Our favorite Chicago-based producer, John Summit, has announced the official release date for his debut album. Earlier today, John revealed that Comfort in Chaos will be released on Friday, July 12th via Darkroom/Experts Only. We are excited about the beautiful tie-dye vinyl in his post below!
Comfort in Chaos
It seems that this might be the most anticipated album of 2024 for us fans. Summit shares that Comfort in Chaos is his most challenging work yet, created with his whole heart and soul. His social media posts have highlighted his musical and emotional growth. And the new music will explore a part of his identity that fans might not be familiar with. This album will touch on his Chicago house roots and also delve into garage, liquid, and dancefloor drum & bass.
The artwork for the album will feature artist Marcos Alvarado, a name Summit admires. Alvarado’s artwork will eschew traditional pop branding and delve into themes of consciousness, meditation, and spirituality, tying in with Summit’s hope to channel these themes into his songs.
Trying to find peace in chaos is the overarching theme of this album – this is a far more emotional, melodic body of work for me, because it’s my most introspective work to date. John Summit is the performing act, but when I write music I get more vulnerable – while writing this album, I had to go from being in the mindset of John Summit to being John Schuster, my real name

The singles from Comfort in Chaos that you may already know are ‘Go Back’, ‘EAT THE BASS’, and ‘Shiver’. The new collaboration with Julia Church’s vocals and Sub Focus’ drum & bass, ‘Go Back’, has been a favorite since its release. Summit has had a busy year so far, with electrifying performances at Coachella and his Experts Only Weekender.Not to mention the winter pop-up event in Vail! This legend is just getting started, and we can’t wait to get our hands on his new album!
