With over 110 remixes to his name—including tracks by Madonna (“Miles Away”), Katy Perry (“I Kissed A Girl”), Tegan & Sara (“Back In Your Head”), and La Roux (“Bulletproof”)—Morgan Page has earned a solid reputation for transferring insatiable pop energy to the dance floor in the form of banging, progressive house tracks. High ranking spots on iTunes’ dance chart, Beatport’s progressive chart, and Billboard’s club charts affirmed his salability, while an ’09 Grammy nomination for Deadmau5’s remix of Page’s “The Longest Road” simultaneously bolstered his underground cred while spotlighting his skills as a songwriter.
“Fight For You” is the album’s first single (currently #19 at Billboard Club), and is already being supported by world class DJs like Tiësto, Armin van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Dave Dresden and Hernan Cattaneo. With impassioned lyrics and swift, clean guitars, the track embodies Believe’s fragile yet faithful feel, pushing through wistful cinematic shades to the promise of something better up ahead.
“Believe is very dark, but I’m not a dark person at all,” Page explains. “I just lean towards these specific chords and melodies. Melancholy with a little bit of hope.”
Page wrangled some serious talent to help color the chords and melody he chose. Along with a familiar voice on the Pete York cover of “Strange Condition”, Page enlists the vocal talents of Telepopmusik’s Angela McCluskey, Matt Alber and Gabriel & Dresden alumnus Jan Burton. On he moody “In The Dark,” Page himself even takes a turn on the mic at the urging of another G&D contributor, Molly Bancroft.
Having long jettisoned his status as an up-and-comer, Page is ready to step into the next phase of his career, firmly joining the ranks of established “triple threat” DJs, producers, and remixers like Kaskade, Deadmau5, and Eric Pyrdz. It’s no surprise that the dance music scene is already buzzing about Believe.
