Double Wish - Aeroplane (ft. ARK IDENTITY)
Orange County-based duo Double Wish, comprised of Adam Sabolick and Philippe Andre, teamed up with ARK IDENTITY, the project of Noah Mroueh, and created the dreamy and simply beautiful "Aeroplane." While grounded in a contemporary production, the track exudes a 70s yacht rock vibe, giving it its special allure. I feel transported to a time when seemingly everything was blissful and okay. "Aeroplane" can be found on Double Wish's upcoming EP Deeper Ecstacy, scheduled for February 28, via Hit the North Records.
Asked about the collaboration, Adam Sabolick says:
"This year I dove deep into video game music, and I think you can hear that creeping in too. I’m not really immersed in gaming culture, but Philippe dabbles. I’d find these sound tracks (shout out Stardew Valley “Dance of the Moonlight Jellies”) and my mind would be blown and Philippe would already be onboard. There are definitely some Zelda vibes here too. We ended the track with this Mellotron lead that has this otherworldly, flute-like quality—it’s mystical, almost dreamlike, like you’re stumbling through a world that feels familiar but still out of reach."
Noah Mroueh explains further:
"The aeroplane symbolizes being in transit—not fully here or there, just suspended between what you’ve left behind and what’s ahead. It’s that strange, in-between space where a lot of emotions surface—whether that’s leaving a place, a person, or even just old habits. It’s about taking that leap, even if you don’t have all the answers yet. There’s this duality of holding on to the past while also wanting to escape it. ‘Aeroplane’ is about learning to sit with those feelings instead of running from them.”
