The story behind the song

"Darker Than Blood" was crafted to explore a more emotional and darker side of Steve Aoki's "Neon Future" theme, contrasting with the party-themed songs of its predecessor. The song, featuring Linkin Park, underwent a lyrical transformation when Mike Shinoda rewrote Aoki's original lyrics, deeming them "too happy" for the intended mood. This collaboration, which had been in the works for years, ultimately aimed for a deeper, more intense feeling. It plays like a journey into the shadows of a futuristic soundscape.
