‘Heart Attack’ is the latest single from breakout DJ/producer Sam Silver, featuring dynamic vocal performances from GROOVY and Cade Clair. The track is a unique melding of UK garage rhythms, emotional dance, and R&B-infused vocals, capturing raw angst and driving it forward with club energy.
Right from the opening beat, ‘Heart Attack’ immerses you in the action. The pulsating bass quickly establishes the mood, followed by GROOVY’s silky smooth vocals, which effectively captivate the audience. As his verse unfolds, an anxious, urgent low-end builds beneath, creating tension until the song transitions into a stuttering sample fueled by a UK garage breakbeat. Cade Clair and Groovy both showcase unique vocal styles that harmoniously complement each other, providing a smooth, melodic contrast to the UK garage-infused track.
“Heart Attack started as a late-night idea in LA and turned into a year-long obsession,” says Sam Silver. “Groovy brought the Jersey bounce, I ripped the synths, and Cade sealed the deal. The first version was cool—but we knew it could hit harder. When I sent the new drop, Groovy lost it: ‘Bro—we have to get Cade on this.’ And he crushed it. Easily one of my favorite records I’ve touched.”
The lyrics narrate a story enlivened by the accompanying music video. It begins with a woman using an old school iPod, and transitions to a fantastical world populated by unusual characters in a vivid club scene. Amidst strobe lights and a sweaty, dark atmosphere, the footage alternates between Sam Silver at the DJ booth, Groovy and Cade Clair among a lively crowd, girls dancing in the crowded club, and surreal snapshots reflecting the track’s emotional turmoil. The video showcases various chaotic elements; from a man performing shirtless curls on the dancefloor to a snorkeler in flippers, a horse-headed raver, and a mime-like dancer. It culminates dramatically with a girl collapsing in the crowd, as chaos ensues and the music fades, symbolizing the physical and emotional “heart attack” the song conveys.
Speaking on the meaning behind the single, Groovy explains: “Heart Attack captures its name in every way. The feeling of panic and chaos when let down emotionally triggers physical symptoms. Impending doom, a pit in your stomach, a situation that just doesn’t get better no matter how positive you remain. That’s a heart attack, that’s the song.”
