Why Everyone Is Obsessed With “Out Of My Mind” by Omar+ and Ben Sterling

If you’ve spent any time on a dance floor in the last month, you’ve probably heard that vocal. You know the one—smooth, slightly hypnotic, and stuck in your head for three days straight.

Omar+ has officially teamed up with Ben Sterling, and their new single “Out Of My Mind” is doing exactly what the title suggests. It’s a massive moment for the UK scene, bridging the gap between underground tech-house grit and that soulful R&B energy Omar+ is becoming famous for.

The Vibe: Not Your Average Club Track

Let’s be real: a lot of tech-house can start to sound the same after an hour. But “Out Of My Mind” breaks the mold.

Instead of just layering a generic vocal over a generic beat, Ben Sterling brings in these elastic, rubbery basslines and “filmic” crackles that make the track feel alive. On top of that, Omar+ delivers a performance that feels intimate but powerful. It’s got that “heady maze” feeling—dark, atmospheric, and impossible not to move to.

Why it works:

• The Contrast: You’ve got Ben’s raw, 4×4 underground production clashing with Omar’s polished, soulful hooks.

• The Textures: Listen closely and you’ll hear acid-synth flashes and gritty background noise that give it a “warehouse” feel.

• The Catchiness: It’s a rare “grower” that also works as an instant floor-filler.

Omar+ Is Having a Massive Year

If you aren’t following Omar+ yet, now is the time to start. He’s not just a singer; he’s a total aesthetic. Drawing from his Punjabi and Gujarati roots and a love for surrealist visuals, he’s bringing a much-needed splash of color to the electronic world.

Being named in the Beatport Next Class of 2026 wasn’t a fluke. From his sold-out UK headline tour to upcoming sets at EDC Las Vegas and Red Rocks (supporting Cloonee), he’s proving that he can hold his own on the world’s biggest stages.

Where to Catch Him Next

This track was basically built for the festival circuit. If you want to hear “Out Of My Mind” the way it was intended—on a massive sound system—here is where you can find him this spring:

• Miami Music Week: Catch the vibes in the Florida sun this March.

• Red Rocks (Colorado): He’s joining Cloonee and KETTAMA for what’s likely to be the show of the season.

• The UK Tour: He’s currently hitting cities across the UK, though tickets are getting pretty scarce.

The Bottom Line

“Out Of My Mind” is the sound of two artists at the top of their game. It’s moody, it’s infectious, and it’s definitely going to be the soundtrack to your 2026.
