Mako reveals final single ‘Ocelot’ prior to the release of his second album Fable

Mako returns with another intriguing offering ‘Ocelot’, an indie-dance track with pop sensibilities that continues to paint a vivid picture of what is to come on the esteemed musician’s forthcoming sophomore album, Fable, slated for release in early December.

The high-octane record opens with a stunningly memorable acoustic guitar riff propelled by a catchy soundscape of handclaps and percussion over which Seaver’s emotively saccharine vocal effortlessly glides, as the track builds with a driving four-on-the-floor rhythm into an electro pop anthem.

‘Ocelot’ serves as a true testament to Mako’s totally unique artistic vision, as well as his ever evolving sound as a producer. Following a string of 6 singles, Seaver once again proves that he has evolved to a point that his work is no longer restrained by being a part of any musical genre.

Says Seaver, I started the idea for Fable on a pretty unusual and meaningful trip to Norway, literally stowed away on an empty farm for a little while.  Everything was intense and thoughtful at the time.  My close friends made a surprise trip to meet me in Stockholm after I was done – not much to say here except for a legendary few days of partying.  This song was written about that break in the trip, with us running around town doing god knows what.  I love it for Fable because I personally feel like it’s such an infectious side-note in an otherwise pretty somber and deliberate collection of songs, which is just what that week in Sweden meant to me.”

Alex Seaver is a Los Angeles-based creative force who has been consistently challenging genre-constraints as he leads the Mako project in a new direction. With his finger perpetually on the pulse, his vast musical talent as a producer, songwriter, and musician is evident in his ever-expanding catalog. Since emerging onto the scene in 2011, he has collaborated with the likes of Illenium, Kill The Noise, R3HAB, Sander van Doorn, and Steve Angello. Additionally, he’s worked on music for Riot Games’ hit multiplayer online battle arena video game League of Legends, as well as their upcoming TV series ‘Arcane’.
