dance-pop sensibility - the same sound that has helped him surpass 1 billion streams across his catalogue. Completing the EP is SIX40TWO, the club-focused alias of John Newman himself. Built as a creative outlet free from the expectations of his chart career, the project represents Newman’s deeper dive into club culture - anthemic interpretation designed for the big rooms. Following a career that has delivered nine number-one records as both artist and songwriter, three BRIT Award nominations and over 2.5 billion total streams, Newman continues to bridge pop, soul and electronic music with rare authenticity.

His collaboration with David Guetta and MistaJam on ‘If You Really Love Me (How Will I Know)’ in 2021 marked the start of this refreshed chapter - now defined by dance-led solo music and a reinvigorated live show where he seamlessly commands both mic and decks. With Love Me Again (Again)’s remix EP, Newman transforms one of the most recognisable vocals in modern pop into a global club project, proving that some songs don’t just endure, they evolve.
