Merk (ITA) – Walking On A Dream [Trick]

Hailing from Genoa, Merk started out collecting vinyl in his teenage years before spinning at local venues and producing his own music, which has since earned him several Beatport Top 10s and support from the likes of Jamie Jones, Solomun, and Patrick Topping. Arriving on the latter’s Trick imprint for the first time, Merk showcases his knack for crafting dancefloor-ready smashes as he flips the late noughties classic ‘Walking On A Dream’ by Empire Of The Sun into a raucous Tech House anthem.

“This track was created to give a club vision to a special vocal: it combines an aggressive bass with tech house drums. ‘Walking On A Dream’ represents a really important release for my career because I feel my style is so recognisable in it, and it makes me really connect with people every time I play it. In the meantime, seeing it already played and supported by top DJs at the best festivals and clubs in the world literally represents what I’m living for right now: I’m walking on a dream.” – Merk (ITA).
