On remix duty we have Vaali with yet another truly unique interpretation of an original. Vaali follows on from his recent Double A-sided single Aura / Lost (SIT 176) with this genuinely sensational remix. This time out Vaali offers up things in a more uplifting style than his recent work and it delivers with some effect! He adds his own inimitable production finesse to the fineries of the original, along with beautiful atmosphere and a brilliant structure, and it all adds up to a truly superb track. Another exceptional addition to Vaali's immense discography, and surely a late contender for 2020's tune of the year!
