Donna Lewis and David Lowe continue the emotional journey of their forthcoming album 'Wanderlust' with 'Meet Me'. A luminous, bittersweet slice of late-90s / early-2000s electro-pop.
Built on percussive synth pulses, delicate guitar strumming, ethereal vocal layers and staccato string motifs,'Meet Me' channels the emotional DNA of early electronic classics. Evoking the hopeful melancholy of ATB's 9 PM, Alice Deejay's Better Off Alone and Robert Miles' Children. It's a sound rooted in nostalgia, yet strikingly fresh!
Lyrically, the single captures the charged stillness of anticipation: two people suspended in a moment, meeting 'under the floodlights' in liminal space between certainty and possibility. The song's imagery, silence, light, hypnotic repetition, mirrors the emotional intensity of first connection, when time seems to pause and everything else fades away.
Following the exploratory fire of Burning Man, the social reckoning of Where Is The Love and the warmth of Coming Home,'Meet Me' represents another chapter in Wanderlust's unfolding narrative: the pull toward connection, the courage to step into vulnerability and the beauty of waiting for magic to arrive.
The 4th single from Wanderlust reclaims a form of hopeful yearning that electronic music hasn't embraced in years. A reminder of a time when electronic music dared to be openly romantic.
