After years of shaping dancefloors worldwide and carefully curating the sonic and visual identity of Up The Stuss, Dutch favorite Chris Stussy presents his most expansive and personal statement to date with his debut album, 'Lost, Found & Forgotten...'. The album unfolds across three interconnected chapters - 'Lost', 'Found', and 'Forgotten' - each revealing a different side of his creative world across 19 tracks while remaining tethered to a singular wider vision.At it's core, 'Lost, Found & Forgotten...' is an exploration of creative freedom. Visually and conceptually guided by the image of a kite, the album reflects movement, perspective, and balance. Floating freely yet always anchored, the kite mirrors Chris's approach to music: unrestricted in emotion and imagination, but grounded in groove, craftsmanship, and intention. It's a symbol that naturally extends the Up The Stuss identity; pointing skyward, embracing openness, and encouraging curiosity."This album has been a long time in the making, and I'm excited to finally share it with you. The process behind it - exchanging ideas with other artists and creating music outside of my comfort zone - has been an incredible experience. It gave me a true sense of freedom, allowing me to not think about boundaries or expectations. I've never been more proud of a project than this one. It's deeply personal, and it represents my sound as a whole. I hope you listen with an open mind and find something in it that resonates with you." - Chris Stussy.The 'Lost' chapter opens the album by giving new life to music once left behind. These are tracks written across different moments in Chris's journey, ideas that never quite found a home until now. Rather than relics of the past, they emerge re-discovered, refined, and fully realized.'Found' represents inspiration in motion. Sparked by collaboration, digging, and shared creative exchange, this chapter captures the moment when ideas connect, and color floods the sky. The album closes with 'Forgotten' - a nod to the deeper cuts, the B-sides, and the moments that reward patience. This chapter is for the heads and diggers; tracks that may not demand immediate attention but reveal their value over time.
