Calvin Harris is one of the most successful producers on the planet. Over his 17-year career he has released five Top 5 Albums and a jaw-dropping 9 No.1 Singles.
Along with his own releases, he has produced tracks for the biggest names in pop music, working with everyone from Kylie Minogue and Rihana to The Weeknd and Justin Timberlake.
As we get ready for the madness that will be his residency Opening Party on Friday 31st May, we’re taking a look through his incredible back catalogue.
"We Found Love" (featuring Rihanna)
Number one in over 25 countries, topped the Billboard Hot 100 for 10 weeks, won the MTV Video Music Award for Video of the Year and the GRAMMY Award for Best Dance Recording the list of achievements for this record is staggering. The first and most successful of Calvin’s collabs with Rihanna almost was to be as it was originally recorded by Leona Lewis, then offered to Nicole Scherzinger before landing with Rihanna.
“How Deep Is Your Love” (featuring Disciples)
This slow burn deep house roller came as a notable change to Calvin’s sound when it was first released. The team up with UK group Disciples became a No.1 hit in multiple countries and has become an enduring house favourite.
"Feel So Close"
An electro house anthem that was both a dancefloor favourite and an international mega hit. Released in 2011, it marked a turning point in Calvin’s career and was the last time he would use his own vocals on a track until 2016’s “My Way”. The track was used widely in TV film and computer games, from Guitar Hero to The Inbetweeners movie.
“One Kiss” (featuring Dua Lipa)
A massive global hit, and was the longest-running UK No.1 Single in 2018. The club-focused homage to 90s dancefloors won a BRIT Award for British Song of the Year and helped propel Dua Lipa into the superstar she is today.
“Summer”
The perfect singalong anthem for our open air dancefloor? “Summer” captures the euphoria of hot days, sun shining and stadium-sized electronic music. Officially crowned the Song of the Summer by Spotify when it was released.
“Miracle” (featuring Ellie Goulding)
Last year’s monster hit, “Miracle” showcases Calvin’s versatility as a producer. His third major collaboration with Ellie Goulding, the trance-influenced instant classic became Calvin’s 9th UK No.1 Single, won the GRAMMY Award for Best Pop Dance Recording and is still a fixture in clubs and on streaming and radio.
“Desire” (featuring Sam Smith)
Calvin Harris reunited with Sam Smith for “Desire” after the success of their 2018 No.1 record, “Promises”. Whereas the later was a more chilled dance pop affair, “Desire” is a propulsive club hit with driving bass soaring synths and fist-pumping beats.
“Lovers In A Past Life” (featuring Rag‘n’Bone Man)
Calvin’s first single of 2024 is his second team up with English vocalist Rag‘n’Bone Man since working together on the 2019 anthem “Giant”. “Lovers In A Past Life” is another epic collaboration that brings together Rag‘n’Bone Man’s soulful tones with a propulsive club beat that will leave you dreaming of sun-kissed dancefloors.
