William Black returns with his latest melodic bass offering, Goodbye, enlisting fellow bass innovators Blanke and emerging alt-pop voice MGRD. Out September 26th via Lost In Dreams, the single marks the fifth preview from William’s highly anticipated studio album, uniting three distinct voices for an emotionally charged journey.
Goodbye wrestles with the quiet ache of a breakup long overdue, capturing the silence of unspoken words when parting ways with someone destined to leave. MGRD’s velvety topline anchors the narrative, unfolding over a cinematic introduction built on driving guitar riffs and brooding rocktronica textures. Tension builds toward midtempo drops before giving way to a soaring melodic bass finale — balancing raw intensity with cathartic release.
“Goodbye is about that heart sinking moment when someone leaves you, and you’re left with the silence of everything unsaid,” says William Black.
This collaboration highlights William Black’s continued evolution as one of melodic bass’ most influential voices. Fresh off the success of his recent single Monster, which amassed over 350K streams in weeks and garnered airplay from Illenium and Frank Walker, William is unveiling his most ambitious album to date. His work consistently draws support from SiriusXM, Wave Music, Arctic Empire, and other tastemakers, with upcoming performances at Goldrush, Dooms Night, Ember Shores, and headline stops including Pure Nightclub, The Republik, and Aggie Theatre, as well as tour dates with SLANDER’s Voyager tour.
Blanke brings his versatile production mastery to Goodbye, blending crushing dubstep intensity with expansive melodic bass landscapes. Known for collaborations with Illenium, REZZ, Seven Lions, and Zeds Dead, Blanke continues to operate at the forefront of bass music, with performances at Nocturnal Wonderland, REZZ’s PORTAL show, and more dates on the Voyager tour.
MGRD, the alt-pop project from singer-songwriter Megan Redmond, injects a human vulnerability into Goodbye, delivering emotive vocals that thread seamlessly through the track’s layered, cinematic production.
Together, William Black, Blanke, and MGRD deliver an anthem that bridges the catharsis of dubstep with the raw honesty of alt-pop, solidifying Lost In Dreams as a home for deeply emotive bass music.
Goodbye is available now on all streaming platforms via Lost In Dreams.
