Oliver Heldens is back on his own Heldeep Records imprint with a captivating new collaboration alongside UK producer Aevion titled ‘Amnesia.’ This track masterfully blends crisp UK garage grooves with mellow house atmospheres, offering a dancefloor-ready sound that’s sure to resonate with fans.
The origins of ‘Amnesia’ trace back to a moody piano progression and an instantly catchy vocal phrase. After a year of creative exchange between Heldens and Aevion, the two of them were able to refine and evolve the track into its final, polished form. The result is a sleek, emotionally resonant piece that feels perfectly suited for both exhilarating peak-time sets and more introspective dancefloor moments.
“The moment I heard the combination of the organic, melancholic piano and the catchy, powerful vocal sample in a demo that my super talented friend Aevion sent me last year, I felt right away that this could become a special track,” Heldens says, “Working on the demo with Aevion was a lot of fun as we turned it into a modern Trance meets (Speed) Garage kind of tune while keeping it pretty timeless and somewhat mellow/atmospheric, not too big-room and ‘speedy’. We think it has the perfect balance, and even if it’s not a ‘crossover dance hit’, we believe it’s the kind of track we’ll still be very proud of in the far future.”
Aevion adds, “It was a demo I created a while back, it was part of a package of demos I sent over to Oliver and the heldeep team around May last year. Oliver liked the original “Amnesia” demo and decided to experiment with different layers, including the bass and drums. We have been back and forth with the record for over a year now, but I’m thrilled with the final result! Sounds huge.”
