New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Singer and dancer AleXa releases her second EP DECOHERENCE and its groundbreaking title track "Revolution." Watch the video for "
Revolution" here and see the DECOHERENCE track listing below.
The new EP follows AleXa's 2019 multilingual K-Pop debut single, the explosive "Bomb"; it received over five million views in one week and hit #7 on Billboard's "World
Digital Song Sales" chart. With more than 18 million views to date, AleXa's "Bomb" was produced by renowned Swedish composers at EKKO
Music Rights, the team behind hits by K-Pop mainstays Red Velvet, Twice, NCT and more. The song and video "Bomb" combine Brazilian Funk with electronic elements and Afrobeats choreography to create an exciting dance track that allows AleXa to showcase her powerful stage presence.
Next up for AleXa was her eight-track debut Do Or Die, which was helmed by a chart-topping team at one of the largest K-Pop song production houses and speaks with AleXa's all-or-nothing attitude. The "
Do Or Die" title track is a girl power anthem about facing your fears and [the ability to] overcome them," says Moonshine, comprised of songwriters
Ellen Berg Tollbom and Cazzi Opeia. "When you feel like you have no choice left but to fight for your life, you're only in it to win it." The music video for the "
Do Or Die" title track is a grand scale production highlighted by action scenes and CGI.
With the EP's newly released single and video, "
Revolution" fans will see the finale to AleXa's three-part ground-breaking music video concept, an AI caught in a multiverse storyline (detailed in "Allegory of the Cave," a hidden track on the physical copy of the new EP) which began with "Bomb," was followed by "
Do Or Die" and concludes with "Revolution."
"
Revolution" is a continuation of the storyline from "Do or Die" and concludes AleXa's origin trilogy. This epic multi-genre song consists of Hip Hop, Latin and
Symphonic moments to highlight the battle between AleXa and ZB Corporation. AleXa finds herself suspended in a dark liquid tank with sensors attached to her neck and arms at the ZB Corp headquarters. AleXa's body is numb but her mind is conscious, processing all her past memories of her previous simulations. Suddenly, she awakens and breaks through to the surface. AleXa knows her mission is not complete. AleXa will do more than escape-she will lead an uprising.
On the DECOHERENCE EP, AleXa joined forces with world-famous composers who have created chart-topping songs for acts such as BTS and Red
Velvet and producer Hwang Sungjin of RBW, label of Mamamoo and Oneus, who has contributed lyrics to continue to evolve her sound and grow her artistry.
AleXa will follow the EP's release with promotional activities while planning her next moves.
AleXa grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma. A lifelong dancer-having taken ballet, jazz, modern, hip-hop, lyrical and tap lessons when she was just 18 months old-AleXa was first drawn to K-Pop because of its strong performance identity.
AleXa's professional career kicked off in 2016 when she was chosen out of 5,000 contestants as the next "Rising Legends: Season 2" winner, a title she earned after nearly one million fans determined the winner. Winning the top prize in the show in 2017 gave AleXa the opportunity to travel to Seoul, South Korea, to record her own song and film and a music video. She went on to star in "LEGENDARY: Making of a K-Pop Star," a 2017 Viki Original series that followed her trip to Seoul to experience the K-Pop star treatment for the first time. AleXa went on to sign with Korean artist agency ZB Label in 2017. Once in Korea, AleXa beat out thousands of contestant hopefuls, and passed all three rounds of auditions for the third season of Mnet's "PRODUCE" series, where the competition was especially fierce, given the explosive popularity of the franchise and the participation of popular Japanese artists. Sadly, her journey on the show came to an end during episode five, but AleXa had won the hearts of both Korean and Japanese fans alike.
AleXa's debut blurs the line between reality and fiction-besides the creation of the artist itself, the debut of AleXa marks the birth of a new character. AleXa, created in a multiverse with every rendition of herself showing a different variation of the same existence, will show a range of themes and concepts through a large amount of content. AleXa can appear as everything, from the singer that we've already met, to a video game character, an animation, a reality show star, the girl next door or even the camera that is her namesake.
