Oliver Heldens Teams up with Rising Star Anabel Englund on ‘Deja Vu’

A phat bassline groove with a rugged edge provides the backbone of the track along with typically punchy Heldens beats which are serenaded with Englund’s honeyed tones, which combine as the perfect foil!

The breakdowns and pre-choruses shine with muted chords, while the sunshine-drenched feel of the main hook is no surprise given that Englund lives in LA. “Working with Oliver has been so effortless and fun” she says. “This song happened so beautifully and I can’t wait to share it with the world.”

“When I first started working on this track in early 2019 I tried a couple of things for the vocals with different singers and songwriters, which were good, but I knew it could be better and more special. I’ve been a fan of Anabel’s music since 2013, and even more so during this pandemic hearing all of her new music, I knew she could be perfect for this track, so I sent the instrumental to her and luckily she was really into it and she came back with an amazing topline idea for the track.

We then met up in LA to finalize the song and recorded some extra hooky melodies, and after that, we were both even more convinced about this record, so we moved around some things in our release schedules to make this song our top priority because we think the world needs to hear it! Enjoy! :)”– Heldens.
