The Alternate High Remix of Paradise Feat. Mandy Edge’s Touched By An Angel locks in at 140 BPM from the first kick, with the low-end kept tight and the midrange wide open for the synth work. The production leaves plenty of room for Mandy Edge’s vocal to cut through when it arrives, and the result is a clean, driving take on the original.
There’s a euphoric lift in the chord progression that feels built for hands-in-the-air moments, but the track never tips into excess. Edge’s high notes float above the arrangement with an effortless clarity that carries the emotional weight, making the atmosphere feel both anthemic and intimate.
The breakdown is where the track earns its crossover appeal, balancing commercial hooks with the kind of authentic trance energy that defined Paradise’s earlier work. It’s a moment that connects the dancefloor to something more personal, pulling back just enough to let the vocal soar before the kick returns.
Few independent trance releases arrive with remix support from names like Alternate High and Kenny Hayes, and the full package—including radio edits and the extended mix—makes a strong case for the original. Touched By An Angel feels like a release that knows exactly what it wants to be.
