The Story
The song is a collaboration between “one the most visionary artists of our time,” Daví (USA), Radio Adidas DJ/Beatmaker, Fakepakt (Turkey) and music producer, AtillA (USA). The video and single were developed in both Istanbul (Turkey) and New York City (USA). Fakepaktdiscovered Daví on the online music platform,Soundcloud and after a few messages back and forth, the collaboration was soon set underway. As Daví and AtillA have been longtime collaborators, Daví reached out to AtillA to tell him about the collaboration with Fakepaktand it just so happened that AtillA knew Fakepaktthrough a childhood friend; the project soon after became a trio. The serendipitous and powerful combination of these three wild talents is heard like crystal in ”Clear”.
