Paul van Dyk and Ciaran McAuley combine forces to create a transcendent and euphoric new single “Someone Like You” - available to stream from VANDIT Records on July 28th.
“Someone Like You '' is an instantly classic - the signature van Dyk thumping 4/4 beat is ever present, driving a path to serenity with glorious atmospheres and synths that tingle throughout the soul. This is the definition of emotional instrumental electronic music at its finest.
“Someone Like You” comes at a time of tremendous activity for van Dyk. Earlier this month he kicked off the Ibiza season at SHINE Ibiza at Club Eden (he also released the club’s official anthem song, “Beautiful Life”), while earlier this year he launched his exciting new VENTURE X tour concept where this master DJ and curator sources from the finest trance, progressive house, and techno music available and brings it all together during one incredible evening. The rest of the summer will be filled with exciting new original releases and tour dates on the road toward van Dyk’s much-anticipated studio album, Off The Record.
As a standalone Producer/DJ and formerly as one half of renowned trance duo Walsh & McAuley, Ciaran (pronounced Kier-ran) McAuley has been responsible for some of the most scene-seizing music to arrive in the recent times and this talented Irishman is leading the charge of nu-breed talent breaking out into the mainstream. With the release of successful singles such as recent VANDIT single ‘Together We Rise’ and his most renowned tracks
‘All I Want’ and ‘You and I’, he is garnering support from fans and fellow artists worldwide.
Fans will be able to hear van Dyk play the track during his packed festival summer at Luminosity, Airbeat One, Sunrise Festival, Parookaville, Mind Festival, Nature One, Medusa, Mysteryland, Glücksgefühle, EDC China and many more. No doubt van Dyk and McAuley will be featuring the single when they play together at SHINE Ibiza at Club Eden, September 21st.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Paul van Dyk is always open to collaborate and his latest uplifting trance beauty is co-produced with Ciaran McAuley with the brilliant title Someone Like You. We deal with an instrumental uplifting trance production that sounds and smells summer breeze, sunshine, sea waves, magical nights in Ibiza and unforgettable sunrise moments on the dancefloor. Pulsating energetic basslines, thumping kicks and punchy drums combined with euphoric feel good VANDIT style synthy melodies, ethereal vocal samples and emotional touching strings. The climax is euphoric to the very maximum as it will be impossible not to be carried away from its exceptionally crafted crescendo moment perfect to let the inhibitions go and feel the music from head to toe until the sad eyes replaced from a big happy wide smile. Hopeful, optimistic, loving and caring beauty not to be missed. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
