Alber-K has returned with his second single of the year, uniting with Nino Lucarelli to release their new stunner “Imperfect The Same.”
The infectious dance track follows Alber-K’s earlier 2024 single “Stay,” which has amassed over a million streams on Spotify since its February release, deeply resonating with the artist’s growing audience.
A rising DJ and producer, as well as researcher and engineer in music technology, Alber-K got his first big break in his early teens, performing at some of Brussels’ most prestigious clubs at the age of 15. This led him to study sound engineering and applied sciences in London, followed by electronic engineering studies in Atlanta. He has supported the likes of Oliver Heldens, Malaa and Jay Hardway on the live circuit, and strives to combine his deep background in music technology with his passion as a dance music producer.
Boasting prestigious collaborations with the likes of KAAZE, Burak Yeter, DubVision and Raiden, Lucarelli serves as the perfect vocalist for “Imperfect The Same,” a song about how people’s differences and struggles can bring them together.
Driven by Alber-K’s infectious production, “Imperfect The Same” immediately gets into action with a series of intimate string melodies that blend with Lucarelli’s powerful vocals. Alber-K stuns with the dance-pop tune’s arrangement as he combines organic instruments with bright synths for an infectious result.
“The phrase ‘We’re Imperfect The Same,’ which is the origin of the song, evokes the fact that differences and struggles bring us together,” explained Lucarelli. “The lyrics surrounding this song depict a fallen relationship because it focuses on imperfections, differences and problems rather than what brings us together. It’s a metaphor for the bad vibes in the world—wars, crises, depressions, burnouts, et cetera—we’re always complaining and focusing on the negative aspects of life, rather than the positive.”
“The text written by Nino Lucarelli really touched me and inspired me to reinterpret the relationship between technology and humans,” adds Alber-K. “At the time I created this song, there was talk of AI taking control of music. Originally, technologies enabled us to produce or create things that were often imperfect, which humans could then improve. It’s all part of an artistic process. But once again, creativity, humanity and positivity will save us. Nino’s vision and mine came together to give birth to this song. My dearest wish behind this piece is that the people who listen to it have a great summer.”
