Turkish producer Ali Bakgor teams up with DLAY for their collaboration “Lightning Bolt” on NFT-fueled label Purple Fly, making for the next buzz-worthy addition to the imprint’s dynamic and diverse roster of releases this year. Opening with a driving, deep bassline, “Lightning Bolt” incorporates soulful and slightly melancholy vocals with euphonious melodies to make for a groovy and emotive sonic experience. The track feels right at home with radio play or perhaps for late-night dancing sessions. Ali Bakgor rides the wave of new artists joining Purple Fly label, which has previous releases from DJ SODA, Ahin of MOMOLAND, Laidback Luke, BLVD., Fatman Scoop, Shaquille O’Neal, Sevenn, and more. On the flip side, DLAY returns to the Hong Kong-based record label after releasing “The Hills” with Sevenn back in June.
“‘Lightning Bolt’ is a song that is driven by its melancholic atmosphere together with a deep melodic beat. The harmonies from the vocals blended very well with the idea we had in mind, which made our job much easier as producers. From the first second of the song, we could instantly picture the connection It would have with the listeners as the song progresses from dark and emotional chords to a hypnotic drop.” – Ali Bakgor & DLAY
