Rooted in years of mutual respect, their partnership brings natural alignment. Alesso describes:
I’ve known Rob and Pendulum for many years, and they’ve held such a special sound. Rob’s voice is so unique that it can really bring a track to life. Working on 'FADE' with them was amazing and I couldn’t be more excited to kick off the new year with this release!
