Boris Brejcha follows retirement news with ‘Cello Tears’ feat. Sascha Kid
The single is out now with a video. It is Brejcha’s first release since he said 2028 will be his final year as an artist.
Boris Brejcha has released ‘Cello Tears’, a collaboration with cellist Sascha Kid, along with an official video. It is his first single since he announced that 2028 will be his last year as an artist.
The track opens with a cello solo from Sascha Kid, then gives way to a heavy bassline and the “Joker” sound that runs through his High-Tech Minimal style. Some crowds have heard it already. It has been in his recent sets across North America, South America and Europe, and it opened his Tomorrowland 2026 set.
Brejcha announced the retirement in a video statement on Saturday, October 24, saying the decision had been years in the making. “You have given me so much strength, and that’s why I want to give just as much strength back to you when we celebrate together one last time in 2028,” he said.
He will play festivals for the last time in 2027. After that comes his final headline run, the Last Chapter: Becoming the Joker Tour 2028. Details are still to be announced.
