HNNY has shared details of his third studio album, 'Light Shines Through'.

It marks the Swedish artist's first full-length project since 2015's 'Sunday'. The release follows 2017's 'Ta Paus' EP and a string of intervening singles. The new record spans 10 tracks, and will be released via the Swedish artist's own label on Friday, 5th July.

The new record combines breakbeats and house music with meditative ambient music. To mark its announcement, HNNY has shared lead single 'I'll Come Your Way', which you can listen to below.

In a statement about 'Light Shines Through', the producer said: "I started the album a couple of weeks after the New Year and I wrote, recorded and mixed everything in my home studio which is in a small shed in the yard of our house.

"I've found it difficult to undertake larger projects like an album, which often take one or more years to complete. But like my previous album, I did everything in a fairly short period of time, about three months this time. I wanted to create something more electronic than what I've done in recent years and on a more abstract level, to make a record where I explored something kind of spiritual. Making music about that which cannot be touched."
