Snavs and John Alto Release “Headlights” – Multi-genre Metaphor of Relationship. Out now on Dim Mak Records

Danish export Snavs teamed up with up-and-comer John Alto, also hailing from Denmark, for their new track “Headlights,” a dark progressive house gem with a strong vocal element. The new single immediately captivates with suspenseful, emotive female vocals cocooned in its cinematic melodies, from which a euphonious and driving bassline blossoms and undulates. The combination of dynamic and deep sonic production makes “Headlights” suitable for singalongs during cathartic moments or getting down on the dancefloor. Its versatility is a representation of both Snavs‘s and Alto‘s dynamic styles, which have ranged from alt-rock to heavy bass and everything in between. “Headlights” is out now on Steve Aoki‘s Dim Mak Records.

“The track was inspired by the blending of two different music styles, with the heavier bass line and club rhythm, with the euphoric atmosphere with grand and epic melodies, perfect for anthems and large stages. The vocals play a massive part in the completion of the track, with some ear-catching lyrics that are great to sing along to. The song is about a relationship, metaphorically explained through driving at night.” – Snavs & John Alto
