Okay, real talk: when the drop hits at 1:42 on “Fly Away,” I actually got goosebumps in my living room. That’s not an exaggeration. ASPEN, Dean Walker, and the golden-throated Jordan Grace just handed us the melodic techno anthem we didn’t know we desperately needed as 2025 comes to a close.
If you’ve been craving that perfect sweet spot where festival energy collides with genuine emotion, stop scrolling and press play. This track is pure elevation.
The Sound That Makes You Feel Weightless
From the very first shimmering chord, “Fly Away” wraps you in warm, atmospheric pads before Jordan Grace’s vocal slides in like sunshine through club smoke. His voice—yes, the same one you’ve heard on Martin Garrix, Steve Aoki, and Armin van Buuren records—carries this effortless mix of vulnerability and triumph. When he sings “we can fly away,” you believe him. Like, pack-your-bags-and-leave-earth believe him.
Then ASPEN and Dean Walker do what they do best: they build. And build. And build. Layering arpeggios that sparkle like city lights at 3 a.m., driving bass that rattles your chest, and percussion that feels engineered for mainstage confetti cannons. It’s melodic techno with zero filler—just 5 minutes and 30 seconds of constant forward motion that somehow still leaves room to breathe. The breakdown at 3:50? I’m not crying, you’re crying.
Who Are These Guys Again?
ASPEN has been Miami’s best-kept secret weapon for years, the guy you see absolutely sending the crowd into a frenzy at Club Space or Do Not Sit on the Beach, then somehow spot him again two weeks later melting faces in Bali or Ibiza. With previous PYRO Records hits like “Deeper” and “Love You Like That” already racking up millions of streams, he’s proving he’s not just a killer DJ—he’s a producer with serious vision.
Dean Walker, his partner-in-crime on this one, is the definition of “having a moment.” Fresh off a collab with literal legend Snoop Dogg (yes, really), Dean’s been jet-setting from Futuric Festival in Morocco to Sonorama in Colombia, leaving dance floors in ruins everywhere he goes.
And Jordan Grace? Over 150 million Spotify streams don’t lie. The man could sing the terms and conditions and we’d still hit repeat.
Why “Fly Away” Feels Different in 2025
We’re deep into the melodic techno renaissance right now—think ARTBAT, Anyma, and Tale of Us vibes—but “Fly Away” stands out because it never forgets the song underneath the sound design. This isn’t just a DJ tool (though it’ll absolutely destroy any Afterlife-style set). It’s a proper vocal record that works at sunset on the beach, 4 a.m. in the warehouse, or—let’s be honest—when you’re stuck in Monday traffic needing an escape hatch.
PYRO Records keeps delivering these crossover gems that radio wants to play and underground heads actually respect. Add “Fly Away” to that winning streak.
Final Verdict
If you’re into melodic techno, dance pop with actual feelings, or just music that makes you wanna throw your hands up and disappear into the sky, you owe it to yourself to live inside this record for the next month. It’s the kind of track that soundtracks life-changing nights… or at least makes the gym slightly more bearable.
