About Galantis

Galantis is the electronic dance music moniker of renowned Swedish record producer Bloodshy, famous for making up a third of the band Miike Snow and his work with artists like Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue, Cathy Dennis and Jennifer Lopez. The moniker was formerly recognised as a duo between Bloodshy and fellow DJ and record producer Style of Eye between 2014 and 2020.

Bloodshy and Style of Eye formed Galantis after Style of Eye began remixing some of Miike Snow’s work and also through his success from producing Icona Pop’s “I Love It”. The pair signed a record deal with Big Beat Records and released a self-titled extended play. The single “You” was said by the team to be a reject by Britney Spears and so the band kept it for themselves. The band also formed a mascot called the “seafox”, designed by Mat Maitland. The band’s debut album Pharmacy, supported by their hit singles “Runaway (U & i)” and “Peanut Butter Jelly”, became a massive success and featured vocals from songwriters, including Cathy Dennis, Vincent Pontare and Jennifer Decilveo. Shortly after in 2015, Style of Eye expressed interest in stepping down from creative control over Galantis and only wanted to contribute under the name as live member

As a result, Galantis' signature electro house sound transitioned into electro pop which was solidified in the release of Galantis' second album The Aviary in 2017. At the peak of collaboration, the album boasted vocals from popular industry songwriters, including BullySongs, Bonnie McKee, Wrabel and Ross Golan. According to the record label, most of the writing that took place for the record were by Bloodshy and Style of Eye together, with Bloodshy producing, in fears that not writing together would breach their recording contract.

For a time in 2017 and 2018, Galantis were in disputes with their record label over their credited achievements under the moniker and disagreements over the creative direction of what would be their third album. This resulted in several non-album singles being released during the time, mostly written by Bloodshy and Style of Eye. However, they were finally settled in 2019, prior to the release of the song “Bones”, which became the first Galantis song to not have been written with Style of Eye. With this in mind, Bloodshy began recruiting new people to work with on the album, including Bali Bandits and David Saint Fleur as well as the duo’s usual collaborator Henrik Jonback; a contrast to Galantis' first two albums being composed with Svidden and Jonback. The album was released under the name Church in 2020.

Church was the last to be released under Galantis' three-album contract with Big Beat, which led to Style of Eye officially parting from the duo. Bloodshy carried on performing under Galantis, reinventing the moniker as a solo act with producers Mr. Whistler – of Bali Bandits – Y3llo Koala and Saint Fleur. Between 2020 and 2023, Bloodshy released a series of non-album collaborations with British artists, such as Little Mix, Becky Hill, Mabel, Craig David and MNEK. In June 2023, Bloodshy announced Galantis' official comeback as a solo act with the new single “Bang Bang! (My Neurodivergent Anthem)”.
