Robert O’Connor Announces Clubwav Continuum (Out October 10)

Dublin-born songwriter, producer, and artist Robert O’Connor follows his acclaimed latest album Swimming Against The Tide — which surpassed 200,000 streams and produced eight singles — with a bold new project: Clubwav Continuum, arriving October 10.

The album transforms the original ten tracks into a 1+ hour seamless DJ-style mix, reimagined with experimental flourishes and drawing on influences from ’80s sophistipop to ’90s dance and trance-pop. Designed as a continuous journey, the mix invites listeners to experience the album in one flowing wave — perfect for late-night drives, club spaces, or focused listening.

The lead single, “Once In A While”, drops September 19, featuring a brand-new Radio Edit, Extended Mix, and a full set of instrumentals, giving fans multiple ways to enjoy one of O’Connor’s most hook-driven tracks.

Clubwav Continuum follows O’Connor’s spin-off project, Night Tides: The Chillout Collection, a long-time personal goal inspired by the chillout genre that reimagined his music in immersive, atmospheric ways. Together, these releases highlight his versatility — from cinematic chillout textures to euphoric, club-ready energy.

While O’Connor has previously worked with both Gareth Shortland (Steps, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Will Young) and Jordan Arteaga (Night Tides), Clubwav Continuum marks the first time they have collaborated together on a single project. The album also features contributions from fan-favourite Sakgra, Tee Webb, and platinum-selling songwriter Gordon Pogoda.

Following the album, a special ‘Individually Wrapped Edition’ will be released on October 17, offering each of the ten tracks as separate extended mixes. This bonus edition allows fans to explore the songs individually or create personalized playlists— giving a flexible, fan-focused listening experience that complements the continuous mix.

As singer, songwriter, and executive producer at the project’s core, O’Connor delivers a cinematic, euphoric, and nostalgic electronic-pop experience, inviting listeners to dive deeper into his expansive musical world — one where the tides are always shifting, and the flow never stops.
