Dom Dolla Shares New Single 'Dreamin'' Featuring Daya

Dom Dolla is back with new music, dropping his latest single—and accompanying music video—for Dreamin’ today.

Featuring American singer Daya, Dreamin’ arrives after the Aussie DJ debuted the track during his record-breaking, sold-out national tour in December.

Dom Dolla said of his first new track of the year, “This record is about the flow state you can find yourself in when everything is going a little too well… the moment you’re struck by a tiny sobering piece of doubt that niggles at your peace of mind. A reminder that nothing lasts forever, this too shall pass, so you might as well give it everything.

“The challenge I gave myself with this record was to write the simplest melody I could muster (that didn’t drive me nuts). I brought it to the studio, where I met Daya for the first time. She is truly a talent to be reckoned with and has the most incredible voice. Initially, I thought such a simple melody would be wasted on a voice as great as hers, but she brought such character to the idea that it ended up being exactly what the record needed and then some.”

Daya added, “I’m so glad I could help write and perform on this song— Dom is a master of his craft, and it was exciting to dive into his world for it. I hope people can embrace both the darkness and the levity in it all at once.”

The Dreamin’ music video, directed by Kyle Caulfield and Shevin Dissanayake, was filmed in Tokyo. The directors commented, “Every part of making this video was incredibly special. From the formation of the idea to building the crew, all the way through to the execution—it was so effortless and so much fun. 

“The song fit the video perfectly and explained lyrically what the video couldn’t by itself, and vice versa. It’s since been cut together to be one of my favourite music videos I’ve ever worked on, and it’s really special to see it out in the world.”

While the music video hasn’t landed yet, you can listen to Dreamin’ below.

Dom Dolla’s December Australian tour sold over 170,000 tickets across four cities, making him the highest-selling individual electronic artist in Australia of all time.

Reviewing the Aussie producer’s show at The Domain in Sydney, The Music’s Jake Fitzpatrick wrote that Dom Dolla have the audience exactly what they wanted: “a solid mix of house, tech-house, and all-around feel-good energy.”
