We recently took a look at the albums that many of you are looking forward to hearing this fall. When checking out the release schedule, we realized one major thing: there are some albums that we've heard were on the way, but for whatever reason haven't seemed to get solid information on... yet. The last time we looked at this year's most anticipated projects, a flurry of release dates started hitting the EDM ether. Not to say we caused that... but who knows. In any case, we're back again to give you an idea of the albums that are rumored, or mostly confirmed, that have yet to receive release dates at the time of writing.
Skrillex
Tiesto
Duck Sauce - Quack
Label: Casablanca
Around the release of Duck Sauce's latest single "It's You," we heard that Casablanca would be releasing their album Quack in October. As of this writing, there's no official word on the release date, although we wonder if the rumors about clearing samples on the album might be why there's no firm confirmation date. Regardless, this is one project that will be the talk of the dance music scene once we get more details on it.
Steve Angello
Label: Size Records?
Since Swedish House Mafia's separation, Steve Angello has kept very busy, picking his SIZE imprint up and really forcing his way into the scene on his own. He's spoken a number of times regarding an album project that's in the works, but with his DJ schedule, label running, and the forthcoming Size In The Park 2 event, we're not sure we'll be hearing about this project's release anytime soon.
Afrojack
Label: Wall? Island?
We've known that Afrojack has had an album on the way since early 2013. Since then he's released a single with Chris Brown and signed a deal with Island Records and Universal Music Group, and while he's definitely been touring and has released an EP (alongside a different, more leftfield project), we've not received any new word on what he has on the horizon for his album.
Paul Oakenfold - Pop Killer
Dillon Francis
Label: Mad Decent
Dillon Francis is another producer who we know is currently in the studio churning out material, but we have no concrete information regarding the release of this surefire banger. With singles like "Without You" showcasing a more emotional side of his production, we can gather that his LP will be different than his previous singles and EPs, dabbling in different vibes and tones, which would be a blessing for one of EDM's leading artists.
