Near Death Experience (NDX) are back with a bang—literally—with their electrifying new single, ‘Shake’. This London-based psychedelic rock’n’soul powerhouse has once again delivered a track that’s as soulful as it is invigorating. From the opening beat, Joshua Van Ness’s funky drumming lays down an irresistible groove, pulling listeners straight into motion.
What follows is a glorious blend of infectious energy and raw soul. Frontman Ian Whiteling delivers the hook—“Shake me!”—with an emotive punch that feels like both a cry for change and a celebration of resilience. Amar Grover’s deep, bubbling bass adds warmth and momentum, while Jack Dawkins’ dynamic saxophone bursts bring a splash of vintage flair.
At its heart, ‘Shake’ is more than a groove—it’s a love letter to perseverance. The anthemic bridge, with Whiteling’s soaring vocals declaring, “I want you, I need you, I’ve gotta believe you,” channels the urgency of pushing through life’s toughest moments. With a subtle nod to disco and a final chorus that leaves you buzzing, NDX have crafted an empowering anthem for anyone chasing a dream.
NDX don’t just want you to dance—they want you to rise. And with ‘Shake’, you’ll do both.
