A Comeback That Hits All the Feels
Ever hear a track that feels like it’s washing over you, blending raw emotion with a beat you can’t resist? That’s Waterfall, the stunning new single from Ahmed Spins and GRAMMY-winning Elderbrook, dropped on April 9, 2025. After nearly three years since his 100M-streamed Anchor Point EP, Ahmed’s back with a progressive house, organic house, and deep house banger that’s pure magic. With melodic house vibes ruling festivals and playlists in 2025, this collab is a perfect storm of soul and groove. Let’s unpack why Waterfall is a must-listen and get to know the artists making waves!
The Flow of “Waterfall”
Waterfall opens with a delicate piano melody that’s like a soft sunrise, instantly pulling you into its world. Elderbrook’s soulful vocals slide in, warm and emotive, singing of life’s highs and lows with lyrics like “Falling like a waterfall, high and low”—a metaphor for the ebb and flow we all feel. Ahmed Spins builds the track masterfully, layering organic house’s earthy textures with progressive house’s euphoric energy. The beat swells with crisp percussion and a deep, rolling bassline, hitting that sweet deep house spot that makes your body move and your heart ache. By the time the crescendo drops, it’s intimate yet epic, like a festival moment under open skies.
The production is Ahmed’s signature—minimal but powerful, with every element feeling intentional. There’s a nod to his Afro house roots in the organic rhythms, but the track leans into melodic house’s emotional pull, evoking Flume’s dreamy vibes or Rampa’s hypnotic grooves. Elderbrook’s voice is the perfect counterpoint, turning the song into a dancefloor anthem that’s as moving on headphones as it is in a club. It’s no wonder X posts are buzzing, with fans calling it “a Coachella must-hear” and “the comeback we didn’t deserve.” At 5:34, per Elektrobeats, it’s got room to breathe, perfect for DJs spinning sunrise sets or late-night vibes.
Ahmed Spins, a Moroccan DJ/producer, is a sonic storyteller who’s played alongside Black Coffee and Peggy Gou, with his Anchor Point EP racking up over 100M Spotify streams. When he’s not crafting hits, he runs Deep House Bible, a platform amplifying emerging artists globally, hosting events from NYC to St. Tropez. Elderbrook, a GRAMMY-winning UK artist, brings his knack for introspective lyrics and atmospheric dance music, fresh off his 2024 album Another Touch. Together, they’ve created a track that’s both a personal reflection and a universal call to let go, set to shine at Coachella 2025.
Melodic and progressive house are dominating 2025, with playlists like Spotify’s Mint and Apple Music’s New in Dance packed with emotional bangers. Waterfall fits right in, its organic feel and festival-ready energy echoing artists like Lane 8 or CamelPhat. The press release notes two years of refining this track, and it shows—every note feels earned. Fans on X are hyping its “timeless” vibe, and with TikTok ripe for cinematic montages to its soaring chorus, this could blow up fast.
