NURKO & DEVON BALDWIN - HALLELUJAH
Music, Original MixCommentReprising a timeless classic, Nurko has returned with his repeat collaborator Devon Baldwin for a melodic bass rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.” Drawing from his melodic bass background, Nurko, brings his high-intensity sound to a remarkably solemn track, escalating the guitar-laden ballad into a full-blown festival floor filler. Working alongside his “Blindspot” collaborator, Devon Baldwin, the singer-songwriter lends her gorgeous vocals to the timeless production, creating a haunting atmosphere.
“I’ve always thought Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallelujah’ was such a beautiful song. There is also a clip of Chester Bennington singing the chorus at Chris Cornell’s funeral. It really impacted me and showed how much this song moves people. Especially the chorus. I wanted to replicate the beauty of the original, with my own melodic bass twist.” -Nurko
“Hallelujah is one of those songs that just never gets old for me. I think it might be the most moving song ever written, both melodically and lyrically, and it honestly feels like a privilege to sing. Nurko is so good at bringing even more nuanced emotion through his chord changes and production style, I was so stoked when he asked me to cover this classic song with him.” - Devon Baldwin
