Lido and Alison Wonderland’s connection runs deep. The pair have been friends for years and worked together on Alison Wonderland’s smash ‘Cold’. It looks like their friendship and mutual respect has lead to something special for fans with the pair dropping remixes of each other’s work. Coming up first is Lido’s flip of the anthematic cut ‘Messiah.’ The track sees Lido’s vocals taking center stage. On Everything Lido proved his voice was one his strongest instruments and it’s great to see him continue to build upon it with a new release. The new lyrics are evocative and gripping, creating a more emotional vibe than the original. The way he bring Alison’s vocals back in and layers his own as a call in response is incredible. Don’t be surprised if you’re hitting replay on this one all day (I certainly have been).
Returning the favour comes Alison Wonderland’s flip of ‘Crazy.’ It breaks down the original, stretching the soundscapes for a sound that is less complex but just as beautiful. Where the original was the initial anxiety of experiencing a break up, the rework is catching your breathe afterword and looking outward at what may be next. Stream both below.
