Spotlight: Alesso Returns with “Fight For Love”<\/h3>\n

\nSwedish progressive house icon Alesso has teamed up with vocalist Kaitlin Aragon for his latest single, Fight For Love<\/em>. The track serves as a masterclass in melodic dance production, blending soaring synths with Aragon\u2019s emotive vocal performance. <\/p>\n

Fans may recognize the melody; Alesso teased the track during his high-octane set at Ultra Japan this past September, where it quickly became a fan favorite. This release continues a busy year for the producer, following his recent collaboration with OneRepublic, In Your Eyes<\/em>, and his two-track The One<\/em> EP, which dropped via Body Hi and Tomorrowland Music this past August. <\/p>\n

Kaitlin Aragon is also building significant momentum. Having recently lent her voice to projects with industry heavyweights like Kaskade and GLOCKENBACH on the track Runaway<\/em>, her partnership with Alesso marks another milestone in her rising career. Fight For Love<\/em> is poised to be a staple in festival sets throughout the remainder of the year, proving that the melodic house sound remains as influential as ever in the current electronic climate.<\/p>\n
