Laidback Luke gets everyone ready for the spring and summer months with a sultry remix of Zach Heckendorf‘s “Waves.”
Since first breaking onto the scene at the age of 16, Zach Heckendorf has been carving out his space with each passing release. Touring the US to play shows at iconic venues like Red Rocks and more, his latest album HAWK TALK drew the attention of tastemakers and his growing fanbase alike with its pop-infused dance style front and center. Now, he’s looked to legendary artist Laidback Luke to put his spin on one of the standout singles from the album, “Waves.”
The remix kicks off with a captivating melody and bassline that you simply can’t help but move your body to. It offers up vibes that will immediately transport listeners to a warm summer night spent at open-air clubs with a cool drink in their hand – something we’ve all been missing over the past year.
Laidback Luke‘s take on “Waves” flows like the Pacific, washing over the ears with build-ups and come-downs in an almost effortless manner. The pop-fueled melody and relatable lyrics make for a head-bobbing catchy cut which surely will find its way into playlists for some time to come. Simply put, this remix is refreshing.
It was a real honor to work with a DJ/producer as legendary as Laidback Luke for my first official remix. Luke’s version of “Waves” gives a nod to the reggaeton that inspired the original song, while also pushing it into the electronic dance space. “Waves” is about gracefully moving through societal collapse, so I just love the image of people dancing to this remix while we move through the seismic shifts we’re all experiencing.
