Summary

The magnificent alternative rock band Walking On Cars from Ireland continue the tradition of high quality music coming from their beloved country. The track Catch Me If You Can considered to be one of their biggest songs with magnificent arrangement and of course vocals and lyrics that instantly the crowd wants to join the fun and start singing along. Now the exceptional Kid Arcade is on board for a beautiful melodic deep house version with electronic pop elements. Deep pulsating basslines, chunky grooves and great synthy themes that uplift your senses along with positive piano chords and guitar riffs that make it instantly a must play record for clubs and festival floors. Dark, moody, melancholic but deeply optimistic and celebratory of love and passion for life Kid Arcade respects the fantastic original and add his feel good atmosphere to give the track that superb sunkissed vibes perfect for your summer holidays. Highly recommended remix and original. I'm very impressed and I can see this band conquering the universe. Catch them if you can!! #PureGold Love iT
