Kicking off with a phasing piano accompaniment, 'Hideaway' sets the way for the introduction of
Frida Sundemo's mesmerising vocals. Intensified with a solid four-on-the-floor kick and a subby bass-line, the verse transcends into a 16th-feel bridge, displaying intricate processing on the vocals. A House inspired instrumental section takes over, offering a showcase of
Rasmus Faber's refined musical taste before giving way to the smooth vocal-led section once again, alternating in between instrumental pieces. The slow, dreamy aura is an imposing element within this single, making it a true House-Pop wonder.
The remix gig for 'Hideaway' was left in the hands of Swedish compatriot
Lucas Nord. A producer, musician and DJ of immense skills and talent,
Lucas Nord has recently come to the limelight for his appearance on ToveLo's album, a gesture she repaid by later featuring in his works. He is the perfect artist for this job, and his credits speak for themselves, having been signed to A-list labels such as: Ultra, Hybris, HK Records, Fierce Angel, Farplane Records, Joia Records and Perfecto Records to name a few.
Starting with a synth-pop inspired, slow vocal intro, the remix heads into a leftfield, uplifting section, driven by syncopated 16th-feel drums and an array of effects. A mellower verse is then introduced, featuring a typical Pop and Hip Hop inspired drum beat, serving as a base for the phasing synth melodies and
Frida Sundremo's vocal acrobatics. The vocal melodies dabble into rhythmic, effects and harmonic roles whilst
Lucas Nord shows-off his immense dynamic control, altering beats and energy levels to make changes to the overall feel of the track, making this remix a distinctive, complimenting song to the original.
