Marie Dahlstrøm, Dan Diggas & Aligo Release New EP “4inARow”: Streaming
- Danish singer-songwriter Marie Dahlstrøm, London-based producer Dan Diggas and Canadian rapper Aligo teamed up to release their new collaboration song “Rising” on January 12, 2021.
The song follows up “Fall Down”, which was released last December.
Aligo said of the song, “"Rising" to me feels like the song you hear at the end of a good movie. It tells the second chapter of a love story after the initial spark: Honeymoons and bright flames. An ode to people in love, the lyrics definitely put you in that feel good space and remind the people that might not be in love at the moment, that there is something for everyone out there. It's about when the moment comes and the temperature rises.”
Marie Dahlstrøm added, “Dan's beat reminded me a bit of butterflies in the stomach when I'm love, and that's what went on to inspire my lyrics for the track.” - Following the song, the trio released their debut EP “4inARow” on January 15th.
The EP comprises of 4-track including “Fall Down” and “Rising”.
Each track was recorded between 8pm and midnight on those 4 days in January 2020.
Aligo said of the recording process, “Marie and I lived in the JFH flat for a little over a year and after a few months we figured out a way for us to really tap in and make music together. We told ourselves every night for 4 straight days we are going to tackle a pack of beats that Dan made while he was on tour with Mahalia. Theme-wise there wasn't a plan at first but we knew we wanted to explore different emotions and feelings with each night that passed. By the end we noticed the songs came together in a cohesive way that demonstrated a four stage cycle of love/relationships.”
