Review: Dash Berlin & Rigby - Earth Meets Water

After announcing his new album (to be released this summer), Dash Berlin reveals the first gem from it – ‘Earth Meets Water’.  It’s no wonder that this song absolutely destroyed A State of Trance in Utrecht this year (and elsewhere).

Dash Berlin’s uncompromising commitment to epic vocals and driving beats has kept him afloat as one of the world’s highly regarded artists, with a very recognizable and captivating sound.

The sound of Dutch band Rigby could be described as sweet, pure, and full of bittersweet emotion.

There are enough musical areas where these two artists overlap to make for an outstanding collaboration, and it’s precisely the subtle differences in their respective sounds that make ‘Earth Meets Water’ so special.  The essence of both contributors is equally felt, and the pairing is nothing sho rt of awe-inspiring.

‘Earth Meets Water’ is a magical feeling that, if you’re not careful, can slip through your fingers like a fistful of sound…

Lyrics
Hold me tonight 
What happend to me 
My head in the clouds 
Fallen so deep 
You came in soft 
No shoes on my feet 
Cold and afraid 
It feels like I could break down 
Right here on this shore 
I'll go a straight 

Here I stand, 
Where earth meets water 
The wind blows smoke, 
across the land 
So hear me out, 
our lives get harder 
It slips through our fingers, 
like this fist full of sand 
like a fist full of sand 

Lay down tonight 
The stars as our spine 
Summer will fade 
And it feels like I will lose you, 
with each of the turning tides 
Till the first snow arrives 

So here I stand, 
Where earth meets water 
The wind blows smoke, 
across the land 
So hear me out, 
our lifes get harder 
It slips through our fingers, 
like this fist full of sand 

Here I stand, 
Where earth meets water 
It slips through our fingers, 
like a fist full of sand 

It slips through our fingers


Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the most beloved trance artists is of course the exceptional Dash Berlin who has until now produced some of the finest trance classics of all times, and his performances around the world are exceptional, with huge army of dedicated followers. Dash Berlin is the case of an artist that became what he is because of his strong fanbase and their involvement, and not because of huge hype machine around him. His first track from his forthcoming album is the excellent vocal single with Rigby called Earth Meets Water. We deal here with another future classic that will crossover to wide variety of DJ sets. It's the type of the track that has a strong pop appeal as a result of the excellent Rigby vocals and fantastic lyrics. The performance has that indie rock edge that works so well with EDM at the moment, and the lyrics are deep, meaningful and will resonate with many people's lives. The track contains the energetic vibes we get usually from Dash Berlin, with punchy drums, pumping vibrating basslines and huge hands in the air uplifting synths that will excite the crowds and drive them crazy without doubt. Very danceable production that is destined to have great impact on any dancefloor from epic prog house to big room / mainstage trance sets. If you love full vocal trance tracks, and not just short top lines, you are doing to adore it big time! #PureGold Love IT
