Original track gains global reach

Hamza Malik and Zain Zohaib originally performed the song released in July 2026. It reached number one on Spotify daily charts in Pakistan and India. The track also achieved number twenty-six on the Daily Global Top Songs chart. Alan Walker noticed the music video featuring a masked figure resembling his hooded appearance. This observation led to an online interaction between the artists and the Norwegian producer.

Studio work in Lahore city

Walker subsequently visited Lahore to work with the Pakistani singers in a recording studio. The new version titled Alfaaz Alan Walker Relight combines traditional vocals with electronic production. James Arthur adds another international voice to the collaboration on the track. Giraffe Music led by Zulfiqar J Khan and CEO Muhammad Ibrahim helped bring this together. The label connects artists and ideas to reach audiences beyond local borders.

Artists express excitement for fans

According to Hamza Malik, witnessing Alan Walker link up with the track feels amazing. Zain Zohaib described the relight as a truly exciting moment in their musical journey. Zulfiqar Jabar Khan noted that music is one of Pakistan's greatest strengths globally. The collaboration represents a beautiful meeting of distinct musical worlds for listeners worldwide.
