Wobble Wednesday: Delerium – Days Turn Into Nights (Seven Lions Remix)

Returning from his Days To Come EP in October, Seven Lions released his new remix of Delerium’s “Days Turn Into Nights”. By now, most of us know that a lot of Jeff’s influences come from trance and Delerium is definitely not one to overlook, as they have been making music since the early 90′s. This remix is right at the level of most Seven Lions tracks, not only being a banger, but like nothing you’ve heard before due to having a sound like no other producer out there that is so captivating. Standing at 110 bpm, the tune has a moombahton feel to it while incorporating electro, trance and dubstep elements throughout.
