A frontline figure in dance music, Ferry Corsten turns to his own catalogue in his continuous quest of sonic innovation on new single ‘Stay Awake.’ FeaturingDutch singer and songwriter Diandra Faye, ‘Stay Awake forms the latest instalment of Ferry’s 2024 album Connect and is out now on Flashover Recordings.

Lead by the transcendental vocals of Diandra Faye, ‘Stay Awake’ instantly seduces the listener into a realm of progressive builds, swirling euphoria and a rolling bassline embellished with a medley of slick synths and cultivates in one super-charged bass-driven drop.

Meanwhile, all-consuming feelings of getting lost in the haze of an underground club can be accredited to borrowed elements of ‘Air,’ a 1998 release under Ferry’s Albion moniker. Embracing the mantra of his globally celebrated What The F repertoire show, the original club sound of ‘Air’ is rehashed, remixed, and reinvented with a futuristic approach. Forming the foundations of this uplifting contemporary dance number.

One listen to the topline demo and ‘Stay Awake’ was in motion, adding Ferry to Diandra’s impeccable list of previous collaborators including Markus Schulz and Blasterjaxx.
