Named as one of our 'Artists to Watch' for 2016, Perth producer ELK ROAD is proving to be worthy of the title, with his new energetic track 'Lights'.

Named as one of our 'Artists to Watch' for 2016, Perth producer ELK ROAD is proving to be worthy of the title, with his new energetic track 'Lights', premiered on triple j's 'Good Nights' with Linda Marigliano last week.

This high energy, bouncy track features vocals from Oly, and is a perfect dance track. Elk Road said of the writing process for 'Lights': "I wanted to make something fun and energetic that contained all my favourite elements - soaring guitars, pounding basslines, steel drums, vocal melodies and so on. It started out as a really chilled track and as I worked on it over 6 months it progressively became more and more dance-floor." We're not entirely sure how it could've started as a chill track, because it's anything but.

The track itself is super bouncy from the get go, and is unlike anything on the market. It's packed full of pop synths, and Oly's vocals make for quite the anthem. Listen here:
