Alesso crowdsources vocals for remix of new song
Not to be creatively restricted by social isolation, Alesso has turned to Twitter to crowdsource vocals for a remix of “Midnight”—the producer’s upcoming collaboration with One Direction’s Liam Payne.
In a video posted on the twitter of Universal Music Publishing Group, Alesso plays a vocal clip of the track—out April 8—and asks fans to record their own take of the vocals. While neither the lyrics nor a deadline for the contest is available, those who wish to participate should upload their recording with the hashtag #AlessoMidnight.
Information about royalties is also not made clear by UMPG. Based on the short snippet Alesso played in the video, there is a good possibility Alesso layers the vocals to create a stadium anthem out of the progressive track.
While he hasn’t taken part in any live sets as of late, the producer recently joined Marshmello and Jauz to play Call of Duty Warzone on the #Fight2Fund charity livestream.
