If We Go Out
Paul Schulze, Beaux Neptune
Release: September 2, 2026 · Single · House (Melodic House, Emotional House)
Milk & Honey Records c/o The Orchard
German producer Paul Schulze and London vocalist Beaux Neptune ("Driving Fast" w/ Swimming Paul, 22.3M streams) meeting in the middle of the emotional dance wave. A warm, nostalgic house record with a left turn: Beaux comes correct with a grime-style rap over the top, and the drop rides a synth line you'll be humming by the second listen. Schulze brings 67M+ streams and one of the strongest German radio footprints of any developing dance artist in his class.
Why This One Matters
Emotional dance is bubbling globally, and the lane is still wide open. oskar med k went from 40K to 9M+ monthly listeners in under a year, and on to a Coachella slot, off "Make Me Feel" (239.9M streams). Barry Can't Swim and Fred again.. carried the sound from clubs to festival main stages, and Spotify has built serious editorial real estate around it: Emotional Dance, Melancholia, Crying on the Dance Floor. "If We Go Out" sits squarely in that lane, and it arrives while the wave is still building.
Paul Schulze arrives with real infrastructure already in place: releases on top-tier labels including selected., Sony, Kontor and One Seven, a deep bench of collaborators, and one of the strongest German radio footprints of any developing dance artist in his class. This is not a cold start; it's a refinement of a sound that's already working at scale.

Lyrics
Pose for the flash and the photos
I'm with the entourage I ain't solo
I walk in these streets in my 06 polo
I miss old times, nostalgic fomo
Times like these when I'm off of my face
Times like these gotta turn up the bass
I don't wanna speak girl I need my space
If we turned back time it'd be same
I felt too much heart
I felt too much in gut
Money came in and it got me smiling
dreams don't stop and the racks keep piling
I'm out with the dargs and we
I'm out with the dargs and we wilin
If we go out we ain't going out quiet
If we go out we ain't going out quiet

Overview
The record opens warm and nostalgic, a melodic house bed that could carry a hook on its own. Then comes the left turn: Beaux Neptune comes correct with a grime-style rap over the top, sounding almost like Central Cee wandered into an emotional house session. It shouldn't work and it absolutely does: London rap cadence over Hamburg house craft, "old times, nostalgic fomo" as the emotional center.
Then the drop hits and the real earworm shows up: a super catchy synth line that functions as a second hook and refuses to leave your head. At 2:27 it's built for repeat listens and short form: wistful enough for Melancholia and Crying on the Dance Floor, big enough for mint.

German producer Paul Schulze (67M+ streams) links with London's Beaux Neptune (22.3M on "Driving Fast") right in the middle of the emotional dance wave. A warm, nostalgic hook, a grime-style verse that sounds almost like Central Cee over melodic house, and a synth line after the drop that won't quit. Wistful enough for the sad-dance lists, big enough for the flagships. For fans of Fred again.., oskar med k, Barry Can't Swim. Emotional dance, melodic house and after-hours playlists.
