Digital Rush & Mhammed El Alami - Wonderlust

Release Date
52 x50 VANDIT Records 16 March 2018
Description
The operative word around VANDIT parts of late has been ‘teamwork’. Within the last four weeks, that’s given us Alex M.O.R.P.H. & Mark Sherry on ‘Magnetar’, as well as the reteaming of Paul van Dyk & Alex M.O.R.P.H. on ‘Breaking Dawn’. In-line-with, we have another force multiplier for you this week in the paired-up form of Digital Rush & Mhammed El Alami.

Nu-guns they maybe, but this isn’t quite the first time we’ve heard from at least one of our protagonists. Seasoned VANDIT-watchers will recognise Mhammed as the man who mixed Alex M.O.R.P.H & Woody Van Eyden’s ‘Dreamcatcher’ to the heavens last year.

Memories of that floor splash were front-and-centre in our minds when their collaborative debut landed. Mere minutes after it arrived ‘Wonderlust’ was on the office sound-system and its signature ink was dry within the day!

With melodic chime, superheated chords, pads to match and journeying synth flow, up top ‘Wonderlust’s all about spring-beckoning harmonics. Don’t let those first-listen ears deceive you though! Beneath all this beauty beats the heart of a genuine floor beast! Recursive drum-drive, resolute bass and beautifully arranged & mixed percussion zone it comfortably to the later-night spin.
