The Antwerp-based trio, Fortress, have returned with their second single of the year, "Holding On". The song has this big and washed-out synth tone that dominates things right from the get-go, and when you mix in those moody vocals it sets the state for you to be blown away.
If you're looking for some high-octane dark-pop filled with electronically charged keys then you just have to listen to Fortress and their new single.
Once the tempo of the track kicks up the drums start to fill up every part of your head, and from here you'll be addicted. Fair play to the trio as this song sounds absolutely huge in places, far surpassing my expectations and bringing me from a curious listener to a fan within the four-and-a-half-minute runtime.
The breakdown around the midway point it becomes majestic too, giving me some big Grimes feels as it is electronically charged and angelic at the same time. If you're looking for some high-octane dark-pop filled with electronically charged keys then you just have to listen to Fortress and their new single - they're certainly going places!
