Darkside

"Darkside" is a 2018 electronic track by Norwegian DJ and producer Alan Walker, featured on his album Different World. It features vocals from Au/Ra and Tomine Harket, blending atmospheric synths with a melodic, hook-driven structure. For electric guitar players, adapting its signature synth arpeggios and chord progressions offers a rewarding challenge in capturing an electronic sound through guitar tone and effects.

  • The track features two vocalists — Antiguan-German singer Au/Ra and Norwegian singer Tomine Harket — giving it a layered vocal texture.
  • Released on 27 July 2018 via Mer Musikk and Ultra Music, the song received at least two remixes from DJs Lumix and Afrojack.
  • Recreating Walker's synth-driven sound on electric guitar pairs well with chorus, delay, and reverb pedals for an atmospheric effect.
