Electronic duo
NOTD (pronounced "noted") formed when its two members were still in high school. Establishing their brand with high-profile remixes for top pop acts such as
Sia and
Rihanna, they issued their debut single, "Summer of Love," in 2017.
The duo -- Samuel Brandt (aka Severo) and Tobias Danielsson (aka ToWonder) -- met online and begin producing music together before realizing they were schoolmates. They built an audience with a prolific series of tropical-inspired future bass remixes of hit singles by the likes of
Ed Sheeran ("Shape of You"),
Shawn Mendes ("There's Nothing Holding Me Back"),
Alessia Cara ("Scars to Your Beautiful"),
DJ Khaled and
Rihanna ("Wild Thoughts"), and more. While their
Sheeran remix hit ten million streams, their spin on
Stanaj's "Romantic" racked up 45 million. In August 2017 the pair released their original debut single, "Summer of Love," featuring Norwegian pop singer
Dagny. They followed in 2018 with the
Bea Miller-assisted "I Wanna Know" and "So Close," the latter of which featured German DJ
Felix Jaehn,
Georgia Ku, and
Captain Cuts. "So Close" peaked at number one on the Billboard Dance chart. More tracks arrived in 2019, including "I Miss Myself" with
HRVY and "Keep You Mine" with
Shy Martin. "I Don't Know Why," featuring
Astrid S, appeared in May 2020. ~ Neil Z. Yeung
