"With my new alias CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ I am exploring a more bass music-focused side of myself as a producer. I have been in the studio nonstop these last few years, and this creative switch-up has given me so many new insights and ideas. I have been making bass music most of my life, but at the start of 2025, the timing feels perfect to launch this new project. Maniac by Michael Sembello has always been one of my favorite songs growing up as a kid. It's one of those timeless 80ies tracks that's just pure adrenaline and emotion - it's cinematic, intense, and unapologetically bold. The driving rhythm and iconic synth lines feel like they were destined to be reimagined in a drum & bass tune, where high-energy beats meet raw nostalgia. The perfect canvas to merge the past with the future." - Don Diablo
