UTO | An extended album, an international tour, and an exclusive playlist!

The Parisian duo UTO continues to carve out their unique path with More Heat to the Fire (Part of Fire), an extended version of their latest album, released on March 28, 2025. This new edition features five previously unreleased tracks that reflect a subtle evolution in their approach to composition: more depth, more space, and a gentle tension that unfolds over time. A record conceived as an organic extension — somewhere between continuity and fresh beginnings.

To accompany the release, the band is hitting the road for a tour that lives up to their ambitions, with several dates across Europe starting in April. Titled the More Heat to the Fire Part of Fire Tour, it includes the following shows:

– 03.04.25: Basel – Sud
– 04.04.25: Aarau – Kiff
– 09.04.25: Utrecht – ACU
– 10.04.25: Hamburg – Hebebühne
– 11.04.25: Berlin – Kantine am Berghain
– 12.04.25: Cologne – Tsunami Club

These concerts are designed as immersive experiences, where electronic minimalism meets an increasingly expressive and emotional songwriting style.

With this new chapter, UTO reaffirms their taste for reinterpretation, hidden paths, and shifting perspectives. More Heat to the Fire (Part of Fire) stands out as an essential addition to their discography — and a great opportunity to experience the full scope of their music where it truly comes alive: on stage.

To celebrate the release and the upcoming tour, UTO has curated an exclusive playlist for What the France, featuring some of their favorite tracks from the French scene. Expect selections from Jazz Lambaux, Bilou, s8jfou, Almond Butyl, Geagea, Oklou, Michel Portal, lazza gio, Bingo Club, Nicolas Worms, Biche, Manu Chao, Flavien Berger, Muddy Monk, Bonnie Banane, Brigitte Fontaine, Lala &ce, Aya Nakamura, Moutarde & Miel, Johan Papaconstantino, Mansfield.TYA, B.B. Jacques, and Ange Halliwell.
