Victor Sebastian sets ablaze the dancefloors on his sophomore single "Morning Lights". The instantly infectious hook, combined with a bouncy bass-line, is sure to send people through the roof with euphoria. In the wake of the darker, and somewhat foreboding, first single "Screaming Your Name", this song signals the beginning of the roaring 2020s, full of love, life, and playfulness. Sparks are flying as lovers lock eyes, and the first sunlight strikes the skies. "Morning Lights is about that momentary infatuation and mischievous spark that you may glimpse in someone's eyes. It's about having fun, feeling it more intensely than ever, and experiencing it with someone special. Life is eternal in that moment, and that moment will eventually become how you recall your entire youth. I think that when we bounce back from this lockdown, there will be a situation like the 1920s, meaning, quite literally, that we will experience roaring 2020s. That is the essence of Morning Lights - let's just have a ball!" As the 'recipe' for funky bangers go, this single has it all - even a lively string-section that amplifies the grand finale of the song into an explosion of funky disco/pop-galore. The instruments have their own attitude, and their loose tightness makes for a cheeky ride through the funk-verse of euphoria. With a little of the '80s residue from his first single "Screaming Your Name" sprinkled over the funky disco-flavours of "Morning Lights", it places the song in the august company of contemporary influences, like Dua Lipa's "Future Nostalgia". "Morning Lights" announces the coming of spring and the return of good times on an upbeat and hopeful note, while warming us up to his upcoming summer single. Victor Sebastian also portrays the male lead 'Carl', in the web series "FLUSH", streaming in twelve episodes on TV2 Play. The cast also includes Nathalie Albrecht, Mia Lyhne and Jesper Ole Feit Andersen, among others. Victor has been a songwriter and a musician for many years. His music from other projects has been played on the radio, and in television (including the DR drama series "Deliver Us"). He also writes songs for other artists and producers, and he has been selected for DPA's networking trip to Los Angeles alongside DJ Lilli, Mahrow, AMEA, and others.
