Titan by SØNIN Endless Days is a melodic breakbeat track amalgamating the sounds of breakbeat and trance. The track since its launch received the support of quite some heavyweights including BBC Radio 1’s Danny Howard mix, Mike Saint-Jules, and Dylhen.

The genre-bending track, Titan features a mature sound design, heavy with emotion, melancholy and melody. SØNIN’s take on the fusion between the two genres is surreal. In the exclusive video, he shows how he came up with the main theme of the track, the drums, synths, and bass. He also shares how various small elements and adlibs add so much character to the track.
