Lost In Dreams unveils “Nightmare” on June 13, the third single from William Black’s highly anticipated new album. Featuring collaborations with Fairlane and Amidy, the track is a sweeping melodic bass anthem that merges raw emotional turbulence with cinematic rocktronic textures and shattering dubstep drops.
“Nightmare” unites three unique voices in the electronic landscape, each contributing to an emotionally immersive journey. Fairlane’s guitar-driven intro builds a cinematic tone, layered with moody atmosphere, while Amidy’s haunting topline delivers a vulnerable yet commanding vocal performance. As tension mounts, William Black steps in with soaring arpeggios and lush synthscapes, unleashing a high-octane drop packed with jagged bass and piercing sound design.
“‘Nightmare’ is one of my favorite tracks I’ve made so far,” says William Black. “The duality of melodic yet heavy drops takes the listeners on an emotional journey.”
Following the release of “Save Me” and “Waiting On This Day Forever,” this single further defines William Black’s artistic evolution—honing a sound that is both deeply personal and festival-ready. With support from Illenium, Frank Walker, and features in tastemaking platforms like This Song Slaps, Fresh Music Freaks, and EDM Sessions, he continues to push the boundaries of what melodic bass can express.
A fixture in the genre, William Black has become synonymous with emotionally resonant dance music, known for standout performances at Starbase, Lost In Dreams, Beyond Wonderland Chicago, Goldrush, and Red Rocks, along with major collaborations with SLANDER and Illenium.
Fairlane brings a hybrid of electronic precision and live instrumentation to the track, while Amidy, with his emo rock influences and cinematic writing style, offers both vocals and lyrical depth. The result is a powerful, reflective piece that explores inner turmoil and catharsis in equal measure—pushing melodic dubstep into more intimate, emotionally charged territory.
“Nightmare” by William Black, Fairlane, and Amidy is out now on all platforms via Lost In Dreams.
