Masked electronic music producer and DJ, Alan Walker, has had a fairly quiet year. His recent collaboration with Seungri, Julie Bergan, and K-391 on “Ignite” has already amassed an astounding 33 million streams on Spotify. Similar to “Ignite,” “Darkside” is a melodic and atmospheric piece that’s chock-full of power throughout.

The piece begins immediately with Au/Ra and Tomine Harket‘s powerful vocals. It moves into a rhythm and progression that rides a fine line with “Faded.” You’ll hear luscious synths, evocative melodies, and a colorful array of emotive lyrics. Like any Alan Walker tune, it’s sure to be stuck in your head for days on end. The infectious synth melodies, luscious synths, and memorable lyrics catch your eye from the second they start.

In some ways “Darkside” does have a similar sound to the producer’s hugely successful “Faded.” However, Alan Walker draws elements and inspiration from a myriad of sources in “Darkside.”
