Dreamscapes Reimagined — Ben C & Kalsx Invite You Into “Once Upon a Time”
With Once Upon a Time, Ben C & Kalsx open a new chapter in their artistic journey , one that blurs the lines between reality and imagination.
Electronic duo Ben C & Kalsx return with ‘Once Upon a Time’, a deeply emotive track that fuses the lush textures of deep progressive house with the driving pulse of melodic techno.
“This track was born from melancholic chords,” the duo explains. “We wanted to create something that evokes childhood wonder—that feeling that beauty and creativity can rise from the ordinary.”
Completed in just two days, ‘Once Upon a Time’ captures both spontaneity and precision. Its hypnotic lead melody lingers in the mind, complemented by soft pluck chords blending marimba and piano timbres. The result is a dreamy, immersive atmosphere that feels both introspective and hopeful.
The duo’s main challenge was maintaining dynamic movement while preserving the track’s ethereal quality. “It’s always about balance,” they say. “We wanted something that moves you, but also lets you drift away.”
Slightly chiller than their usual output, the release highlights Ben C & Kalsx’s signature melodic storytelling and emotional depth. As winter sets in, ‘Once Upon a Time’ arrives as a warm, luminous antidote—a reminder that even in the dark, imagination still shines.
