Roger Shah, Omar Sherif & Philippe El Sisi’s “Enchanted Dreams” is a melodic, uplifting Trance anthem that balances Balearic atmosphere with full-scale FSOE power. Released on July 3, 2026, the collaboration brings together three artists with distinct identities and turns them into one focused, emotional 138 BPM statement for the main room.
Some collaborations work because the artists involved share a sound. Others work because their individual strengths create a new balance. “Enchanted Dreams” belongs firmly in the latter category.
Roger Shah brings the wide-screen emotion, sunlit melodic sensibility and atmospheric touch that have long defined his Magic Island universe. Omar Sherif and Philippe El Sisi, meanwhile, represent the driving, high-energy side of the Egyptian Trance sound and have become closely associated with the uplifting output of Future Sound of Egypt.
The result is a track that does not simply place Roger Shah’s Balearic identity next to a tougher FSOE framework. Instead, it finds a convincing middle ground: warm and melodic at its core, but powerful enough to hold its own in a peak-time Trance set.
A melodic journey with festival-scale momentum
“Enchanted Dreams” opens with a purposeful rhythmic foundation, immediately establishing a faster, main-floor direction. The percussion keeps the track moving with a directness that reflects Omar Sherif and Philippe El Sisi’s uplifting DNA, while the melodic elements gradually introduce a more expansive and emotional atmosphere.
Rather than rushing toward the central hook, the production gives its key components room to develop. The tension rises through layered synth work, sparkling details and a sense of anticipation that continues to grow into the breakdown.
That breakdown is the emotional centre of the record. It is broad, cinematic and deliberately unhurried, allowing the main melody to take focus before the energy returns. The payoff does not rely on aggression or excessive hardness. Its strength comes from the contrast between the track’s driving pulse and its open, almost dreamlike melodic character.
Balearic warmth meets FSOE uplift
What makes “Enchanted Dreams” stand out is the way it avoids becoming a predictable 138 BPM collaboration. There is plenty of uplift in the arrangement, but the production carries a warmer personality than many contemporary festival-focused Trance records.
Roger Shah’s influence can be felt in the track’s sense of space and emotional colour. The melody is not merely functional; it has a flowing, evocative quality that gives the record a feeling of movement and release. At the same time, Omar Sherif and Philippe El Sisi ensure that the track never loses its club focus.
This combination gives “Enchanted Dreams” a versatile role. It can work as a moment of emotional elevation in an uplifting set, but it also has enough forward momentum for large-scale festival crowds and late-night main-room moments.
Three artists, one clear identity
Roger Shah remains one of Trance music’s most recognisable melodic voices, with his Magic Island and Sunlounger projects helping to establish a distinctly Balearic interpretation of the genre. His ability to combine atmosphere, melody and club functionality remains central to his appeal.
“Enchanted Dreams” also features on Roger Shah’s Magic Island – Music For Balearic People Vol. 13, where its uplifting energy forms part of the compilation’s more peak-time second disc.“Enchanted Dreams” also features on Roger Shah’s Magic Island – Music For Balearic People Vol. 13, where its uplifting energy forms part of the compilation’s more peak-time second disc.
Omar Sherif and Philippe El Sisi are two of Egypt’s most respected names in uplifting Trance. Both have played important roles in the wider FSOE story, bringing a sound that is characterized by energetic pacing, emotional breakdowns, and melodies designed for big communal moments on the dancefloor.
“Enchanted Dreams” is a strong example of how naturally these three musical worlds can connect. It feels like a genuine collaboration rather than a collection of familiar stylistic signatures.
TranceAttack verdict
“Enchanted Dreams” is a properly crafted uplifting Trance record with patience, scale and emotional intent. Roger Shah, Omar Sherif and Philippe El Sisi do not chase novelty here; instead, they focus on the qualities that still make this side of Trance so effective: a memorable melody, a carefully built breakdown and a drop that rewards the journey.
The track’s biggest strength is its balance. It is forceful without becoming overly hard, melodic without drifting into softness, and cinematic without losing its function as a club record. For listeners who still want their 138 BPM Trance to feel uplifting, expansive, and genuinely emotional, this is an early July highlight.
