Felix Cartal Implores Us All To “Hold Tight”

Talented Canadian DJ and producer Felix Cartal is back with his new crisp single “Hold Tight”, recently released on Capitol, Polydor, and Physical Presents.

“Hold Tight” stays true to Cartal’s contemporary uplifting and melodic style. This wistful song stands out amongst his others with its sparse lyrical presence. However, it still maintains emotional intensity with the bouncing, arpeggiated words of the song’s title cleverly woven into the fabric of the song’s lilting melody.

“Hold Tight” is dreamy and blissful, evoking a message of fortitude and connection in an otherwise distant and disparaging world. It’s a song that will most certainly bring people together, especially in a live music setting, with its raw yet lighthearted intensity. This track reminds us that despite the adversity that threatens to divide us, we still have a safe place within electronic music and the broader community. We must indeed hold tight to those ideals, and maintain the connection that keeps us together.

This is the newest track in Felix Cartal’s prominent repertoire following closely behind “Get What You Give”, his bouncy rework of the late 90’s hit, which put him on the Top 40 charts earlier this year. Other hit tracks include collaborative works with renowned artists like R3HAB and Kaskade with “Killing Time” and “Fakin it”, respectively.

Cartal has officially remixed the talented likes of Galantis, Rihanna, and Selena Gomez, among many others, and has been playlisted on programs reaching far across the globe such as New Music Friday, Pop Rising, and Weekly Buzz. With millions of plays on Spotify, SoundCloud, and other platforms, Cartal has become a distinguished player in the EDM movement. Though Cartal’s style has shifted over time, he’s found the sweet spot where style and emotion meld into thoughtfully beautiful tracks.

Stay tuned for the official “Hold Tight” music video, coming out on October 6.
