LyricsFor all those lost and broken hearted onesDancing away all your sorrowChasing highs and always on the runSave your tears for tomorrowWe’re the ones that will love way too hard till we fall apart and maybe we’ll never learnAnd bridges burn we get hurt and we go back to the start and that’s just the way it worksOhhHeaven knows that you’re wild oneAnd I can see you burning through the nightDon’t ever hide your super powersDon’t ever hide your loveOhhHeaven knows that you’re wild oneYeah you keep living like you’ll never dieDon’t ever hide your super powersDon’t ever hide your loveDon’t ever hide your loveFor all those nights when you don’t get no sleepWhen there’s no way to let goWhen all your dreams are somewhere hard to reachAll you can hear is the echoWe’re the ones that will love way too hard till we fall apart and maybe we’ll never learnAnd bridges burn we get hurt and we go back to the start and that’s just the way it worksOhhHeaven knows that you’re wild oneAnd I can see you burning through the nightDon’t ever hide your super powersDon’t ever hide your loveDon’t ever hide your loveDon’t ever hide your loveDon’t ever hide your loveDon’t ever hide your loveOhhOhhOhh

[item value="10"]TELYKAST x Oaks - Super Powers (Giuseppe Ottaviani Remix)[/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Giuseppe Ottaviani's remix of ‘Super Powers’ by TELYKAST and Oaks is a masterful reinterpretation that infuses the original with an electrifying 135 BPM mainstage trance energy. Ottaviani, a stalwart in the trance scene known for his meticulous production techniques, elevates the track through a combination of dynamic sound design and expert arrangement. The remix opens with a robust, rolling bassline that sets a firm foundation, immediately pulling the listener into its driving rhythm. Ottaviani employs a powerful kick drum layered with tight, punchy percussion, creating a sense of relentless momentum. The bass is sculpted using sidechain compression, allowing it to breathe in sync with the kick, maintaining clarity even at high energy levels. As the track progresses, Oaks’ emotive vocals are seamlessly integrated, treated with subtle reverb and delay to create a spacious, atmospheric feel without losing intimacy. Ottaviani uses vocal chops and pitch modulation techniques to enhance the dynamic range, adding layers of texture and emotional depth. The euphoric synth hook is a standout feature, crafted with rich, detuned saw waves that are characteristic of classic trance. Through the use of advanced modulation, including LFO-controlled filter sweeps and automated reverb tails, Ottaviani injects a sense of ascending energy that peaks during the drop. The melodic progression is both uplifting and anthemic, supported by harmonically rich pads and arpeggiated sequences that cascade with brilliance. In the breakdown, Ottaviani strategically strips back the elements, allowing the melody and vocals to shine. He employs reverb swells and white noise risers, enhancing the build-up's tension before the final drop explodes with full force. The careful EQing and stereo imaging techniques ensure each element occupies its space, resulting in a polished, festival-ready sound. This remix is a testament to Ottaviani’s production prowess, blending technical precision with emotional resonance. It's a track designed to captivate audiences on the world’s biggest stages, embodying the essence of mainstage trance with #PureGold execution. LoveIT[/content]
