Spanish producer Ian Ludvig returns to Edu Imbernon’s label Eklekstich with ‘By My Side’, marking a confident new chapter on a label that has been part of his journey since the very beginning.

Built around warm textures and a groove-led foundation, the original track delivers a refined house aesthetic that balances emotional depth with dancefloor functionality. It’s a production that feels equally at home in intimate club settings and larger spaces, driven by a sense of subtle tension and release that lingers long after the final note.

Stepping in on remix duties, Welsh duo Sonickraft bring their own distinctive perspective to ‘By My Side’, reshaping the track with an housey twist while preserving the spirit of the original. Their interpretation leans into dynamic arrangements and textured layers, adding a happier, and driving edge that elevates the track into peak-time territory.

The result is a remix that expands the identity of Ludvig’s original, offering a fresh lens while maintaining its emotional core, a delicate balance that Sonickraft execute with precision.

Altogether, the release stands as a strong statement from both artists and a fitting addition to the ever-evolving Eklekstich catalogue, where storytelling and club energy continue to intersect.

You can now listen to the full premiere of the Sonickraft remix of ‘By My Side’ exclusively on When We Dip Radio and the original track on our sister channel Dancefloor Romancer. Enjoy!
