Check it out here: Certain to transport listeners back to the Madchester Summer of Love era with its old school melody, bold beats and anthemic gospel-like chorus, "HOLD ON" ft. Mapei is without a doubt once of the strongest contenders for song of the summer for 2016. On working with Mapei for the track, Olsson explains. "We had been spending a lot of time working in the studio, mostly on her upcoming album. For the feature on "HOLD ON," I wanted someone who could tear down a wall, but sound like the Shangri-Las at the same time. Mapei was perfect for this." A major contributor to the songs power comes from the chorus, which in true fighting spirit Olsson went hard when choosing the right collaborators for this. "I've always been obsessed with gospel choirs since I was a kid, so "HOLD ON" had to have one. Back in 2015 I went to London and just recorded a gospel choir whose members included Vula Malinga (Basement Jaxx, Sam Smith), Adeleye Omotayo (Amy Whinehouse), Sam White (Florence & the Machine) and Eska Mtungwazi. They are a powerful layer on the record."follow OLSSON On:
