The North East England producer channels classic trance influences with his follow-up appearance on the Dreamstate label, an uplifting single showcased through a modern, peak-time lens.
MDDLTN returns to Dreamstate Records with his first-ever standalone single, “The Moments,” slated for release on January 16th. Tapping into classic trance from his formative years the track offers a fix of nostalgia with a markedly modern framework fit for massive festivals and sweat-slathered club floors.

Paying tribute to a period of trance that shook the electronic scene at its core, “The Moments” is a record sculpted by iconic sounds that shaped MDDLTN’s sonic palate into what it is today. It’s a euphoric, uplifting track featuring a pitch-bending Roland synth lead reminiscent of the guitar-tinged sounds that transformed Ibiza into a veritable mecca for electronic music in the ‘90s. He rehashes the meowing style melodies with lightning-fast percussion, hard bounce basslines, squelchy fills, and soaring arpeggiated textures.
Speaking to the inspiration he drew from while constructing his new single, MDDLTN shares, “This record blends the high-impact sound of modern dancefloors with the nostalgic spirit of the early 2000s. It’s a fresh, dynamic mix designed to light up big rooms and festivals.”
Blowing up from the North East England rave scene, MDDLTN is a UK producer currently enjoying an astronomical ascent. He’s celebrated for having a refined ear well beyond his years, amounting to a timeless yet modern fusion of trance, hard house, techno, and seminal rave music. Last year, he made his first appearance on the Dreamstate label with his “Cala Vida” collab with Karl Mac as part of the ‘Convergence Vol. 5’ compilation EP, which garnered support from media outlets including Find Your Sounds, Modern Neon, and Perspective.
MDDLTN’s music has enjoyed radio support from A State of Trance and BBC Radio 1, alongside tastemaker plays from Hannah Laing, Ferry Corsten, Amelie Lens, Maddix, David Rust, Ben Gold, Holy Priest, ALT8, and Kimmic. On the live front, the UK sensation continues to build momentum with an upcoming performance at Trance In The Woods Festival, following previous appearances at Hï Ibiza, Ibiza Rocks, Custom House Square, and Stages Festival.
With “The Moments,” MDDLTN reimagines a classic dream trance sound with his own signature twist, reinforcing his place at the forefront of trance’s new generation.
MDDLTN’s new single “The Moments” is available on all platforms via Dreamstate Records.
