Glockenbach has teamed up with British songstress Ella Henderson to create a unique, enticing track that balances a yearning journey with a dance tempo. “Lifeline” was released earlier this month via Astralwerks, following up Glockenbach’s previous collaboration with Joel Corry, Tenchi, and ClockClock on “Yeah.” Ella Henderson, known for stunning the nation with her time on The X Factor is the perfect compliment on “Lifeline,” tapping into deep emotions and exciting production.

Henderson’s vocals beside Glockenbach’s production can not even be called a team, but is fused together so well it is heard as one unit. He plays into the dips of her notes, catching her when the line falls off and launching her into the next one with zeal. The deeper keys allow her soulful voice to float, and the pace-keeping synth brings every element into one space, turning the track from catchy to danceable. The lyrics croon for a person one just can’t get enough of, someone they could never be apart from. Glockenbach’s detailed additions communicate the same note of need and desire. The upbeat tempo never falters, and this persistence proves the richness of the song’s atmosphere and creation.

The duo was bound to be incredible, combining a house genius with a vocal superstar. Ella Henderson released her debut album Chapter One in 2012, and since then she has made sweeping progress. She has released a second album, Everything I Didn’t Say And More, as well as collaborations with Sigma, Kygo, and David Guetta. Glockenbach, who brings an explosive energy to his DJ sets across the world, masterfully captures Henderson’s heart on this track. With his own productive touch, he navigates the musical communication of the right feelings at the right moments.
