Prepare to get captivated as two musical titans collide in a groundbreaking collaboration. 

Alan Walker, the Norwegian Grammy-winning electronic music legend and Pritam, India’s most celebrated and successful music director have come together for the very first time to deliver an unforgettable pop ballad titled Children Of The Sun, ushering in a new milestone in the world of cross cultural collaborative projects. Joining them with his soulful voice is the superhit Vishal Mishra.

Releasing today, via Warner Music India, the track is poised to be a global anthem that champions the supremacy of culture, camaraderie and community. Serving as a testament to the spirit of collaboration, the track is a celebration of a musical concoction that intertwines the best of Eastern and Western influences and soundscapes. It stands as a powerful example of how music can transcend geographies and genres, bringing together diverse talents to create something unimaginable.

The seeds of this collaboration were sown back in 2019 when Walker met with Pritam during the Mumbai leg of his Aviation World Tour. What began as a chance encounter blossomed into a 5-year long camaraderie fuelled by a shared passion for creating genre-blending music that pushes creative boundaries. Inspired by his constant travels to India, Walker crafted a melody that instantly resonated with Pritam which eventually led to the creation of Children Of The Sun.

Elaborating on the key takeaway from the track Alan Walker expresses, “I first met Pritam in 2019, and ever since, we've kept in touch and worked on releasing a track together. I’m really pleased with how it turned out – both the message and how it brings together different sounds and languages. The song carries a hopeful message, showing the creativity and strength of today’s youth, blending cultures and sounds that reflect the world they’ll shape. I’m full of admiration for Pritam, his incredible musical ear, and the way he works. Now I'm excited to show this to the world!”

The track's 80s synthwave vibe, combined with Walker's signature electronic beats, Pritam’s evocative composition and with it Vishal Mishra’s soulful vocals create a truly immersive listening experience. The song's lyrics, inspired by the sun's universal symbolism, evoke feelings of the enduring power of human connection. With its infectious melody, uplifting lyrics, and a chorus featuring a children's choir, this earworm is a powerful tribute to the next generation, interlaced with powerful messages of hope, resilience, unity, motivation and happiness.

Reflecting further on the collaboration, Pritam adds on, “Music has the power to heal, inspire, and unite. I hope that 'Children Of The Sun' will touch the hearts of listeners around the world and bring a message of hope and unity. I am extremely elated to work with Alan Walker on such a meaningful project. His innovative approach to making music and keen understanding of the audience’s musical taste has made this project even more special.”

To complement the audio release, Walker is in India with his 10-city Walkerworld Tour by Sunburn.

Kicking off tomorrow in Kolkata on September 27, the tour will traverse the country, visiting cities like Shillong, Delhi NCR, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kochi, Pune, Mumbai and culminating in Hyderabad on October 20.

This marks one of Walker's largest-ever tours in India, with an expected attendance of over 100,000 fans. To add to the excitement, the tour coincides with the release of his new track, Children Of The Sun, offering Indian audiences a unique chance to witness the live debut of this collaboration.
