This song is one of my favorites from the new album "A Song Across Wires". I wrote this track on acoustic instruments (guitar, a six string fretted cello I had built that's like a bass or baritone equivalent of the viola de gamba, glockenspiel and others). Tydi and I worked together on the track (beats and bass) over email and eventually in person. We had a blast in the studio on this and eventually the culmination of these efforts was sent in a rough state to the country artist Plumb.

She wrote a wonderfully simple and catchy vocal. We worked with this vocal for a while and it became apparent after some time that her management and representatives had a different idea about what this song should be and what it should be for so we began looking for new singers (still bummed about this, Plumb is a great artist).

Enter Tanya Zygar. She is friends with Tydi and we sent her the track and she wrote a beautiful verse melody. I sang a multi-track chorus top line and sent it back to her. We went back and forth with iterations of lyrics and eventually settled on a nautical theme (which I love). Stem the Tide is an expression originally used to mean that a ship was sailing against the tide fast enough to make headway over the ground or to move faster than the tide in the opposite direction. 

I spend about a week after all this doing vocal editing, glitching and comping and eventually laid the vocal into the final mix.

All said and done, this song probably took in work hours the better part of 2 months. I worked on in in Logic 6.43 on a 24bit PT rig (OS9), OS X Logic 7 and 9, Live 8 and 9 and was stem printed from Logic 9. 

My favorite thing about it is the acoustic instruments playing in tandem to the analog synths, plugins and glitch elements. Very proud to share this one with you.

▼ Release Tracklist:
01 Vintage & Morelli feat. Arielle Maren - Awaken

It will be difficult for Vintage & Morelli to surpass 2016, a year that included the release of his internationally acclaimed debut artist album, "My Rose Enchanted Destiny," as well as various Above & Beyond-supported singles. Yet, as the Belgrade-based sensation prepares to embark on various global tour dates, including a mini-tour of Australia, he thrillingly presents "Awaken," his first new single of 2017 and his most recent collaboration with celebrated singer-songwriter Arielle Maren. Not surprisingly, the track once again demonstrates V&M and Arielle's breathtaking musical chemistry.

Vintage & Morelli wastes no time in asserting his many gifts: in the early going, a deep, emotive, almost "exotic" soundscape sits behind an infectious groove. (The dynamic beat would elicit involuntarily head-bobbing from the most rhythmically rigid listener.) At the quarter turn, following a series of teaser vocal stabs, Arielle's heartfelt opening verse enters the mix. Her gift for writing intelligent and introspective lyrics is once again on display, not to mention her achingly beautiful vocal delivery. The deep, mysterious mood of the song's patient and introductory build eventually gives way to an anthemic chorus, led by Arielle's interrogative refrain, "Who Will Save The Day?" Vintage & Morelli responds by unleashing melodic fury, courtesy of a euphoric, stadium-rocking drop.

[MAU50207] Rhett & ATTLAS - Crater

Hello to all! My new tune on Armin van Buuren label A State Of Trance with Mike Schmid called ‘This Fire’ single is now available on all stores.

THIS FIRE

This fire, it burns so high
It's higher with every fight
I don't know if we'll survive it (no no no)
I don't wanna fuel this fire (no no no)

When I touch your skin I feel the pain ignite
Every single day we're burning up we're burning up and
When you look into my eyes you see it glowing
Every single day we're burning up we're burning up

We feel it beneath our feet
Maybe we like the heat
Oh, can we put down our matches
Oh, before we're reduced to ashes?

Here’s the linkfire for you which leads to the most important stores: https://ASOT521.lnk.to/TF
