Ehrling and Eirik Næss Team Up for Sun-Drenched Summer Anthem ‘Ocean Blue’

A chill house collaboration born at ADE 2024 capturing the carefree spirit of coastal escapes.

Swedish chill house maestro Ehrling and Norwegian singer-songwriter Eirik Næss have joined forces to release 'Ocean Blue', a breezy, sun-soaked single that perfectly sets the mood for summer. Out now on all major streaming platforms, the track blends smooth saxophone, mellow tropical house beats, and wistful vocals into a nostalgic escape from everyday life.

The collaboration was sparked by a chance meeting at the Amsterdam Dance Event in 2024, where the pair connected during a casual jam session. “I was just messing around on the piano one night and came up with these dreamy chords,” Ehrling explains. “The vibe was super chill, so I added sax. Then Eirik laid down these silky vocals that totally elevated it.”

Eirik Næss, who has built a reputation as both a solo artist and international topliner, brings a subtle emotional weight to the track, floating effortlessly over Ehrling’s warm, laid-back production. The result is a track that feels tailor-made for golden hours, slow sunsets, and spontaneous road trips.

With over half a billion streams to his name and fans like Madonna singing his praises, Ehrling has cemented his place among tropical house royalty. Meanwhile, Næss continues to rise as a global songwriter and artist, known for his genre-crossing versatility and heartfelt lyricism.

Whether you're beachside or city-bound, 'Ocean Blue' offers a gentle reminder to slow down, breathe, and soak it all in. 

'Ocean Blue' is out now via Playground Music.
