Kicking off the upcoming season with one of the most nostalgic tunes in dance music history, US duo Breathe Carolina teams up with UK singer Abi Flynn to revamp the ever invigorating song “Finally” Originally recorded by CeCe Peniston in the early 90’s, and consequently turning into an internationally acclaimed anthem for the burgeoning dance scene, this new version brings in a captivating 2024 energy, featuring warm piano riffs, feverish beats and Abi Flynn’s strong, soulful vocals. If ever, the jubilant vibe of those early days gains a worthy update with this extraordinary BC production – out now on Spinnin’ Records

They’ve been known to drop a classic or two; for the last decade LA-based duo Breathe Carolina has become one of dance music’s most inventive tastemakers. Blurring the lines between straight forward pop music and overwhelming festival tunes, they’ve dropped several hit songs, including “Blackout,” “Rhythm Is A Dancer,” “Sweet Dreams” and “Too Good,” the latter featured on their widely acclaimed 2019 fifth album DEADTHEALBUM.

More recently, the guys continued to break boundaries with 2021’s Raven & Kreyn collab “Vibes,” and 2022’s “Something”, a highly successful teamup with Martin Garrix. Last year, they continued this streak with releases on Garrix’ STMPD imprint, KSHMR label Dharma, as well as a series of resounding remixes of their all-time favorite “Sweet Dreams.”

Now, as 2024 unfolds, the guys venture into new exciting grounds, teaming up with none other than UK based soul/RnB vocalist Abi Flynn. She’s already made ripples in the UK soul/jazz scene for many years, supporting the likes of George Clinton/Funkadelic, Roy Ayers, Soul II Soul and more. 

Her most recent success, however, has been found in the house and dance music world, where she delivered magic to countless hit records. As the mystery voice behind Navos’ platinum selling global hit “Believe Me,” and chart topping D.O.D. single “So Much In Love,” Abi’s smooth, melodic vocals and irresistibly catchy toplines have taken the dance world by storm.

“We are so excited to get out our new track “FINALLY” with the amazing Abi Flynn! It took us a really long time to find someone who could capture the attitude and tone needed for this vocal and once we heard Abi do it we knew we found the right fit!” – Breathe Carolina

“Finally” definitely lives up to the iconic reputation of its original. Breaking out with the song’s famous upbeat melody, this revamp beautifully adopts CeCe Peniston’s captivating vocal style with Abi Flynn’s warm soulful approach. Effectively, she creates a whole new vibe on the wings of those early 90s sentiments, taken to perfection by Breathe Carolina’s dynamic production.

The guys basically add several layers of rhythmic bliss, enhancing the original’s wobbly bass line while creating a strong crescendo with rumbling drums and smooth synth pads. As the song drops into its indestructible chorus, a series of powerful piano chords, energetic percussion and flashy sound effects take the mood sky high, sure to ignite any contemporary club and festival crowd.

“This song has always had a special place in my heart. I used to sing this one for  college concerts at 17 years old and it was an absolute favourite in my teen years. To join forces with Breathe Carolina to make this punchy modern house version for the legendary Spinnin’ Records is a dream come true!” – Abi Flynn

Sure enough, BC’s seasoned production style is able to create a whole new monster here, excellently blending a nostalgic house atmosphere with warm doses of soul and 21st century festival exhilaration. Once again, “Finally” is the tune to dazzle the world’s dance floors.
