British DJ and producer Revelle27 steps into a new chapter today with the release of his debut solo album REVELATIONS via his independent imprint, Dance Music Therapy. Best known to club-goers as Laurie Revell, formerly half of UK house duo Just Kiddin, he now unveils a deeply personal project that transforms grief and reflection into immersive dance music.
The story of REVELATIONS first surfaced back in July, when Laurie quietly announced the record on Instagram, describing how it gave him “a productive path and his pain a purpose” during the most difficult chapter of his life. Calling it his “most honest expression” and a tribute to his late mother, the post offered fans an intimate glimpse into the journey that shaped the music long before they’d heard a note.
Written in the wake of his mother’s passing, the album embraces vulnerability without surrendering to despair. Laurie threads late-night beats with fragments of raw voice notes recorded during that period of loss, capturing a search for meaning that now reverberates through the club-ready production. It’s a body of work that seeks not only to move but also to comfort, proof that the dancefloor can be a place for both release and healing.
Across its twelve tracks, REVELATIONS balances euphoria with intimacy. Hands of Time reflects on the longing to revisit moments with loved ones who are no longer here, while She Was A Dancer pulses with the radiant energy Laurie associates with his mother’s spirit. On A Mission, featuring Ayda Rose, echoes the urgency of his efforts to help her through illness and has since become a declaration of purpose: to channel empathy into music. Today’s release marks not just a debut album but a statement; a record born of loss that turns personal grief into a shared experience of hope and connection.
