The esteemed DJ and producer Marea Stamper, known professionally as The Blessed Madonna, is gearing up for the release of her debut album titled ‘Godspeed’, set to drop on October 11th. The album promises an expansive collection of 24 tracks, featuring a stellar lineup including DJ E-Clyps, Kylie Minogue, Jamie Principle, and Joy Crookes.
One of the standout tracks, ‘Edge of Saturday Night’, features disco icon Kylie Minogue. The collaboration came to life during The Blessed Madonna’s DJ set at Ibiza’s renowned Circoloco nightclub. Marea shared on Instagram that the track explores themes of transformation and new beginnings, capturing a moment on the edge of personal and creative growth.
Fans have already been treated to several tracks from the album, including ‘Mercy’ featuring Jacob Lusk, ‘Serotonin Moonbeams’, and ‘Happier’ featuring Clementine Douglas. Each song reflects Marea’s emotional journey, particularly poignant as she navigates the loss of her father, whose voice opens the album and imbues it with personal significance.
In a heartfelt letter to her supporters, Marea expressed that ‘Godspeed’ marks both a culmination and a new beginning, embodying themes of transition and resilience. She credits her creative team, including collaborator Pat Alvarez and visual artists Jon and Dom from Sportsbanger, for helping to shape and elevate the album’s vision.
“This is Godspeed. This is your chance. Now do your dance,” Marea concluded, inviting listeners to join her on this profound musical journey.
The release of ‘Godspeed’ not only showcases The Blessed Madonna’s musical prowess but also underscores her commitment to storytelling and emotional depth within dance music.
