Loud Luxury, the LA-based Canadian production and DJ duo of Andrew Fedyk and Joe Depace, is enjoying top 20 status this week with a track they released a year ago through Armin van Buuren’s record label, Armada Music (Sony).


“Body,” featuring vocalist Brando, debuted on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart at 49 and climbed into the top 20, selling a bundle and garnering massive streams. With Sony behind it now, the single is exploding at radio and is one of only two CanCon songs on the Canadian Hot 100, the other being Drake at No. 1 with “God’s Plan.”

Here’s what Loud Luxury has to say about their single: “‘Body’ is one of our favourite songs we’ve ever written. For us, it represents mixing the R&B and hip-hop that we listened to growing up in Toronto with a classic Loud Luxury Sound. We made it just for the late-night drives and getting into trouble in the city.”

On tour in the US now, the duo appears at Vancouver’s Celebrities Nightclub on April 28 and Whistler’s Maxx Fish the night following.

On March 30, Loud Luxury released a new song, “Sex Like Me” featuring Dyson.

Billboard Canadian Hot 100 & Billboard Canadian Albums Charts Undergo Methodology Changes for 2026

Below is an explainer on the charts’ new streaming weights.

Following the switch of the Billboard Canadian Albums chart to a new weighting methodology to match that of the United States-based Billboard 200, the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 songs chart has shifted to the updated paid to ad-supported 1:2.5 streaming ratio. This is effective with the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 chart dated Jan. 31, 2026

As previously reported, Billboard’s charts have added more weight to on-demand streaming to better reflect an increase in streaming revenue and changing consumer behaviors. As part of the change, paid/subscription on-demand streams continue to be weighted more favourably compared to ad-supported on-demand streams, with the ratio between the two tiers narrowing from 1:3 to 1:2.5 based on analysis of streaming revenue.
