Alan Walker & Ava Max – Fate
O Fortuna is a poem from the medieval poetry collection Carmina Burana, which was put to music by Carl Orff in the 1930s. In the early 1990s, two Belgian dance acts simultaneously issues tracks that sampled this work, gaining high chart positions. However, they didn’t have the permission of Orff’s heirs, who had the singles removed from record stores and, consequently, the charts.
Apparently, the heirs did grant permission to Alan Walker & Ava Max to recreate the composition. Combining Walker’s beats and Max’s powerhouse vocals, they produced a pounding, empowering hi-NRG track, ready for dancefloors, festivals and workout playlists.
Fate by Alan Walker & Ava Max is the new Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. It will be prominently displayed at the top of the blog for an entire week.
