sadie | Hyper-pop Remix of Orchin's Song "My Wish"

sadie, Brooklyn-based songwriter and producer, remixed Orchin’s 2019 song “My Wish,” transforming the wistful, slower track into a danceable, hyper-pop banger. Lyrics like “Oh, how depression can last / When you wallow in a puddle and are surprised by the splash” are contrasted with bright synthy beats, putting new meaning and life to the original song. The repeated yearning, “I wish I wanted it back” and “I wish I had it all back,” threads the song together and is the emotional basis, in spite of the bouncy underlay. The track is out today, October 4 on streaming platforms.

Jeremy McLennan of Orchin

“I discovered Orchin’s LP Serene in the early days of quarantine and immediately became obsessed with ‘My Wish.’ We started working on some songs together, and I asked him if he’d be OK if I remixed 'My Wish’ to play at my EP release show,” sadie said. “The original ‘My Wish’ was already a perfect song, and I’m so honored that Jeremy let me make it into a hyper-pop banger. We were joking that his version is the ‘LA version’ and mine is the ‘NYC version.’”

Earlier this year, sadie released her four-track debut EP, Nowhere, co-produced by Joe Valle of Wet and Maya Laner of True Blue and formerly Porches. sadie’s influences include Charli XCX, AG Cook, SOPHIE, Bjork, and Kate Bush. The Pigeons & Planes “Best New Artist” was met with acclaim from publications like the New York Times and Stereogum for her melancholic yet infectious tracks.
