Following the Beatport chart topping success of its gateway single, ‘Destiny’ (for which Schulz co-wrote lyrics), ‘Watch The World’ sees Markus assume a songwriting role on one of his albums for the first time.

For the first number to be officially released from his sixth long-player, he’s teamed up with the highly talented, LA-based singer, Ethan Thompson. A relative newcomer he may be, but having co-written Shinedown’s Billboard #1 ‘State Of My Head’ this year, Ethan’s already tasted considerable success.

Together, Markus & Ethan have co-written ‘Love Me Like You Never Did’ – a track every inch as hooky, as it is uplifting. You can put eyes and ears to the single now, through the official video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UfcCOwNSVQ&feature=youtu.be

Backed by thrummed guitar, break-of-dawn pianos and the reclined tranquillity of Markus’ production, ‘Love Me Like You Never Did’ arrives with ‘summer sunrise’ stamped all over it. Come its midsection though, the track swells, with Ethan’s sanguine vocals giving it an unchecked, brilliantly high-on-hope quality.

‘Love Me Like You Never Did’ brings three-dimensional lyrics and introspective songwriting to a track that’s as lyrically infectious as most anything you’ll hear this summer coming! It’s out now through Black Hole Recordings / Coldharbour Recordings and you can watch the video through the official Markus Schulz YouTube channel here:
