NEW EIGHT9FLY FT DJ LARA FRASER SINGLE - ‘GHOST TOWN’

Grammy award winning artist Eight9FLY has joined forces with internationally acclaimed DJ Lara Fraser for their infectious new Dance track Ghost Town. The melancholy heart break song is fused with a sexy RnB topline that will have you caught between phoning your ex and hitting the dancefloor.

Produced by Finn Wigan (mixed and mastered by Cole Yours Truly & Quan), Ghost Town is driven by lush synths and extended reverbs that create a deep atmospheric feel, setting the soundscape for this multi-layered song. Ghost Town comes with a expressive visualiser full of emotive movement and a cinematic style that embodies the complex interaction of loneliness and empowerment that can come from heartbreak. The loss is a paradoxical void; the emptiness is equally full of opportunities. 

The track comes off the back of a great year for Eight9 who recently co-wrote the song ‘Break me Down’ on Wiz Kids latest album Morayoon, as well as working on Ayra Starrs‘The Year I Turned 21´ album, Danny Oceans grammy nominated Reflexa album as well as releasing two singles of his own ‘Cape Town’ and ´Ransom´. Whilst Lara has been DJing at some of the biggest events around the world, including Vegas Grand Prix, Championship League final at Wembley Arena, The Fashion Awards and Fashion Weeks around the world.

Eight9FLY has had an illustrious career, picking up a Grammy win for his contribution on Kaytranada's Bubba album, where he wrote and featured on Vex Oh with Ari Pensmith and Goldlink. He also worked on Wizkid's Grammy nominated album'Made In Lagos' where Eight9 penned 3 songs including 'Smile' Featuring H.E.R., Reckless & Sweet One.

Speaking about the inspiration behind ‘Ghost Town’ Eight9 says: “I approached Ghost Town from an emotionally vulnerable place, but I still wanted to leave a feeling of empowerment. The first time I heard the beat coming together, it took me in a completely different direction to my usual sound. The collaboration process has me inspired. Ghost Town is an anthem that both males and females can sing along to.”
