The Chainsmokers released Baby on 16 October 2026, the electronic duo’s first record as independent artists. The single arrived after their departure from Columbia and Disruptor.
Baby follows the duo’s Columbia and Disruptor departure
Apple Music lists Baby as a one-song single released on 16 October 2026. The track is the duo’s first release outside their long-running Columbia and Disruptor arrangement. The listing places it in a catalogue that spans singles, EPs, albums and concert recordings.
An account of the release says the change followed 11 years with the two labels. The musicians said they were excited to experiment with future music after the move. That places Baby at the start of an independent phase rather than as a new project by either member. Both members remain together as The Chainsmokers.
The Chainsmokers combine electronic production and pop writing
The Chainsmokers are an American electronic duo made up of Alex Pall and Drew Taggart. Apple Music profile describes their work through EDM, pop songwriting, production and collaborations. The profile also presents them as artists who move between vocal-led songs and dance production. That combination places Baby within the duo’s established musical language while marking a change in release status.
Their catalogue includes the albums Memories...Do Not Open, Sick Boy, World War Joy, So Far So Good, Summertime Friends and Breathe. It also includes the EPs Bouquet and Collage, alongside singles such as Closer, Roses and Don’t Let Me Down. With Baby, the duo add another standalone release to that album and EP history.
Baby joins a catalogue of albums and singles
Apple Music lists Baby separately from the albums and EPs, identifying it as a single with one song. The release therefore sits between the duo’s familiar catalogue and their independent arrangement. As the first independent record, it connects the label change directly to a piece of music.
