LONDON: Alan Walker, the multi-platinum Norwegian music producer and DJ, is back with a new single entitled “Endless Summer,” a collaboration with British singer-songwriter Zak Abel. Due for release on July 14 on the MER Recordings label, the song is described as a euphoric dance-pop tune that perfectly captures the carefree and blissful essence of the season it evokes, according to a press release. “It opens with organic melodies that move into a euphonious chorus consisting of a groovy bassline and understated percussion, complemented by the positive and hopeful message in the chorus,” it added. “Endless Summer” follows the release earlier in the year of 25-year-old Walker’s singles “Dreamer” and “Hero,” the latter featuring Sasha Alex Sloan. Englishman Abel, meanwhile, is one of the most high-profile electronic dance music vocalists, whose hits include “Freedom,” with producer and DJ Kygo, which has been streamed more than 200 million times; “Ten More Days,” with Avicii; “Bad,” with Don Diablo; and “The Power” with Duke Dumont. His new album, “Love Over Fear,” is due for release on Aug. 25 on the UK-based BMG label. “Endless Summer” has reportedly already received more than 1.5 million organic impressions on social media platforms even before its official release, “which makes it sure to be on rotation for all the memorable moments with friends and family this summer,” according to the press release. “Like most people, I’m always looking forward to summertime,” said Walker. “It’s the most exciting and blissful season and it’s the best launchpad for joyful moments with family and friends while I’m on the road. “It was these bright moments that inspired me to create a song that captured the buzzing mood into an everlasting summer soundtrack, and Zak Abel’s talent brought it to life in a way only he could do.” Abel said: “This might be the most euphoric song I’ve ever been a part of. Working with Alan on ‘Endless Summer’ was a great experience, too, so it just makes me wanna jump around and smile, and I’m sure people will react just like me when listening to our track.” Walker, from the Norwegian city of Bergen, has more than 115 million followers across his social accounts, 8.7 billion YouTube views, and more than 50 billion audio and video streams.
