Release Info:
Sturge brings you his latest masterpiece, Wanted To Fly, fresh from his Ibiza studio. Released by Musique de Lune on 3rd October, Wanted To Fly features two very special remixes by acclaimed producers Jim Rider and Joe Miller.

DJ, live artist, and producer Sturge, originally from Belfast, is now based in Ibiza after spending over a decade in London. He has been DJing and promoting electronic music parties across Europe and beyond for many years, from Belfast to Burning Man, and London to Berlin. As one of the curators for the Celtic Chaos stage at the Burn, he takes equal pride in his curation as much as in his DJ sets.

Sturge’s first mainstream release was What Were The Skies Like When You Were Young, on Musique de Lune in summer 2024. This stunning 5-track EP, featuring the lead track and four remixes, went straight into the Beatport Top 10.

Press play on Wanted To Fly and you are instantly taken to a crisp, clear soundscape high in the sky. The bassline captures your imagination straight away, like a warm valve glowing against the metronomic kick beat. The scale here is cinematic, the space between the notes as important as the notes themselves. From here, Sturge builds the intensity, huge synth raptors cry overhead as you climb into a stratosphere where electric and organic sounds blur into one, layers of subtle synth adding to the already palpable atmosphere. And then the first lyric. “I just wanted to fly.’ Just beautiful stuff.

The remix from Jim Rider (All Day I Dream, Get Physical…) is sensational. Liquid agogos adding the perfect percussion and vocal fx to take you from up into the clouds to a dark, smoke machine filled dancefloor. It stays true to Sturge’s original mix, adding without subtracting. The synth riff is something quite special on its own.

Joe Miller (Anjunadeep, All Day I Dream…) takes you on a flight with some beautiful and unexpected detours, off-beat drum patterns and trippy, strobe fuelled arpeggiation blisses you out. Glitchy break beats and waves of electronic euphoria leave you smiling in the chill-out area. If Wanted To Fly was the main theme from a movie, these three thoughtful and skilled maestros show how one perfect piece of inspiration can evoke multiple emotions.
