CamelPhat & Nadia Ali – Endlessly (Original Mix)
A pair of Grammy nominated artists in CamelPhat and Nadia Ali have linked up on a melodic house tune titled “Endlessly”. Striking piano chords and mesmerizing melodies from the English duo are combined with haunting vocals of the Los Angeles based artist in their first track together. The song was released through When Stars Align, which was launched by CamelPhat in October 2022.

Nadia Ali shares that “Endlessly” is a song I originally wrote nearly 10 years ago. At the time I was feeling a great deal of anxiety and after a lot of introspection I felt that I just needed to surrender and really lean into my faith. I knew when I had finished writing it, it had something to it.
I held onto it for a long time and revisited it about a year ago when I was starting to play piano again.
This spring when CamelPhat and I got in the studio together here in LA, I sang them a few different songs I’ve written over the years as options for us to try recording together. They played me a couple of their unreleased instrumentals, and when I heard the particular beat that ended up being the song, I hummed the melody “Endlessly” over it.
The boys seemed to be instantly drawn to that particular song and we started fine tuning it. It was pretty magical when it all came together. The boys finished the demo of the song that same night after the session and two days later they had a show at Spotlight and played it out for the first time. I definitely had chills hearing it out in a great loud system like that and seeing the crowd reaction.
It’s been such a joy to collaborate with CamelPhat and their whole team. They are some of the hardest working guys in the scene and it’s so fun knowing that I used to listen to their song “Cola” on repeat. So proud of what we created together!
I hope this song resonates with you, as it is so special to me.”
The collaboration has been supported by Armin van Buuren, Oliver Heldens, Yotto, Ferreck Dawn, Timmy Trumpet, Cosmic Gate, Fatum, Futuristic Polar Bears, Leftwing : Kody, Bobina, Chicane, D-wayne, Danny Howard, DJ S.K.T, Hard Rock Sofa, Judge Jules, Korolova, Majestic, Matys, Pete Tong, Sam Divine, and Sultan + Shepard.
Last September, Liverpool natives Dave Whelan and Mike Di Scala released their second album called “Spiritual Milk”, which featured collaborations with the likes of Max Milner, Anyma, Mathame and Frýnn, Shimza and Julia Church, London Grammar, and more.
Born in Libya to Pakistani parents before later moving to New York, Nadia Ali’s recognizable vocals have been heard on “Rapture” as part of the duo iiO with Markus Moser (with Avicii’s remix to take note of), “Pressure” with Starkillers and Alex Kenji (of which Alesso’s remix was the 2011 summer anthem), and “Must Be The Love” with Arty and BT.
