The massive tune immediately kicks off with elongated soundscapes, paired perfectly in unison with the faint humming of various synths. A larger-than-life ambiance permeates throughout, leaving the listener in a state of sheer awe and wonder. A hard-hitting beat enters the space, and is quickly followed by an energetic four-on-the-floor beat that is audibly rife with palpably raw emotion. Techno-leaning production elements characterize the majority of the release, effortlessly providing it with a darker tinged tone from start-to-finish. A dancefloor-ready anthem, it prominently features all the best hallmarks of a quintessential Purple Haze release and serves as a prime follow-up to the rest of Sander’s 2021 back-catalog.
