Irish-born, Berlin-based DJ, producer and sound engineer Sara Miller returns to Permanent Vacation with ‘Oceanic Dream’, a three-track EP shaped by her signature blend of emotional resonance and dance floor euphoria. The release follows her acclaimed Lunar Theory EP (2023), her vinyl debut Cervo on Cracki Records (2024), and remixes on Permanent Vacation and Live at Robert Johnson (2024).
Miller’s trajectory has been defined not only by her studio output but also by her presence on Europe’s most iconic dance floors, from Panorama Bar and Robert Johnson to Tresor, London’s Phonox, and Barcelona’s Nitsa. In 2024, she was selected for the Detroit-Berlin Residency, spending two months at Submerge, headquarters of Underground Resistance. There she collaborated with Detroit artist Shawescape Renegade on a hardware live show and was immersed in the city’s culture of resilience, community spirit and innovation. The residency left an enduring impression, enriching her creative voice and reinforcing her dedication to sustainable, community-driven artistry.
“Oceanic Dream” channels this duality: introspective yet euphoric, grounded yet transcendent. Opener “Odyssey” carries the spirit of 90s progressive house into a dreamlike state with its gliding synths, shuffling groove and euphoric vocal samples tracing a hypnotic arc between movement and reflection. “Don’t Stop” takes the energy higher, with a bubbling acid line and soaring synths that push the track toward its zenith, a moment built for the peak of the night. Closing cut “World In You” shifts into a groovier register, where chunky bass, swinging percussion and deep chords combine with sparkling melodies; a nod to the legacy of classic deep house, mellow yet uplifting, its vocal sample proudly declaring “house music” as both homage and affirmation.
With Oceanic Dream, Sara Miller offers her most distilled vision yet: music suspended between dream and drive, equally resonant in reflection and on the dancefloor. It is a release that reflects Miller’s evolution, marking her clearest statement yet in her journey with Permanent Vacation.
