Classic Trance vibes are taking center stage once again! Berlin-based duo DJ HEARTSTRING has officially teamed up with Australian band DMA’S and the vocal talent of Saidah for their latest banger, “A Thousand Lies.”
Released last month via Steel City Dance Discs, this track brings back the underground rave days to today’s festivals!
Moody Visuals Straight Out of Prague
It’s worth mentioning that the song’s launch coincided with stunning visuals. Co-directed by Joey Knox and David Tse, and produced by the acclaimed Stink Films, the visual companion was shot entirely on location in Prague, the capital and largest city of the Czech Republic.
Without a doubt, the city’s cinematic, late-night backdrop serves as the amazing aesthetic match for the track’s mood: fast, beautiful, and deeply immersive.
Rave Energy Meets Deep Melody
“A Thousand Lies” doesn’t waste any time getting to the point. Packed with fast-paced BPMs, driving basslines, and bright, shimmering synths, this tune leans heavily into the signature emotional Trance vibes that DJ HEARTSTRING has spearheaded over the last few years.
It’s a relentless, peak-time anthem designed to make crowds move, but it carries a deep melodic warmth that keeps it from feeling purely industrial.
Before its official release, this cut was a heavily anticipated ID within the electronic community. The track had already been circulating worldwide as a secret weapon in headline sets.
The Power of an Unexpected Collaboration
What makes this release truly stand out from standard club fare is its brilliant, multi-layered vocal collaboration. On one side, you have Tommy O’Dell, the frontman of DMA’S, offering his distinct, Indie-pop vocal texture to the mix.
Also, Saidah’s spoken-word elements cut through the mix, contrasting with O’Dell’s melodic hooks. This blend of driving poetry and soaring vocals gives the track a unique storytelling edge. It proves that energetic electronic music can still carry a lot of soul.
Not to mention, it follows DJ HEARTSTRING’s recent run of joint efforts with acts like southstar and KETTAMA.
In short, “A Thousand Lies” is worth your attention. Whether you are blasting it through headphones on a late-night drive or catching it peak-time in a sweaty warehouse, those undeniable Trance vibes are guaranteed to take over.
