Nicky Romero debuts on Monstercat with “Love You for the Summer” alongside Öwnboss and Oaks. As the summer sun reaches its peak—and so does the promise of fleeting romance—Nicky Romero has delivered a summertime fling in sonic form with his new single, “Love You for the Summer.”

Romero, the mastermind behind Protocol Records, has teamed up with Brazilian sensation Öwnboss and Oaks, the alias of renowned singer-songwriter Winona Oak, to create the new track. His illustrious career needs no introduction, but with his latest offering, he’s achieved another milestone with his debut on Canada’s largest independent electronic music label, Monstercat. A celebration of the season’s highs, the evocative single is a refined blend of emotion and danceable energy.

It opens with delicate piano chords, setting a reflective tone before Oaks’ lovelorn lyrics weave through the melody and pull us listeners into a tale of transient love. As the tension builds, arpeggiated synths dance with euphoric precision, lifting the spirits higher with each note. At its apex, driving basslines thunder beneath punchy, rolling kicks, creating an irresistible groove that demands movement. Gated tremolo vocal chops add a layer of texture, their staccato rhythm echoing the heartbeat of a summer romance.
