Adelaide favourite Motez has teamed with DOOLIE for new club hit ‘How Could I Forget You’.
Released last Friday (23 January), the track continues Motez’s hotstreak of crafting uplifting, dancefloor bangers, while DOOLIE’s mesmerising vocals add another layer to the track.
Speaking on ‘How Could I Forget You’, Motez says, “This song is about that sudden wave of love that hits you in the middle of a dance floor. That warm, overwhelming rush where the music swells, your friends feel close, and everything feels charged with meaning.
“It’s that euphoric moment when you just want to pull the people you care about into a hug, kiss the ones you love, and let yourself disappear into the emotion of it all, some of my favourite memories live there.”
DOOLIE adds, “The beautiful thing about making music is the ability to make memories. This song in particular was all about capturing that moment where all you feel is love, surrounded by your closest friends. How could I forget this moment, ‘How Could I Forget You’!”
