UK alternative metal outfit Cypher16 have joined forces with industrial drum and bass powerhouse Zardonic for an explosive remix of ‘Push Through The Water’, out now.
Cypher16 frontman Jack Doolan first discovered one of Zardonic‘s tracks and was immediately captivated by its intensity and cinematic production. Inspired to dig deeper, he immersed himself in the catalogue, quickly became a fan, and reached out to discuss the possibility of working together.
After listening to Cypher16‘s music, Zardonic was instantly drawn to ‘Push Through The Water’, believing it was the perfect track to reinterpret. The idea gathered momentum fast, with Jack travelling to Europe to work alongside Zardonic in his studio, where the pair crafted a thrilling new incarnation of the song.
The result honours the emotional heart of the original while injecting Zardonic‘s unmistakable blend of industrial metal, drum and bass and cinematic sound design. Crushing rhythms, soaring melodies and relentless energy!
Originally written as a reflection on perseverance and pushing through life’s most difficult moments, ‘Push Through The Water’ carries a message of resilience and determination. Zardonic‘s remix elevates that spirit, transforming it into an anthem that is as emotionally powerful as it is sonically uncompromising.
“Discovering Zardonic’s music completely opened my eyes to another world of heavy electronic music,” said Jack Doolan. “I reached out because I loved what he was creating, and I never imagined it would lead to us working together in the studio. Watching ‘Push Through The Water’ evolve into something so powerful was an incredible experience.”
By merging Cypher16‘s progressive approach to alternative metal with Zardonic‘s globally recognised industrial drum and bass sound, the remix delivers a cinematic listening experience that bridges the worlds of rock, metal and electronic music.
‘Push Through The Water (Zardonic Remix)’ is available across all major streaming platforms now.
