I met Danmark-based Irishman Richard Farrell online when looking for vocals for one of my earlier tracks. We got along so famously that we decided to get together and form a permanent project, i.e. October Skies. We made an album which will be released later this year. Here's the first single of that. I did all music, Richard the singing. Call it sci-fi pop. Call it whatever you want. Heart & soul.

This track is well suited for dancefloor use, and has a catchy chorus. It was not specifically intended to be dance music though. Expressing a positive mood on the other hand, yes, please. It has everything to become a firm summer radio favourite and might just become a rent-free inhabitant of your psyche.
