Grum was set to release Deep State on Anjunabeats in 2018.[22] The album’s first single, “Never Have to Be Alone”, had already been released in September 2018,[23] but the album release was postponed[24] until its release in November 2019, with many of its originally slated tracks either reworked, or completely cut for unknown reasons.[25]
In early 2020, Grum announced the launch of his own record label, titled Deep State Recordings, after his album of the same name.[26]
Human Touch, was originally his sophomore album due to be released in October 2013, but was delayed until April 2014. It was subsequently pushed back again to 2015. Additional singles from the album include “The Touch”, “Raindrops”, and “Sunday Blue Sky”. Human Touch remained unreleased until March 2021, when he announced that he had re-acquired the rights to the album, and was subsequently released in that same month on Deep State Recordings.
