High-octane techno favorite Lilly Palmer has officially entered a bold new chapter in her career. She announced her global signing with major label heavyweight Universal Music Group (UMG).
The Swiss-born, Berlin-based DJ and producer shared the milestone directly with fans on social media. She expressed immense pride in a deal that follows years of relentless touring, studio dedication, and independent boundary-setting.
A Vision Recognized: “Patience Always Works in Your Favor”
In her announcement, Palmer reflected candidly on the discipline and artistic integrity required to navigate the modern electronic music landscape.
Years of hard work, passion, and countless late nights led to this moment. I’m joining an incredible team that understands and shares the vision of my brand and music, and it already feels like coming home for me. This year reaffirmed something for me: saying no, honoring your boundaries, and having the patience to wait for better opportunities will always work in your favor over time.

Palmer also paid heartfelt tribute to her core inner circle. She thanked her partner and frequent musical collaborator Egbert for his “musical genius and being my greatest supporter in life.” Additionally, she thanked her manager Karl for guiding her team “with the precision of a shark and the loyalty of a lion.“
First Universal Drop: ‘HEY YOU’ Arrives August 28
Fans won’t have to wait long to hear the first results of the power pairing. Universal Music Group and Lilly Palmer will release her highly anticipated new single, ‘HEY YOU’, on August 28.
Having already teased the driving techno anthem during her massive festival sets throughout the summer season, “HEY YOU” promises to set a commanding tone for this high-profile partnership.
