A remix can often feel like a reconstruction; in the case of Tobias Bergson’s take on Nativalien’s ‘On & On’ featuring Pinwheel Valley, it feels more like a resurrection. Released on September 26, 2025, via Hot Soap Records, the track pivots from its original chill-house sensibility into a polished, club-ready anthem, rich in melodic depth and rhythmic patience.
Originally driven by bold piano hooks and a laid-back groove, the track’s emotive core is still present — but here, it is reshaped with subtle tension and atmospheric layering. Bergson retains the vocals, allowing them to float atop swirling synth arpeggios and clean, deep pulses that whisper the DNA of acts like Ben Böhmer, Tinlicker, or Yotto. The remix walks a tightrope between daytime serenity and late-night hypnosis, with an undercurrent of emotional urgency that builds steadily without ever spilling over.
Bergson’s production credits stretch far and wide, from collaborations on Armada and Universal Music Austria to praise from Mixmag, Electronic Groove, and YourEDM. With over 180 million streams, appearances on editorial playlists like Electronic Rise and Deep House Relax, and support from Don Diablo, Steve Aoki, and Lost Frequencies, he is no longer a rising artist — but a confirmed presence on the melodic circuit.
Nativalien — the alias of Qais Khoury of Pinwheel Valley — brings his own cross-cultural ethos to the table, rooted in time spent between Amman, London, Vancouver and Cyprus. His original version of ‘On & On’ shimmered with soul; Bergson simply reorients it toward the night, letting the track unfold as a seamless glide between introspection and groove.
In the producer’s own words: “Blending beautiful vocals with a touch of melodic techno. In the end, I’m really happy with how it turned out and excited to share it with you.”
