Alesso's latest single, “Lonely Heart”, emerges with more than just a beat to move to: it's a journey into a deeper tech house dimension under his new alias Body Hi.
The song is a reimagined version of Yes' 1983 hit, “Owner of a Lonely Heart,” and marks a transformative shift for the Swedish dance music superstar, incorporating a sleek, minimalist beat that takes us into his groove-inducing orbit. . Body Hi was presented live to fans with a special DJ on this year's Do LaB stage at Coachella.
The new single embodies themes of connection and authenticity, inviting listeners to live their truth on the dance floor. With John Alto lending his vocals, Alesso reshapes the familiar melody, infusing it with a longing that resonates through layers of atmospheric production. Psychedelic bands lift Alto's vocals to the rafters, layered over a tight house beat laced with stabs of magnetic synth.
The song's mantra “move” echoes the call to fully immerse oneself in the rhythm and collective dance. With minimal vocal touches and stadium reverb, the track's arrangement reflects Alesso's love of four-on-the-track rhythms. Body Hi serves as an outlet for this introspective, house-infused production, offering a stark contrast to the expansive anthems and crescendos that have made it a mainstay on the world's biggest stages for over a decade.
