The “WalkerVerse” is teeming with life. Alan Walker journeyed to all corners of the globe, unlocking portals to his futuristic playground. Walker plugged in coordinates for Vancouver, B.C. and beamed his way to the Harbour Event and Convention Centre for an extended visit. A quick sell-out for his November 25th tour date necessitated an additional show on the 24th, which also sold out. The anticipation was palpable in the lead-up to Walker’s set. Chatter filled the dead air between sets. A packed house scanned left and right for signs of the headliner. A hush fell over the crowd as crackling and whirling teased an imminent departure to the “WalkerVerse.” Pockets of cheering broke out as the audience was confronted by a large, red cybernetic eye interacting wit...

Welcome to the Walkerverse. Alan Walker has officially released the first installment of his forthcoming album, complete with three previously unreleased tracks. Released June 17th via Sony Music, Walkerverse Pt. 1 is a microcosm of Walker at his finest, blending melodic bass and future house with orchestral melodies and bright, euphoric synths. “Adventure Time” (with Philter) kicks it off with grandeur, welcoming listeners into Walker’s universe with a cinematic build and epic progressive house drop. Then there’s “Somebody Like U” (with frequent collaborator Au/Ra), a bright and airy fist-pumper that bridges the elegance of a ballad with the energy of slap house. In the song’s official music video, its ethos pairs perfectly with fo...

With just six months to go until festivities begin, the organizers of Mysteryland have announced one of the festival’s biggest lineups to date. Mysteryland 2022 boasts one of the most robust and ambitious lineups of the year. The fest will feature over 300 artists, who will perform on a staggering 22 stages across three days.

The topic of artists striving to regain ownership of their music—after signing it to a label—has been pushed to the forefront in recent years. With the barrier to entry to promote one’s music at an all-time low, artists are more comfortable than ever with the previously daunting prospect of going independent and taking this responsibility into their own hands. Alan Walker is the 115th most-streamed artist in the world on Spotify at the time of writing. However, six years ago when he signed a trio of songs to NoCopyrightSounds (NCS) this was hardly the case. NCS is currently one of the largest digital music labels on YouTube with over 31 million subscribers. The platform has been instrumental in breaking the careers of unheralded artists over the years, including Walker. With suc...
