When Felix Jaehn the first time played with violin at the age six, showed his way in just one direction - music. At 15, he got his first DJ equipment and after one year he played his first sets in the clubs. So the native of Hamburg, piece by piece conquered the clubs of the North, the Republic and beyond its borders. A formative and crucial year for him was his stay in London. After being immersed so intense in the music, he did not want to return back. Since then, he mainly produces melodic Deep House, impresses mainly through melodious vocals and instrumental highlights. Because it's about emotions in music, Felix Jaehn is also served on the sunny side. For him there is no schema F, after which he goes on. He produces his music, as it feels good. And he is always right. His sound carries the predicate danceable, eventually fills Felix Jaehn the clubs in the main cities across the continent.
In 'Shine' accompany the house members the classical instruments like the piano and the saxophone. Above all is the enchanting voice of Linying.

Dimitri Kechagias review: As it seems Germany has found its official sound that currently exports to the world and that is deep house with electronic elements and crossover appeal. The superb single Shine by the newcomer Felix Jaehn featuring Freddy Verano & Linying is the next big thing that very soon will land at the top of the pop charts. The question is if it deserves it and the answer is simple and straight to the point. Shine is absolutely beautiful retro sounding record with laiback grooves, deep funky basslines, excellent piano melody and saxophone loops that will transfer you to another world. The track manage successfully to create the illusion of live performance that seems to be the weak point of dance music as people perceive it as very computer produced and that inevitably deducts its warmth and human element. Shine invite us to enjoy life to the fullest, think positive and keep the sunshine of the summer holidays in our hearts for ever. The world is in true mess at the moment with politicians who ruin the lives of many unemployed young people who fight back by being apolitical and searching for some moments of relation on tracks like this one. Its the kind of track that you can only enjoy in full along with your good friends. Rather than keeping yourself isolated behind the computer screen call some friends and go for a nice walk. The single includes beautiful alternative mix that remains on the same deep house direction with darker basslines and less vocals. Matoma remix is relaxing summery chillin eclectic house version with tribal grooves, deep basslines, warm strings, flute melodies, Balearic guitar riffs, saxophone hooks and variety of nice organic elements that add to the track its exotic fruity texture. Shine has all the right reasons to grow into a massive mainstream hit for the cold winter days. #PureGold Love IT
