The track marks the first official salvo from Somna’s ambitious upcoming album Pathways, a multi-genre album that combines elements of trance & progressive, hard dance and melodic bass.
In the words of Somna “”I’m Alive” is a very special one for me, it marks my eighth collaboration with Andy Moor, and our first alongside the incredibly talented Brieanna Grace. This track has been over a year and a half in the making, and it’s packed with the little sonic details, emotional layers, and production touches that Andy and I love to create together. As the first single from my upcoming third album, it’s a powerful statement of where I am creatively right now and I couldn’t be more excited to finally share it.”
