Telos is the upcoming third studio album by Russian-German electronic music producer Zedd. His first album since 2015's True Colors, it is set for release on 30 August 2024 through Interscope Records.[1]

Background and promotion

[edit]

In a 2023 recap video uploaded to Instagram, Zedd announced that he was working on a new album, calling the project "the most genuine and deeply personal album I've ever made".[2] In May 2024, during a performance at the EDC Las Vegas music festival, Zedd announced the album's release date using skywriting. The album title and cover art were revealed in an Instagram post uploaded shortly after EDC.[3]

On 21 June 2024, the album's lead single "Out of Time" was released, featuring vocals from Bea Miller.[4] Two weeks later, Zedd announced a partnership with 5 Gum to produce an exclusive one-off show in an undisclosed New York City bodega. The show would include previously unheard songs from Telos. Fans were invited to compete for the event's free tickets by participating in a scavenger hunt, with clues posted by Zedd and 5 Gum's social media accounts every day until the scheduled event on August 22. Only the first 25 people to visit the bodega ahead of the show would receive free tickets.[5][6]

The album's second single, "Lucky" (with Remi Wolf), was released on 9 August 2024.[7][8]
