International trio under:tones introduce themselves with poise and clarity on “Dreaming (Wide Awake)”, the lead single from their upcoming debut album Encounters. Blending tactile production with evocative songwriting, the track balances dancefloor rhythm with emotional depth — a sound that feels both expansive and intimate.
Written and recorded between California, the UK, and Italy, “Dreaming (Wide Awake)” reflects the group’s cross-border ethos. There’s a tangible warmth in the production: analog synths pulse beneath Reeves’ featherlight vocals, while subtle percussion and cinematic textures build a sense of movement and longing. The result is a track that captures the fleeting quality of memory — nostalgic, radiant, and quietly transportive.
As the first release on Through The Void Records — a new label dedicated to forward-thinking, emotionally resonant electronic music — the single also serves as a statement of intent. under:tones are not interested in genre boundaries; instead, they offer immersive storytelling through sound, drawing on house, ambient pop, and leftfield electronica.
“Dreaming (Wide Awake)” is a confident step forward for a project that places feeling at the forefront. It suggests Encounters will be definitely a journey to remember.
