The German DJ superstar and A-list producer Topic and Swedish producer, A7S once again proven their prowess in the electronic music scene with a striking rework of the globally celebrated 2019 track, ‘Breaking Me’. Released via Virgin Records, this VIP remix introduces Afro-House elements that breathe new life into an already iconic dance anthem. With the original having amassed over 6 billion streams, this VIP remix solidifies Topic’s and A7S’ ability to evolve and adapt to current trends while maintaining their signature sound.
The new mix enhances the pulsating beats of the original with a deep-groovy bassline, rich percussive textures, and a more soulful melody. By integrating these elements, Topic seamlessly fuses the global appeal of Afro-House with his emotionally-charged dance sound, creating a track that is both nostalgic and fresh. This new VIP remix reflects the sonic direction Topic embraced throughout this year, building on the foundation set by his recent hits ‘Out My Head’ and ‘I Adore You’. The result is a track that is both nostalgic and fresh, underscoring Afro-House’s growing global appeal while offering a unique twist to a beloved song.
Reflecting on the new rework Topic shares: “Revisiting ‘Breaking Me’ with A7S and infusing it with Afro-House elements has been such an exciting journey. The original track holds a special place in our hearts and for so many fans worldwide, so we wanted to create something that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Afro-House has such a deep, soulful energy, and blending it with our signature dance sound gave the song a completely new life. It’s amazing to see how music can evolve, and this remix reflects where we are creatively this year—pushing boundaries, embracing new influences, and staying true to the emotional core of our music.”
