Los Angeles, CA – Friday, September 11 – ALPHA 9, the concept-driven cosmic trance project spearheaded by acclaimed producer ARTY, returns to Dreamstate Records with “Warning Lights”, the third single of his ongoing 2026 release series. A progressive trance transmission steeped in cinematic suspense, the track advances the story of ALPHA 9, a genetically engineered, AI-powered government asset who returns to Earth to discover the planet on the verge of destruction; and that he may hold the key to its salvation.
Driven by celestial arpeggios, organ-laced builds and thunderous synth sequences, “Warning Lights” unfolds like the soundtrack to an impending planetary emergency. The instrumental gradually intensifies as layers accumulate, transforming its atmospheric opening into a full-scale sonic code red as ALPHA 9 confronts the fate of humanity.
“Warning Lights” continues the evolving narrative introduced through ALPHA 9’s previous Dreamstate Records releases, “Dark Matter” and “Ascend.” The first two chapters earned coverage from EDM Tunes, Trance Attack, Midnight Dance Music, Just a Wee Music Blog, Frontview Magazine, Find Your Sounds, Radio and Music, Drop Times, Party Time Magazine, Beat for Beat and Perspective, while drawing radio support from Armin van Buuren, Andrew Rayel, Markus Schulz, AVIRA, DIM3NSION, JES and Farius.
The release also expands ALPHA 9’s immersive storytelling universe beyond the music itself. The episodic series will be accompanied by custom A9 journal entries, offering fans a deeper look into the developing narrative and the voyager’s mission, alongside a special ALPHA 9 DJ Mix that further explores the project’s cosmic trance soundscape.
ALPHA 9 will continue bringing the project to audiences onstage with upcoming performances at Dreamstate SoCal and EDC Thailand.
