HL & Elvii Unveil ‘Fighting for Freedom’ on Make Your Era

HL and Elvii come together on ‘Fighting For Freedom’, released on 6th February 2026 via Make Your Era. The track marks a bold collaboration between producer and vocalist, delivering a vocal-led blend of mainline drum and bass groove and punchy jump-up energy, positioned squarely between commercial accessibility and underground credibility.

Driven by a confident vocal hook and forward-moving rhythm, ‘Fighting For Freedom’ is built for impact without sacrificing intent. Rolling basslines and sharp drum programming give the track its weight, while the arrangement leaves space for emotion to cut through. The result is a record that works across environments, equally at home on festival systems, in clubs, or through headphones, without leaning too heavily in any one direction.

At the heart of the track sits Elvii’s vocal performance, written from a place of personal frustration and release. The lyrics reflect the feeling of being stuck in a routine that pulls focus away from creativity, capturing a moment many listeners recognise. Rather than over-polishing the message, the vocal remains direct and honest, giving the track its emotional core and sense of resolve.

For HL, the production reflects a developing but focused artistic direction. Drawing on contemporary drum and bass while maintaining clarity and structure, the track demonstrates a balance of energy and control. It is designed to move crowds, but also to stand up to repeat listens, favouring longevity over short-term impact.

The collaboration came together organically after HL discovered Elvii’s vocal work online and reached out with a clear shared vision. That alignment carries through the final record, with both artists meeting on equal ground and trusting the process rather than forcing compromise.

‘Fighting For Freedom’ lands on Make Your Era, a label curated by UK electronic artist Vibe Chemistry. Known for championing emerging talent and diverse sounds within the scene, the label provides a platform focused on development, visibility and forward momentum. The release fits naturally within that vision, highlighting artists at formative stages of their journey and giving them space to define their sound.
