lpliveusername Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) Steve Aoki's new album entitled "Neon Future II" is set to be released on May 12th, 2015. Back in 2013, it was revealed that Steve Aoki and Linkin Park had been working on four or five songs together. Only few months after the release of their first collaborative track, A Light That Never Comes, they went back to the studio to work on new music for Aoki's new album, Neon Future. A Billboard article revealed this new track would be called Horizons. About the song, Steve said: "’Horizons’ definitely has the definitive ‘Neon Future’ sound. It’s not quite done yet, but it’s the track I have worked on the most of all the songs on the album and I can’t wait for people to hear it." @steve aoki now #neonfutureII is 99.3% finished... onward to the future@steve aoki Mastering session for #neonfutureII as we speak.@LucaPretolesi Full day #mastering session with @steveaoki for #neonfutureII @StudioDMI #STUDIOLIFE@steveaoki Final stage of #neonfutureII. #mastering @lucadigitalboy@steveaoki #neonfutureII 99.7% finished.@steveaoki Finished up the studio part of #neonfutureII and called my brother @thesharkdaymond to mothafuckin' celebrate with some mothafuckin' tea mothafuckaaaaasssss!!@steveaoki Finished up the studio side of #neonfutureII!!!! Now onto wrapping up all da paperwork and all that red tape signed off. This part sucks. Now that the album is completed, it will be released May 12, 2015 with Steve saying, "Neon Future II coming 5/12 ft. new music w/ @LinkinPark @SnoopDogg @RiversCuomo @NERVOmusic @MatthewKoma + more TBA!" 3/1 EDIT: Steve Aoki performed a live version of the song at his concert in Chicago, Illinois that was broadcasted via Yahoo! Live. Download + listen to the track here! The song is a mashup and has drops by R3hab (Samurai) and DVBBS & MOTi (This Is Dirty). Lyrics here. 4/2 EDIT: "Horizons" is now "Darker Than Blood," and is the lead single from Aoki's upcoming album. The single will be released on April 14! What do you think?

Tyleronlplive Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Great news! I don't know if amything ever came of the other songs that they had worked on, I had never heard about anything besides Horizons until now.
hahninator Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Release date: May 12, 2015. https://twitter.com/steveaoki/status/570662351868973056
RogueSoul Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I wonder if Horizons will be along the same lines as ALTNC. It seems like he's worked A LOT more on this song than ALTNC, so we'll see.
hahninator Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Not a fan of this genre of jams at all with LP....glad they dropped ALTNC short, glad it was played once full band ever, glad they aren't doing more of this stuff, aaaaand I hope they don't play this one. I generally don't make such negative posts but I hate ALTNC...a lot.
RiderSSPU Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I'm excited! But we have to wait until May
crawling1986 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 wow this is cool news. i'm really excited. i think A light that Never Comes is one of the best songs. i wish i could be at a linkin Park show where they play the song live. i think this new song will be just as good. i hope maybe they will join steve aoke at one show and perform this song with him.
leftshoe18 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Pretty excited for the new Linkin Park track as well as the Rivers Cumo collab.
Broman Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Hope Horizons and ALTNC are tossed into future setlists. I dig the wide variety of music they've covered with their Carnivores Tour Setlist and for the European festivals before hand.
crawling1986 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 yeah, me too . i really like the sound on songs like A light that Never comes, It goes Through (Luna) from MALL, Lost in the Echo, In my Remains, Burn it Down, SKin to bone and more. i like the hard rock/metal sound that LP has too but i also love the electronic pop rock stuff too because not everything has to be super heavy, LP can do good in whatever genre they want to.

Coizu Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Before people start bitching about the song: It's a live recording/version. The actual studio version can be vastly different. It seems to be highly remixed for me so I'll wait until the studio version is out before I form my opinion about the song.
eXoBlackOut Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Whoa, talk about a surprise. How does it sound?
Coizu Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Here's my recording. I think the quality/volume is a little bit better than the other version that got posted before. https://mega.co.nz/#!6ZEQFbRB!nAGo2AZaxJKAjV_QZvu3UbsXHfz-K7uIF4ySXygx70Y
LPMaskMan Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Holy shit! That's pig disgusting pleb electro. Makes me puke. Edited March 1, 2015 by LPMaskMan
MONDREUS240 Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Mike + Chester singing together. Always sounds great
Igussek Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 "This is not original song. First drop is R3hab - Samurai and 2nd drop is DVBBS & MOTi - This Is Dirty. So this is mash-up."
