Shouse (/ʃaʊs/[2]) are an Australian electronic music duo consisting of Ed Service and Jack Madin. They are best known for their 2017 single "Love Tonight", which experienced renewed popularity in 2021 after various remixes of it were used in TikTok trends.
Career[]
In 2015, Shouse gathered in a warehouse in Brunswick for a recording session, where they recorded what would become the song "Love Tonight". Edward Service told ABC Radio Melbourne: "We decided to get a big group of mates together … it was just a big group of amateur singers and some of Melbourne's underground music stars of the time."[3]
The duo's first two singles "Whisper" and "Support Structure" are sung by Mohini and Maia of band Habits. Their third single "Without You" featured Rachel and fourth single "Text Apology" featured Martha.[1] Their debut EP Openshouse 3 was released in September 2017.[4]
On 14 December 2017, the band released "Love Tonight".[5] The track received a lukewarm reception.[3] Fraya Dinesent from Purple Sneakers the song was "a mischievous parody" calling it an "endearing homage to the classic 1980s celebrity extravaganza that was Bandaid's 'We Are the World'." For the song, Shouse assembled an all-star choir of people they love and admire in their local Melbourne scene.[6]
In December 2018, the band released their second extended play, Into It. Michael Stratford Hutch from Purple Sneakers wrote: "This is sensuous, developed work, that's gratifying to listen to across a variety of contexts—get around it."[7]
In March 2021, German electronic music producer Oliver Huntemann and Brazilian DJ and producer Vintage Culture released separate remixes of "Love Tonight" which gained traction on TikTok.[8] This was followed in June 2021 with a remix by French DJ and record producer David Guetta which saw the song appear on national charts across Europe.[8]
