Alan Walker & Sasha Alex Sloan – Hero (Official Music Video)

Norwegian music producer Alan Walker.

The work he co-created with singer-songwriter Sasha Alex Sloan is this track, “Hero.” It’s an EDM song with a moody, wet atmosphere, where the explosive, high-energy chorus contrasts strikingly with the softer parts sung tenderly by Sasha Alex Sloan.

It’s perfect both for relaxing and for getting things done to an upbeat rhythm.

By the way, the lyrics depict a hero who comes to save you.
