Toronto, ON – October 7, 2022 –Brazil’s biggest artist and internationally acclaimed DJ Alok, known for colossal collaborations with John Legend, Jason Derulo, Tove Lo, and most recently Ella Eyre for the #1 sound of the Summer, Deep Down, has joined forces with multi platinum singer/songwriter, Ellie Goulding, and British DJ/Producer, Sigala, to release their irresistible new track, All by Myself. The dance pop anthem brings the timeless sample of Depeche Mode’s Enjoy The Silence, who were notably impressed with the final result of the song and gave it the honour of its first clearance to be released; available on all digital streaming platforms here.

The sample is used in the drop of All by Myself, which concentrates all the elements, including Goulding’s glossy vocals and Alok and Sigala’s flawless production, into a smash hit for the Fall season. The holy grail of samples, Alok wanted to use it with the respect the song deserves, and all artists are very pleased with the outcome, turning this release into a top priority for all; with big label support from B1 Recordings/Sony Music UK/RCA Records.
