German producer BUNT. has officially released his latest single, ‘Stay,’ featuring the emotive vocals of Canadian singer-songwriter Lauren Spencer Smith. Available now via Arista Records, the track marks a significant moment for the producer, having first captured audience attention when he debuted the song during his performance at Coachella earlier this year.
‘Stay’ masterfully blends BUNT.’s signature stuttering, pitch-shifted production style with the raw, vulnerable vocal delivery of Spencer Smith. The narrative centers on the tension of a one-night encounter—a moment that begins with wordless bliss but slowly gives way to the unspoken questions that arise as dawn approaches. The recurring refrain, “stay here,” serves as a desperate plea to suspend time, a sentiment perfectly captured by the track’s arrangement, which evolves from a stripped-back opening into a lush, full-bodied soundscape by the final act.
This release arrives at a pivotal point in BUNT.’s career, as he continues to solidify his status as a global force in dance music with over 1.1 billion streams to his name. Following his successful Coachella debut, 2026 has proven to be a banner year for the artist. His recent touring schedule included a sold-out ‘Under the K’ show in May and a highly anticipated debut at New York’s Pacha, where he performed for a combined audience of roughly 20,000 fans across his New York dates.
BUNT.’s momentum is further evidenced by his recent chart success, having secured his first No. 1 at US Dance Radio with ‘i need u.’ This follows a string of high-performing tracks, including the Top 10 hits ‘Spaces’ and ‘Clouds.’ Recognized by Rolling Stone as one of their ‘Future 25’ artists for 2026, BUNT. has also demonstrated his massive live appeal, selling over 400,000 tickets in the past year alone through his immersive ‘IN THE ROUND’ live show concept.
‘Stay’ is available now on all major streaming platforms.
