Canadian dance music artist Murphy and Moroccan producer Rad Mils have released a new collaboration, “Wake Up,” a house song that is as fierce as it is fragile.
Wrapped in a haunting production, “Wake Up” is both an open wound and an invitation to dance. Mils delivers propulsive four-on-the-floor rhythms, while Murphy's lyricism evokes the hollow, all-too-familiar echo of morning-after loneliness.
Exploring disconnection and detachment, Murphy's anguished voice wafts like cigarette smoke in strobe lights, reflecting the cyclical nature of both dance music and grief. Together with Mils, he has woven a delicate web where euphoria and melancholy coexist, making it a perfect theme to get lost in and, paradoxically, find something profound.
To that end, “Wake Up” is dance music for the comedown, when the bass is still rumbling in your bones but your mind is already wandering to someone who isn't there. Wrapped in haunting production, it's the sound of glitter mixing with tears on a sweaty cheekbone: beautiful, messy and undeniably human.
