The most anticipated house album of June drops on the 5th.
Prospa are dropping Free Your Mind on June 5 and it's the first ever full length album on CircoLoco Records. The label co-owned by Rockstar Games. Go pre-save it now.
Let's talk about what June 5 means for house music right now. Because Prospa are about to drop their debut album Free Your Mind on CircoLoco Records and everything building toward that date feels like the scene holding its breath before something really good happens. Ths title track featuring Cloonee is already out and already living permanently in people's sets. The tour has been running wild across Coachella, Miami Music Week, and a sold out headline show at Magazine London. And the album hasn't even dropped yet.
But before we get into the album itself there is something about this whole story that deserves a moment. Because the label releasing this record is not just any label.
The label behind this is one of the most interesting origin stories in music
CircoLoco Records was born from the partnership between CircoLoco, the party brand that has been representing house and techno for over 20 years through its legendary DC10 parties in Ibiza, and Rockstar Games, creators of some of the world's most popular video games including the GTA and Red Dead Redemption series. Read that again. The people who made GTA co-own a house music label.
Players of Grand Theft Auto have apparently listened to over 75 billions hours of music in game across its 25 exclusive radio stations, which means Rockstar Games has been quietly shaping people's taste in music for decades without anyone calling it a record label. Now they officially are one. And the first full length album they are putting out belongs to Prospa.
Who Prospa are and why this moment makes complete sense
Leeds born childhood friends Harvey Blumler and Gosha Smith began making music together in 2013, drawing inspiration from Daft Punk, Disclosure, The Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy. Two kids from Leeds who grew up on the kind of records that made people fall in love with electronic music in the first place, and then spent over a decade figuring out how to make their own version of that feeling for a new generation.
In 2018, they emerged from Leeds' dance scene with their breakthrough track Prayer, a release that marked the revival of house label Stress Records after a 13 year hiatus. A debut track that brought a legendary label back to life. That isn't something that happens by accident. That's two people who understand what they were doing from the very beginning.
A big year in 2025 saw the pair land consecutive chart toppers with You Don't Own Me featuring Josh Baker and RAHH, and Love Songs featuring Kosmo Klint. By the time the album announcement landed the scene was not surprised. The scene was ready.
The title track and what it tells you about the album
Free Your Mind the title track is a collaboration with Cloonee, a formidable pairing that lands as a straight to business house cut already primed for locked in hands up moments all summer long. Tight drums, buoyant basslines, and a love soaked vocal hook that sticks without overreaching. It hits hard without forcing it and has become a staple of the duo's live sets.
That last detail is the important one. This track was not made in a studio and then released hoping it would work. It was tested on real dancefloors, in real rooms, in front of real peoplel, and it kept working every single time. That's how you know if a record is good or isn't. Not because a press release says so but because it survived the most honest test there is.
Free Your Mind as an album synthesizes the traditions of classic house with the sounds of modern global dance music, a sleek collection of club ready future classics across 11 tracks. Future classics is a bold thing to say about an album that hasn't fully dropped yet. But Prospa have earned the right to that kind of confidence and the title track backs it up completely.
Why this album at this moment matters
There is something about a debut album that hits differently than anything else an artist releases. Singles prove you can make a good track. An album proves you have a whole world inside you. Free Your Mind is Prospa saying here is our world, fully built, come inside. And the fact it's arriving on CircoLoco Records as the label's first ever full length release means both parties are betting everything on this being the thing that defines what the label stands for going forward.
Free Your Mind kicks off Prospa's biggest global tour yet, including Coachella, Miami Music Week, multiple US headlines, and CircoLoco Ibiza. The timing is not accidental. This album lands right as festival season hits it peak, right as Ibiza opens up, right as the whole scene is looking for the record that's going to define their summer. Prospa just put their hand up.
June 5 is coming fast. Stream the title track now, pre save the album, and make sure you know where Prospa are playing near you this summer because this tour is not going to have empty rooms.
