Brazilian producers Öwnboss and Scorsi are no strangers to the global dance music circuit. Öwnboss already commands a massive audience, thanks to his 2022 breakout hit ‘Move Your Body,’ which cleared 200 million streams. But with their new collaborative project, Immersed, the duo is stepping away from their individual brands to build an entirely separate artistic identity.
Born out of a natural studio chemistry that sparked during their work on their remix of Nari & Milani’s timeless ‘Atom,’ Immersed positions itself as a meticulous exercise in sound-design and world-building. The resulting sonic identity balances emotional, melodic depth with high-impact energy designed for the festival stage. This stylistic approach extends to their visuals, which rely on a clean, high-contrast aesthetic dominated by a striking red motif.
The project is already moving quickly through its rollout schedule. Following early 2026 singles ‘Now You See Me’ and ‘Tantra,’ the duo recently released ‘The Last Time,’ a vocal-driven track that highlights their emotional range. Now signed to Sony, Immersed is preparing a six-track EP for release this summer.
We caught up with Immersed to discuss the project.
EDM.com: Immersed brings together two already established artists with distinct styles and careers. What was the moment where you both realized this wasn’t just a collaboration, but something that deserved to become its own long-term project?
Immersed: It happened very naturally. At first, Immersed was never supposed to be a “project” in the traditional sense. We were just making music together after the Atom remix because the chemistry felt good creatively.
But after a few sessions, we realized the songs weren’t sounding like random collaborations anymore. There was a consistent emotional language connecting everything, groove, atmosphere, melody, heavy basses — and it started feeling like chapters from the same universe.
At the same time, the identity outside the music was also forming naturally in our heads. The visuals, the energy on stage together, the way we talked about the project, even the emotional tone behind the records. It started becoming its own world instead of simply “Öwnboss & Scorsi.”
That’s when we realized it deserved its own name and long-term vision.
EDM.com: Your releases so far, from “Now You See Me” and “Tantra” to the new single “The Last Time”, each explores somewhat different emotional and sonic territory. How would you describe the core sound and identity of Immersed at this stage?
Immersed: Immersed is really built around contrast. We love combining things that normally don’t coexist comfortably together. Emotional but aggressive, cinematic but club-driven. That tension between opposites is probably the core DNA of the project right now.
Each release explores a different side of that identity. “Tantra” leans more hypnotic and groove-oriented and strong club energy, “Now You See Me” feels more like its own thing, melodic and yet direct, while “The Last Time” dives much deeper emotionally and atmospherically.
But even with those differences, there’s still a thread connecting everything. We’re less interested in fitting into one genre and more interested in creating a feeling people immediately associate with Immersed.
The goal is for listeners to recognize the energy before they even recognize the style.
EDM.com: Öwnboss – you’re arguably most known globally for massive club records like “Move Your Body,” and Scorsi, you’ve built a reputation through melodic and progressive production. How do you balance different creative instincts without one side overpowering the other?
Immersed: Honestly, the contrast is exactly what makes the project work. The important thing from the beginning was understanding that Immersed shouldn’t feel like an Öwnboss record featuring Scorsi or the opposite. The project only really works when both worlds disappear into something new together.
There are moments where one person naturally leads more emotionally, and others where someone pushes the energy or sound design further, but there’s very little ego involved creatively. If the track needs something, whoever has the best instinct in that moment takes the lead.
What keeps everything balanced is trust. We both know the project becomes stronger when neither side tries to dominate the identity. And ironically, because of that freedom, Immersed probably represents both of us more honestly than our solo projects sometimes do.

EDM.com: “The Last Time” feels especially vocal-driven and emotionally cinematic. Was that a deliberate evolution for the project, and can fans expect the upcoming EP to continue pushing in that direction?
Immersed: Definitely. “The Last Time” was a very important record for us creatively because it pushed the emotional side of Immersed further than before without losing the impact and tension we care about on the dancefloor.
We’ve always been inspired by cinematic music, alternative music and emotionally-driven songwriting outside of electronic music, so allowing vocals and atmosphere to take a bigger role felt very natural for the project.
That emotional direction absolutely continues throughout the EP, but not in a predictable way. Some tracks are heavier, some are more melodic, some feel darker and club-driven. The idea wasn’t to create six songs that sound the same, it was to build a world where different emotions can coexist while still feeling connected sonically and visually.
We wanted the EP to feel immersive in the literal sense of the word.
EDM.com: What does success for this project look like over the next few years beyond just streams and chart positions?
Immersed: Creating something people genuinely connect to emotionally.
Of course streams and growth matter, but we’re much more interested in building an identity that feels lasting instead of chasing short-term moments. We want Immersed to feel like a real world people can enter, not just a playlist of tracks designed for algorithms.
A huge goal for us is evolving the live experience into something much more cinematic and immersive visually and emotionally. We want people leaving a show feeling like they experienced something, not just watched two DJs play records.
And honestly, if a few years from now people can instantly recognize the atmosphere and energy of an Immersed record before they even see the artist name, that probably means we succeeded creatively.
