Blake Robin’s tangled history as Luxxury (and before that, Baron von Luxxury) has not inhibited him one bit from making the most feel-good of electronic music. Robin has been visited by tragedy among his friends and a legal imbroglio over his remixes, but he carries on, now with collaborator/keyboardist Billy Caruso. His “How to Be Good” EP came out in December, the “Feel the Night” EP followed in March, and on Friday he unveiled the airy disco number “I Need You.” “It’s the most honest song I’ve ever written; indeed when I sing it live I blush from revealing myself in public so shamelessly,” he says. “But frankly I’m a bit of an exhibitionist, so it all works out.” The tune features guest bassist Joe Karnes of Fitz & the Tantrums, and if you’re already starting your new summer pool party playlist, Luxurry’s new single is at the ready, shimmering and blue.
