Israeli-born, Los Angeles-based producer ALRT returns to NIGHTMODE with “DOPAMINE HIT,” a high-octane fusion of nostalgia and modern bass music featuring vocalist Liam Elliott. Dropping March 28, this marks ALRT’s third release on the label, further solidifying his reputation as a boundary-pushing force in the global bass scene.
Rooted in UK garage and bassline, “DOPAMINE HIT” surges with frenetic percussion, haunting organ swells, and sharp piano stabs, all orbiting Elliott’s raw, impassioned vocals. ALRT masterfully channels the high-speed chaos of early rave culture while infusing the precise, bass-driven textures that define modern dancefloors.
This release follows ALRT’s previous NIGHTMODE singles, “The Need” and “Big Bass,” both praised by global tastemakers and leading dance media outlets, including UKF, Louis The Child, Axel Boy, Yadosan, Afrojack, Zeds Dead, Malaa, OOTORO, Nostalgix, EDM House Network, The Music Essentials, EKM, and more. To celebrate, ALRT will host an intimate Los Angeles launch party, with details forthcoming.
Since launching the ALRT project in 2018, Irad Brant has championed his signature “NRG” ethos—an unrelenting commitment to high-energy music across genres. His diverse catalog includes releases on Ultra, Deadbeats, Musical Freedom, STMPD RCRDS, and Dim Mak, with support from industry heavyweights like Afrojack, Zeds Dead, Malaa, and Louis The Child. DJ Mag has also spotlighted him as one of electronic music’s most promising rising talents.
Delivering a potent mix of rave nostalgia, visceral emotion, and cutting-edge production, “DOPAMINE HIT” is a testament to ALRT’s mission to defy expectations while staying true to his roots.
“Definitely one of my favorite tracks I’ve ever made; it brings me back to growing up in the ‘90s and remembering the feeling of discovering new music through MTV after hours. It has a rave feeling to it, as well as being just a cool song to listen to with your friends in the car. It’s full of energy and it just hits the right spot for me. When I showed it to Tucker from NIGHTMODE, he was instantly on board and that really helped me put more trust in the song.” – ALRT
