'Holy Forever' by Yunior: Worship Meets EDM


Yunior's 'Holy Forever' is a fresh take on a well known song by Chris Tomlin that has already been covered by so many other artists. What makes this rendition special is that this Canada-based producer took the song and wrapped it in his CEDM / future bass flair. An energetic rendition filled with familiar elements, and Yunior's synths and dynamic drums make this unique. What drives Yunior is his passion to bring more people to Jesus through the power of Christian EDM.

Yunior - Holy ForeverThe song opens with familiar lyrics that remind us of eternity: 'A thousand generations falling down in worship / To sing the song of ages to the Lamb.' Calling us to join in with believers past and present, standing shoulder to shoulder, lifting His Name above all other names.

The pre-chorus builds this sense of awe and the CEDM flair continues to unfold: 'Your name is the highest / Your name is the greatest / Your name stands above them all.' With powerful beats that feel like they're emphasizing the importance of the message, you'll feel a connection to the Almighty and acknowledge His sovereignty over everything in life. It's a humbling, uplifting, and energetic experience all at once.

Yunior's version stays true to the original, with beats that will get you to move. It's a unique blend of reflective worship and energetic praise. 

If you appreciate the CEDM genre, then why not give 'Holy Forever' a listen? May the lrycis and the beats draw you closer to the One who is 'Holy forever.' Enjoy!

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
