Blinders is back with a brand new festival and club banger that is sure to get fans on their feet and dancing.
The song, titled ‘Prayer’, combines Blinders’ signature sounds and energetic drops with a powerful techno breakdown. What sets this track apart is the addition of a catchy, melancholic female vocal that gives it a unique and captivating atmosphere.
The initial idea for the song started a few years ago when Blinders wanted to combine his signature sounds with a powerful techno breakdown. The result is a dark and futuristic track that draws inspiration from nature, particularly the alien-looking insect, Praying Mantis.
Blinders said, “I’ve been inspired by nature since I can remember. This time, I wanted to make a song that will be my sound vision of this alien-looking insect called Praying Mantis. My focus was on making it sound a bit dark and futuristic. I started this song before the pandemic when I was preparing music for Tomorrowland. Then the pandemic came, and I postponed working on this idea. The working title was ‘Mantis,’ but actually, when I came back to this idea, I found this acapella that seemed to fit the instrumental very well. In this context, it was nice to think about it as a prayer. That’s how I made ‘Prayer’.”
‘Prayer’ was recently premiered by Martin Garrix during his two big main stage shows at Tomorrowland Winter and Ultra Miami in March this year. The release of ‘Prayer’ marks the start of a new chapter in Blinders’ life and music career. Following the release of both the original version and dub mix of ‘Prayer’, Blinders will be heading back on tour, starting with a big college festivals tour in Poland at the end of May.
