Ben C & Kalsx Deliver a Powerful Anthem of Resilience with 'Alive'
Ben C & Kalsx kick off the year with "Alive," a track that pulses with determination and energy!
Rooted in progressive house, the song weaves dark club vibes with uplifting melodies to explore the theme of self-overcoming. “The track is about tapping into that inner strength when you're at your breaking point,” the duo explains.
Built around a poignant vocal hook — "Coming into the light, and out of the darkness" — "Alive" features a striking contrast between its shadowy undertones and its triumphant melodic crescendos. The use of a "reese" bassline, short low-end grooves, and trance-inspired leads delivers a rich and textured sonic experience. “We wanted the production to reflect the duality of struggle and courage,” says the duo.
The second verse introduces a bold lead that recalls trance motifs, a decision Ben C & Kalsx describe as “audacious but fitting.” Despite its accessibility, the track retains its underground identity. “Striking the balance between melody and grit is crucial for us,” they add.
"Alive" is more than a dancefloor anthem; it’s a call to embrace resilience and step into the light. With its electrifying energy, Ben C & Kalsx deliver a compelling start to 2025.
