Background Regarding the album and its predecessor ''Gravity'', Gryffin told ''BuzzFeed'' on a video call: "''Gravity'' was more environmentally themed and spacey. I wanted it to be about taking you to these worlds and places, this elevated gravity-type world. For ''Alive,'' I wanted it to be a little more human-focused—focused on the emotions that we go through as human beings whether it's joy, happiness, sadness, or dealing with loss, the gamut of emotions that humans go through and makes us feel alive. I wanted to give more of an organic, human-type feel to this album rather than the space vibes of ''Gravity''." Consisting of a total of 17 tracks, the album features 11 previously released singles from 2020 to 2022. Much of the album was made ...

Dance Music
Dance music is music composed specifically to facilitate or accompany dancing. It can be either a whole musical piece or part of a larger musical arrangement. In terms of performance, the major categories are live dance music and recorded dance music. While there exist attestations of the combination of dance and music in ancient times (for example Ancient Greek vases sometimes show dancers accompanied by musicians), the earliest Western dance music that we can still reproduce with a degree of certainty are old fashioned dances. In the Baroque period, the major dance styles were noble court dances (see Baroque dance). In the classical music era, the minuet was frequently used as a third movement, although in this context it would not accompany any dancing. The waltz also arose later in the classical era.
