Yousef & Kuuda Reunite On ‘Love And Hope’

Circus Recordings boss, Yousef returns with ‘Love and Hope’, his third collaboration with Brighton trio Kuuda, following the success of ‘Loving is Living’ and ‘Higher Place’ from his number one album ‘I Operate in Purple’. The new single delivers a melodic and reflective journey through heartbreak, lifted by Kuuda’s powerful emotive vocals and Yousef’s signature 90s inspired house production. While rooted in classic influences, the track carries a distinctly modern vibe drenched in lush synthscapes. The release also includes a remix from Greek Tech House producer Red Weeller, who adds a sharper, late night energy perfect for the afters.

With more than thirty years in global electronic music, Yousef remains one of the UK’s most respected DJs and producers. His fifth artist album, ‘I Operate in Purple’, released in 2025, features a wide range of collaborators including Baby Girl, Kuuda, Bodacious Thang, Alexx and Yasmin. His label Circus Recordings continues to champion both established names and rising talent, with past releases from Carl Cox, Kerri Chandler, Green Velvet and Jamie Jones. Kuuda, made up of Charlie, Maeve and Ollie, have quickly become one of the most talked about new acts in UK dance music. Their sound moves between Progressive, Afro, Jackin House and emotive Breakbeat, and they have collaborated with Yousef, Franky Wah, Hot Since 82, KeeQ, Artche, Sam Divine and James Organ. Their track with Hot Since 82, ‘ALIVE’, earned BBC Radio 1 support from Pete Tong and Danny Howard.

‘Love And Hope’ (Incl. Red Weeller Remix) will be released on April 24th 2026 on Circus Recordings.
