A New Tribute Song To Orlando Shooting Victims By Bates Belk
Bates Belk pays tribute to the Orlando shooting victims with a new song and EP titled “Dancing With Bullets”. Our heart breaks every time we remember those 49 innocent lives of the Pulse nightclub back in June 2016. For this reason, the producer is using his music to achieve a meaningful way of raising awareness about the gun violence problem. On a side note, royalties from this tune will benefit the onePULSE Foundation, which remains active in the fight against hate and discrimination.

Belk who is an American citizen, relocated to Germany to evolve as an electronic musician. Nowadays, he is in disagreement with the gun culture in the states because it takes the lives of hundreds of people year after year. With this in mind, here we have another upbeat protest song that addresses this issue just like Madonna’s “God Control”.
In his latest music video, you can learn the most important facts about the tragedy. Besides, this is a special song that spreads a message of freedom and living life to the fullest. Sung by Coco Safir, “Dancing With Bullets” forms part of ‘The Dark Spektrum’ album to be released on March 6th. Believe it or not, this upcoming material will feature the participation of 50 Berlin-based artists and even an orchestra. Isn’t that impressive?…

With the veteran producer’s chameleon-esque prowess when it comes to mastering different styles of music, R3HAB fuses breezy melodies and a soft, undulating bassline to bring a worldly, organic feeling to this euphonious song.

Filmed in northwest Saudi Arabia’s ancient city of AlUla, the accompanying music video tells a story of R3HAB on a pilgrimage for the source of a song, and after journeying all day, has an incredible celebration of music with Now United. No matter if you’re a fan of electronic or softer styles, “Run Till Dark” is truly a feel-good gem, following R3HAB’s collaboration with Afrojack “Shockwave,” and on the flip side, Now United’s most recent “Forever United Tour” which saw the global pop group performing at legendary venues in São Paulo, Brazil (Allianz Parque Stadium), and Lisbon, Portugal (Altice Arena). In the past, R3HAB has also produced and written the following hit singles for Now United – “Jump” (over 57M views on Youtube) and “One Love” (54M views).
“I have always been a huge fan of how Now United represents so many cultures in harmony, so I’m beyond excited to join forces again for our new single ‘Run Till Dark’ because their vibrant pop energy pairs naturally with my vision of dance-pop. In “Run Till Dark,” we tap into the unique musical pulse the world has to offer, which we captured in our new music video shot in the mesmerizing oases of Alula. Our hope is that listeners realize we’re all running to the same pulse and, in this moment, feel how connected we are.” — R3HAB
