Andain present an their new single "What It's Like" on the Black Hole imprint.
Josh Gabriel and Mavie Marcos are, as well all know, the driving forces behind the Andain alias. With a career that started in early 2000, it was their first single “Summer Calling” and the follow-up “Beautiful Things” that launched their name into instant celebrity. The famous Gabriel & Dresden Remix of "Beautiful Things" became a classic and nowadays boasts over 20 million views on Youtube.
Andain recently released artist album entitled "You Once Tolde Me" harvested the successful single "Promises" which appeared on many compilations, and reached #13 in SiriusXM’s BPM Top 51 of 2011. To support the album, the single "Much Too Much" was released, accompanied by a beautiful video directed by Jamie Redford. The follow up was “Turn Up The Sound”, which appeared in a filled to the rim remix package. "What It's Like", the brand new Andain single featured here today, now appears in two excellent remixes by John Dahlback and Loverush UK.
The version of "What It's Like" as we all know it from the album, is a superb, slow vocal pop song. For this remix package however, the original receives a massive overhaul. John Dahlback created a powerful electro house version with rolling synths, driving string and voice edits that will rock the dance floor. Loverush UK on the other hand envisioned a large, packed indoor event and hands all DJs a superb vocal trancer with subtle big room elements.

Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the finest projects in EDM history is of course the magnificent Andain that manage to bring high quality lyrics, heartfelt classy vocal performance and superbly crafted soundtrack to the EDM world and even to crossover to more mainstream audiences as well. Their latest single arrived on Black Hole and you know that the label is guarantee to find the most appropriate and quality remixers to transform the original into a first class weapon for the dancefloors. Firstly the Swedish house master John Dahlback goes for a full on epic monster size anthem with electroish basslines, chunky beats, irresistable grooves and on top in the breakdown the exceptional melodic theme combined perfectly with the mesmerizing vocals of Mavie. The result is a huge club bouncer that electro house djs will adore as will have immediate and fatal impact on their dancefloor. For the more trance focused djs the beloved UK based trance duo Loverush UK transform the original into a travelling balearic progressive trance beauty with blissful melodies and cool big room/prog house touches as well. Dreamy, groovy, sensitive, mesmerizing and peak time can be some of the words that can describe well this first class remix. I can imagine Armin van Buuren, Dj Tiesto and Ferry Corsten supporting this version. Love IT!
