The latest offering from Peter Lix and the Dojo Audio stable, Fade Away is an energetic Drum & Bass workout with emotive melodies and an alluring vocal hook.

Through pensive chords, bittersweet guitar phrases, subtle sweeps and reverb-heavy fx, the track creates a dreamy vibrance that floats over solid drums and a driving sub bassline.
