Ascendants are back and better than ever with one of the slickest house tunes we’ve heard in a hot minute. They’ve made their signature mark on “Dreamin'” by Bells and Robes with an irresistible and elegant rendition that is just as much essential pop listening as it is a stellar example of what good house music can accomplish. Short but sweet flourishes of xylophone flutter over the deep groove and swirling synths cooked up by Ascendants while Miranda Realino holds her own with a vibrant vocal, bringing the whole song together in a clean and cohesive fashion. There’s an air of experience within this remix that you don’t always feel this early in a career, and Ascendants’ simpler but dynamic approach continues to be refreshing.

Following up their debut performance at III Points in Miami, this Florida-based duo is already showing up strong by reinforcing this initially calm Bells and Robes original into a fluid formulation of R&B, pop, and electronic music that’s primed and ready for countless listens and endless dancing. If you’re looking to keep the party going, be sure to check out their own original, “Drifting”, also!
