It&#8217;s catchy, danceable, and instantly memorable, with its propulsive and innovative style. It&#8217;s also witty and daring, and pretty much everything we&#8217;d ever want in one synth-pop song. Of course, it&#8217;s not a novelty for MkX, his previous work speaks for itself, having millions of streams, and &#8216;Fall&#8217; should likewise follow this path.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The video for &#8216;Fall&#8217; sees MkX demonstrate his resourcefulness behind the camera as well. Due to the Covid-19 crisis, MkX resorted to making his clip using blue screen. The whole video is a crazy hallucination, which sees him take a ride through a number of\u00a0 different backdrops, all produced digitally. It&#8217;s a great showcase for him to demonstrate his talent. MkX is seen in the screen of a video game; he&#8217;s sitting on a crystal throne; he surfs on lava. The one that stands out most of all however, sees him holding on for dear life to the ledge of a skyscraper, singing all; the while. His fingers loosen, he can no longer hold on&#8230;he plummets&#8230;yet his confidence and self-assurance is still evident, right to the end.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can watch the music video for &#8216;Fall&#8217; below.
