ZUSO – ZUSO EP

By Jez Ryan July 8, 2026 2 min read

After spending the past year carefully introducing audiences to a series of standout collaborations, Australian producer/dj ZUSO is finally ready to unveil the full story with his self-titled EP, arriving July 8.

Across five tracks, ZUSO captures his signature blend of melodic progressive house, bringing together collaborations with Matilda PearlKeelan MakMaver and Beckah Amani, while introducing one final piece of the puzzle, the previously unheard ‘Breath’ featuring Australian artist jnr.

Built around shimmering production, gentle builds and an undeniable emotional pull, ‘Breath’ perfectly encapsulates the sound ZUSO has refined throughout the EP. It’s an uplifting yet introspective record, with jnr.’s warm vocal adding another layer of depth to one of the producer’s most captivating releases to date.

“I started writing this song towards the end of 2024, but never quite got around to finishing it, so it sat lost on my laptop for a while,” ZUSO says. “Fast forward to the start of this year and I reopened the project with fresh ears and a fresh perspective. The track came together pretty quickly from there. After going back and forth on whether it needed a vocal, I decided it did, so we reached out to jnr. to see if he’d be keen to jump on it. He loved the idea, and it quickly evolved into what it is today. We’re both really stoked on how this one turned out and can’t wait for you all to hear it. Hope you enjoy it.”

While each single released over the past 12 months has stood confidently on its own, together they reveal a broader artistic vision. The self-titled EP represents a defining moment for ZUSO, showcasing not only his growth as a producer but his ability to bring together a diverse cast of collaborators without ever losing his own identity.

“‘ZUSO’ isn’t just a collection of songs, it’s a reflection of everything I’ve experienced, learned and felt over the past few years. I was fortunate enough to work with some incredibly talented people along the way, and each collaboration feels like its own unique chapter within this project. I want to thank all of the artists who featured on this EP. It wouldn’t have been possible without them. Thank you for trusting me with your voices, your stories and your creativity.

“Producing this EP has really helped me evolve as an artist, and I feel it has set a strong foundation for the next batch of releases I’ve been working on and am excited to share. I hope you all enjoy listening to these songs as much as I enjoyed creating them.”
