Mees Salomé reimagines Paradoks’ 2025 single with a tranquil, sunrise-inspired interpretation on Purified Records
Following his celebrated label debut ‘Colourblind’ with Chris Howard, leading Dutch melodic house artist Mees Salomé makes his return to Purified Records with a graceful new remix of label mainstay Paradoks’ 2025 single, ‘Remember’.
Where Paradoks’ original captures the energy of the peak-time dancefloor, Mees Salomé’s interpretation takes a more introspective route. Stripping the track back to its emotional foundations, he introduces delicate textures, luminous atmospheres and subtle melodic details, transforming ‘Remember’ into a blissful sonic journey that evokes the first light of sunrise.
Marking the meeting of two distinctive melodic voices, with Salomé preserving the emotional core of the original while guiding it into new territory. Spacious, refined and deeply atmospheric, the remix embodies the qualities at the heart of Purified Records: emotional, timeless and immersive.
Mees Salomé has established himself as one of the Netherlands’ fastest-rising melodic house artists. Classically trained in piano, guitar and drums, his musical background informs a sound that balances intricate musicianship with emotive electronic production. His acclaimed Distant series has evolved from a podcast into a fully realised live concept, culminating in sold-out open-to-close concert experiences and further cementing Salomé’s reputation as an artist capable of creating deeply immersive musical journeys.
Paradoks exists in the space between shadow and light, tension and release. Blending emotional storytelling with powerful, driving electronic music, the Swiss artist creates moments that pull listeners out of the mind and into presence. Rooted in melody and energy, his sound balances cinematic motifs with raw dancefloor connection, amassing over 30M+ STREAMS and close to 400k Shazams. Paradoks has performed at iconic venues such as Ultra Music Festival, Hï Ibiza, Space Miami, Brooklyn Mirage NY, Piknic MTL, La Fabrica CBA, Âme Laroc BR and more, while his music has been supported on stages including Tomorrowland Mainstage, Ultra, and Coachella.
The artwork for Remember features a striking photograph by Kelsey Williamson, capturing the unique underwater landscapes of the crystal-clear waters of Kayangan Lake in Coron, Philippines.
An adventurer and photographer with a passion for exploring some of the world’s most remote and extraordinary regions, Williamson’s work focuses on untamed landscapes and underwater environments, encouraging a deeper connection with the natural world and a sense of curiosity about the unknown.
Often described as a freshwater lake, Kayangan Lake is actually fed by a combination of rainwater and ocean seepage, creating a distinctive ecosystem and some of the clearest waters in Asia. Towering limestone cliffs descend beneath the surface, creating a dramatic meeting point between land and sea.
The artwork’s connection to the natural world also highlights the importance of protecting these fragile environments. The Philippine Reef and Rainforest Conservation Foundation works to safeguard this balance through coral reef restoration, reforestation and environmental education.
