Electronica Review: Kate Morgan - Pretty Delusions (Myon Remix) out on Ride Recordings

01. Kate Morgan - Pretty Delusions (Myon Remix)
02. Kate Morgan - Pretty Delusions (Myon Extended Remix)

With only a handful of releases to her name, (‘Pretty Delusions’ representing the second), through the left eye Kate Morgan’s a newcomer. Through the right? She’s amongst electronic music’s most prolific collaborators, having written, co-written and provided vocal aspects for some of its biggest names. Amongst them are The Chainsmokers, blackbear, Cher Lloyd, ILLENIUM, ZHU, DVBBS, Lena, and Gryffin, while she’s also scored a Dance Radio #1, with her co-write of Anabel Englund’s “Midnight Rapture”.

RIDE boss Myon sees her more through the left; an artist in her own right, at the earliest stages of her career, and with talent to burn. Having fallen for ‘Pretty Delusions’ within days of its spring release, he offered to lend it a remix-hand. 


Never losing sight of “Pretty Delusions” folk-flecked, guitar-tinged hometown reflections, Myon’s given it both the canniest and most heartfelt of floor treatments. Charged by a skipping breakbeat flow, undulant bass, and big sky melodies, it sonically patches a degree of the original’s days-gone-by lament with some future-perfect feels. 
Talking about the thoughts behind ‘Pretty Delusions’, Kate says: “as an artist my journey started playing local open mics and busking, and for a long time I wanted to run from that place. I suppose that represents some of my own “pretty delusions”. I always thought ‘happy’ would be another place, or level of success. As I’ve gotten older though, no matter where I go or what I do, part of me still feels like that teenager, desperate to know more of myself and the world. Stepping back into releasing my own music I wanted to touch base with that girl, and I sure am proud of this pretty place I call home.”
RIDE hits its 125th release in style, with Myon’s killer rework of ‘Pretty Delusions’. You can find it here from today …HERE

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Kate Morgan's Pretty Delusions gets the long awaited Myon Remix and the result is a stunning floating and flowing perfect for the summer Ibiza type of breaks version that will mesmerize you and win your heart straight away. The old skool influences and the irresistible breaks groove is merged with warm cinematic soundscapes and sentimental electronic synths, harps, organic orchestral strings plus impressive sound design that cast a spell on you and you feel obliged to press the button play again and again. Tranquil, sensitive, mysterious and magical when you add the incredible voice of Kate Morgan the result is an unforgettable early morning summer beauty when you search for that perfect sunrise. #PureGold Love iT [/content]
