September 8, 2023 – The reigning king of disco, Purple Disco Machine, joins forces with chart-topping producer Duke Dumontand breakout British band Nothing But Thieves to deliver a captivating new single, “Something On My Mind,” out now via Sony Music Germany/RCA Records.
The dynamic collaboration leans into electronic indie pop with shimmering synth textures, a bubbling electro bassline, and unmistakable vocals from Nothing But Thieves. The unique blend of genres and concept for collaboration blossomed when Nothing But Thieves approached Purple Disco Machine with a request to remix a track from their latest album, currently #1 on the UK Official Albums Chart. Instead, Purple Disco Machine had a different proposition in mind – crafting an exhilarating musical fusion that wastes no time in captivating the listener with its irresistible groove.
Purple Disco Machine has been at the forefront of a disco revival, earning countless accolades and chart success on a global scale. His recent collaboration with Kungs on their single “Substitution” has achieved over 70 million streams worldwide, becoming another massive European airplay hit. With an impressive track record that includes a GRAMMY win and remixes for a multitude of acclaimed artists, Purple Disco Machine has solidified his position as a trailblazer in electronic music. Having recently received a GRAMMY for Best Remixed Recording on Lizzo’s “About Damn Time,” Purple Disco Machine continues to ride a wave of incredible success.
After already playing a run of multiple headline DJ sets across the globe earlier this year, Purple Disco Machine will play his first ever headline show in his home city of Dresden on September 15.

About Purple Disco Machine
So ingrained in his identity, Tino Piontek’s artist name, Purple Disco Machine, is a deliberate homage to his funk hero Prince and the dance flair of Gloria Estefan’s Miami Sound Machine. While the sonic identity of Purple Disco Machine grew up in the clubs of East Germany, where his passion for disco and house flourished, he has since evolved to become an all-encompassing radio and streaming king. A suitable title for an artist with over 1 billion streams and multiple European Airplay Chart toppers across his catalogue with hits such as “Hypnotized,” “Fireworks,” ‘Dopamine,” “In The Dark,” and “Substitution.”
Beyond the radio, he has proven to be a club favorite among DJs across the world as the #2 best-selling Beatport Artist of All Time with dancefloor heaters such as “Body Funk,” “Dished (Male Stripper),” “Playbox,” and “Devil In Me” feat. Duane Harden & Joe Killing-ton. A GRAMMY Award winner with a remix of Lizzo’s “About Damn Time,” Purple Disco Machine has had huge success with multiple high-profile remixes for the likes of Dua Lipa, Mark Ronson, Foals, Calvin Harris, Sir Elton John & Britney Spears, Fatboy Slim, Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande, Diplo & SIDEPIECE, and many more. Proving his passion for the intimacy of the dancefloor, the acclaimed producer played more than 160 shows in 2022 and 2023 across Europe, the United States, and South America, with festival appearances at Coachella, Tomorrowland, Lollapalooza, Ushuaia Ibiza, and Dreamland Pride in Central Park New York. A dedicated performer and a hit-maker extraordinaire, his influence on the global dance scene will be felt for generations to come.
