The superstar DJ and producer brings cinematic tension to the year's most standout OST with ‘Don’t Give Up’.
Tokyo, September 5 - Following a year of showstopping releases from the industry's top talent, the FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves soundtrack officially ups the ante yet again, this time with a forceful new contribution from one of the industry's most respected names, Solomun. Titled 'Don't Give Up', the release walks the line between the battlefield and the club with finesse, delivering a tension-filled cut that rewards patience with a hard hitting final act.
Just like the best combos, 'Don't Give Up' doesn't hit all at once. It unspools with atmosphere, gradually pulling listeners into its brooding tension, as progressive rhythms and minimal synthwork come together for a masterclass in dynamic restraint. Built for equal impact in either the club or the chaos of battle, Solomun's contribution is a slow burner that culminates in a late-stage payoff that's both deliberate and perfectly timed.
The release is the next facet in Solomun's prolific summer season, bolstered by his Solomun +1 residency at Pacha Ibiza, showstopping sets across Europe's biggest festivals, and momentous releases like his remix of Empire of the Sun's 'Television' and 'Love Recycled 4' (his latest installment in the decade-long series). With 'Don’t Give Up', he leans into a darker, more restrained register, proof that even when he changes pace, Solomun’s name remains shorthand for quality.
As Solomun adds: “It was a great pleasure to produce this track and to bring it to life with matching visuals during my set at the Sphere in Vegas. For me, it’s always about finding the balance between the perfect sound, the emotion that captures you - and never forgetting that it has to work on the dance floor.”
With each new release, the FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves soundtrack continues to raise the bar, pairing the franchise's genre-defining gameplay with cutting-edge music from the world’s top electronic artists. Curated by Salvatore Ganacci and already featuring standout contributions from Alok, Alan Walker, ARTBAT, Steve Aoki, and R3HAB, the project honors the legacy of FATAL FURY while pushing its score into uncharted territory.
The single lands via SNK in collaboration with MAHOOL, a specialist cutting-edge Saudi label at the forefront of global club culture — connecting visionary electronic sounds with the iconic spirit of Fatal Fury.
Solomun's 'Don't Give Up' hits streaming platforms on September 5. No quarters required.
About FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves:
SNK's beloved Fatal Fury series first hit the market in 1991, spearheading the fighting game boom of the 1990s that swept the industry thereafter. GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES (released in 1999) has, for some time, served as the franchise's most recent installment. But that is all about to change: 26 years on, a brand-new entry - FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves - is set to arrive on the scene! FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves features a unique art style that stimulates the senses, an innovative REV System that supercharges the excitement, plus a host of other battle systems even more robust than before. The game also breathes new life into the series by introducing two distinct control schemes (ensuring fun and excitement for newcomers and veterans alike) as well as other fresh features and elements. The streets of South Town are a hotbed of action, wild dreams, and even wilder ambition. Here, at long last, a new legend is about to unfold.
