Ahead of Dom Dolla’s Friday night headline slot at LIV Golf Adelaide this week, the electronic producer and DJ has shared his brand new single, ‘Dreamin’.
A collaboration with synth-pop innovator Daya, ‘Dreamin’ is Dolla’s first release of 2025 and another ready-made festival hit sure to drive the fans wild this weekend.
Speaking about the tune, Dolla says, “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 adds, “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.”
Dolla also shared a music video for ‘Dreamin’ shot in Tokyo and directed by Kyle Caulfield and Shevin Dissanayake. The clip follows the life of an office worker over a week as he sits bored at work, commutes via the subway and passes out on the street after a late night of boozing.
“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,” Kyle Caulfield and Shevin Dissanayake explain. “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.”
