Of course you already know about this beauty! But of course I had to write about it too. The message of it is too strong to miss it. Paul Van Dyk ft. Plumb – Music Rescues Me is the track to properly start and make people talk about his 9th album, album with the same name.
After collaborating with Plumb for the perfect “I don’t deserve you” in 2012, this track is the perfect reunion of these amazing music people. ‘Music Rescues Me’s song is co-penned by the lyricist behind latter-day van Dyk anthem ‘Home’, Snow Patrol member and long-time personal friend, Johnny McDaid.
Paul & Plumb’s shared history reaches back three whole PvD albums, to ‘EVOLUTION’ and ‘I Don’t Deserve You’. Beloved by fans from both respective quarters, the pair stayed in close contact, looking for the right project to resume the partnership on. That came following a song-writing session between Paul and Johnny. “It took a little while, but, says Paul, in ‘Music Rescues Me’, I knew we had the right follow-up for Plumb”.
If you ask me, this track has the strongest message a track can have: Music rescues me. Music rescues us. I can’t even remember how many times listening to a track got me out of a dark place or made my day better. I think we all can’t see a life without music and we all have our stories to share. The track is simple, lyrics reach right to the heart and once you hit play you get to the right place: a place of happiness, of joy, of calm.
Set amidst epic, reverb-rich guitars strains and dynamic rhythms, ‘Music Rescues Me’ is a track whose rapturously positive-thinking/feeling chorus is only equalled by its imaginatively stimulating verses. Paul & Plumb’s ‘Music Rescues Me’ got out on September 14th through VANDIT Records. It’s available to stream/purchase here: https://lnk.to/PaulVanDyk_MRM
Alsooooooo, great achievement: Paul van Dyk received the Trance Master Award at the 21st annual DJ Awards. Right! Exactly what I am saying for years now. He is a trance master for a lot of us and the one that introduced us to this beautiful music. He deserved this award and deserves many more!
