Alok Releases His Next Future-Tech Single – “Always Feel Like,” Dance Floor Filler Based on Rockwell’s “Somebody’s Watching Me,”
If you aren’t following Alok already, where have you been? On our latest visit over to CONTROVERSIA we are checking out “Always Feels Like”, the latest from Alok. Currently experiencing his global breakout moment, Alok is currently one of the most successful and trendsetting producers currently in the business. With a lengthy catalog of remixes and originals for everyone from The Rolling Stones and Zara Larsson to Jason Derulo and Tove-Lo, Alok has quickly made a worldwide community of dedicated listeners that completely line up with Alok’s mantra. To put a few things in perspective, Alok has over 20 million monthly streams on Spotify, as well as being the 2nd most followed electronic producer on Instagram. The accolades never stop, as in 2021 Alok was even named the 4th most popular DJ in the world according to the DJMAG Top 100. Yeah, when Alok is a part of the production, you have to stop and listen.
While the trend of these older songs getting a new coat of paint is starting to slow down just a smidge, we’re also excited to see Alok throw his hat into the ring. While “Always Feels Like” is the latest addition to the Alok catalog, it heavily samples Rockwell’s iconic 1984 single “Somebody’s Watching Me”, including the vocal stylings of Michael Jackson. Even though the vocal sample may be from the 80s, Alok’s rendition transforms it into a modern club banger with just the right amount of nostalgia. Blending his dynamic style with future bass basslines that drive the track forward, “Always Feels Like” fits right into the Alok collection There are multiple reasons why Alok is in the cream of the crop of modern producers and not being afraid to take risks is key.
