Melodic house bliss with a touch of melancholy: “Love Is Gone (Skypearls Radio Remix)” by ZenToy

Brussels-based composer, producer, and DJ ZenToy has always been one to blur the boundaries, and “Love Is Gone (Skypearls Radio Remix)” is no exception. Best known for his eclectic fusion of electro-pop, house, and EDM, ZenToy has spent the better part of a decade crafting tracks that explore love, identity, and personal transformation. With this remix, he kicks off an ambitious three-part release that will roll out across the summer, each version showcasing a diverse emotional and sonic interpretation of the same theme.

The Skypearls Radio Remix, released June 25, 2025, takes the lead as the most accessible version, perfectly built for summer playlists, streaming, and radio play. It’s a lighter, melodic house interpretation – uplifting but not without a bittersweet undercurrent.

Where some melodic house tracks lean heavily into hypnotic repetition, Skypearls keeps this version clean, bright, and fueled by passion, making it an easy listen without sacrificing depth. Bubbling basslines and shimmering synths carry the rhythm, while carefully layered pads add a feeling of nostalgia. There’s an unmistakable dance-floor energy, but the production leaves enough space for the song’s emotional theme to breathe.

If the club version is designed to “develop the emotions further,” as ZenToy teases, this radio mix distills that into a polished, radio-friendly bite: warm, catchy, and effortlessly smooth.

The repeating vocal hook hints at the song’s central message. It’s a deceptively simple question that hangs over the mix like a soft shadow. The melody and chord progressions work in tandem to reflect this emotional duality – a pulsing rhythm that pushes you to dance, even as the melancholy lingers just beneath the surface. It’s that tension between sadness and movement that makes this track resonate on more than just a physical level.

This remix isn’t just a standalone single; it’s the first step in a three-part journey. By releasing it alongside future versions – The Virgin Dolls’ Hardstyle take on August 25, and the original track with full lyrics in September – ZenToy invites listeners to experience the song’s story from multiple angles. It’s a bold move that reflects his artistic curiosity and willingness to experiment with form.

And for a track about love lost, the remix is surprisingly celebratory, making it perfect for melodic house, electro house, and summer dance party enthusiasts.

With “Love Is Gone (Skypearls Radio Remix),” ZenToy sets the stage for an intriguing trilogy that explores how the same emotional narrative can morph across genres. Skypearls’ take is smooth, melodic, and tailor-made for easy listening, but it still carries the weight of the question at its heart: what have we done to let love slip away?

If this radio mix is just a taste of what’s to come, the full-length club version and original track promises to push the emotional and sonic boundaries even further. For now, this remix stands as a perfect soundtrack to both dance and quietly reflect under summer skies.
