# Lilly Palmer and Caroline Roxy Drop "Unite The Universe"

Lilly Palmer and Caroline Roxy have released their collaborative single "Unite The Universe" as of October 2, 2026. The track is out now on Astralwerks / Island Berlin / UMG Germany.

"Caroline Roxy's vocals hit me instantly, there's a force to them that felt made for this track. I can't wait for 'Unite The Universe' to finally be out in the world!" Palmer said in the announcement.

Who Is on the "Unite The Universe" Single

Lilly Palmer is a Zurich-based techno artist whose sound is built around driving rhythms, melancholic soundscapes, and heavy basslines. She has played clubs and festivals across Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Australia. According to the release, her content has generated more than 56 million views with individual Reels reaching up to 127 million organic views, and she draws more than 1.2 million monthly listeners across streaming platforms.

Caroline Roxy grew up in Borås, Sweden. She started with piano and vocals before moving into DJing and then full music production, combining electronic sounds with her own voice. Her debut single was selected as the official anthem of Summerburst Festival in 2018, where she also performed on the mainstage. In 2026 she has worked with Armin van Buuren, Maddix, Hannah Laing, Marlon Hoffstadt, and BEAUZ, and has received playlist and DJ support from Tiësto, Eli Brown, KI/KI, Hardwell, and Oliver Heldens, among others.

What "Unite The Universe" Sounds Like and Where It Fits

The single brings Palmer's techno production together with Roxy's role as vocalist, songwriter, and co-producer. The release frames the track around themes of freedom and presence, describing the combination as a meeting of Palmer's club-floor energy and Roxy's experience performing her own material live during sets.

The label home says a lot about the trajectory here. Astralwerks has historically been one of the few major-affiliated homes willing to push underground-adjacent electronic acts with full label infrastructure behind them. Island Berlin and UMG Germany handling the release on the European side gives the record reach across markets where both artists already have established audiences.

No album or EP context was included in the release. "Unite The Universe" is presented as a standalone single for now. No producer credit beyond Palmer's own involvement was listed, and no remix package or follow-up release has been announced at this time.

What Lilly Palmer and Caroline Roxy Have Coming Up

No tour dates, festival bookings, or live events were included in this announcement. Both artists actively perform across Europe and internationally, so live dates are likely to follow. Check the [Something Dope events page](/events) for any Los Angeles or US shows as they are confirmed.

For now, "Unite The Universe" is available on all major streaming platforms through Astralwerks / UMG Germany. You can follow Lilly Palmer and Caroline Roxy on Spotify, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube through their respective official channels.

What Independent Artists Can Take From This Campaign

The structure of this release is worth paying attention to if you are an independent artist thinking about collaboration strategy. Caroline Roxy's career path here is a useful case study: she started as a vocalist, added DJing, moved into production, performed her own material in live sets, built a catalogue of festival moments, and positioned herself as a full creative partner rather than a featured vocalist on someone else's record. That arc is what gets you treated as an equal on a major-label single rather than a hired credit.

The other thing to notice is the label setup. Astralwerks / Island Berlin / UMG Germany is a multi-territory distribution structure that maximizes reach in the specific regions where techno and festival culture drive the most streams and booking interest. If you are shopping a collaboration or a release deal, understanding how to frame your market and which label divisions actually serve your genre is more important than chasing the biggest name on the roster.
