The Russian DJ/Producer ARTY is back on Anjunabeats as ALPHA 9 with a very personal release ‘The Purpose Is You‘. This track means a lot to Artem as he pays tribute to his fans and mental health awareness.

The story behind this track is deeply personal to ARTY and it sure holds a special place in his heart. With a motive to create awareness about mental health, this new release is nothing short of pure bliss. The emotion in the track comes from real feelings as ARTY explains it in this statement below,

It’s hard to find words that would outline the importance of this track to me. I’ve been nurturing this idea for a long time but making a song based on some of your worst life experiences and memories is very tough. Yet, it’s an extremely important subject that needs much more attention and awareness so I want to share it with as many people as possible. Depression and anxiety are real and it’s terrifying. I went through severe depression myself a few years ago, I saw my friends going through the same struggle and sorely, some of them will never come back. But there was something that gave me a lot of hope and inspiration to make this song. It was messages from my fans, who were sharing the stories of them fighting depression. For some of them, music was the last boundary before they would be gone forever. I wanted to make this record as a reminder to myself and to anyone in need or going through dreadful times in their lives. Even in the moments when we feel the lowest and we see no reason to go on living, there is always someone or something worth living for. And beyond all, there is always a purpose: the person that you see in the mirror.

Well-known for his progressive sound, ARTY, or in this case his trance alias ALPHA 9, he always delivers something special for us. And this new release of his ‘The Purpose Is You‘ is a perfect example of this. Produced with such a personal and powerful feeling, it touches the listener on a very emotional level. The track gives off a sweet-uplifting vibe that is achieved by ALPHA 9‘s pleasant melodies and vocals. He hits all the right notes for delivering an emotional rollercoaster for us listeners.

And wherever you are in the world, if you’re feeling down, sad or depressed always remember that YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
