Dirty South & Thomas Gold ft. Kate Elsworth – Eyes Wide Open (Original Mix)
The trio that created the masterpiece “Alive” provides us with a sequel called “Eyes Wide Open.” Needless to say, this
is going to kick some serious ass at the Beatport box office and be played everywhere and anywhere. The production quality is impeccable and Kate Elsworth’s voice carries over this track beautifully. Even the toughest progressive house critics will have to sit back and enjoy what both Dirty South and Thomas Gold have done. The track has the right amount of power (during the drop) to make even the electro fans smile a bit. This will be one of the top 50 tracks of the year – guaranteed.

Given that Dirty South and Thomas Gold are my absolute favorite DJs/producers in progressive, I think my expectations were way too high for this track. I’m kind of dissapointed/unimpressed actually. It’s literally the same ‘Walking Alone-inspired’ melody the entire time. I mean it’s a great melody, very emotional like Dirty South was shooting for. I suppose it’s the lyrics that’s supposed to make the track so great. Looks like I need to let it settle with me, nice write-up.
It did remind me of “Walking Alone.” Does this song get bonus points for Kate Elsworth being unbelievably gorgeous?
Hahaha smokeshow of the week for sure! That should be a new feature. Yeah I don’t know what my bone is with that song, I just think they could’ve messed with the pitch of their main melody some more. I feel like it’s kinda the same emotional/borderline depressing energy the whole time ya know?
