Known for his honest, heart-driven songwriting, Dorian’s music is a reflection of his personal journey, one that he shares openly with his listeners.

His music has struck a chord with a wide audience, not just because of its catchy melodies and slick production, but because of the emotional draw and authenticity that underpin every track. After a creatively fruitful 2022, during which he released a series of singles, an album and an EP, Dorian took a brief hiatus from the music scene.

He describes the song as sounding “different than anything I’ve released thus far” and it’s easy to see why. “Reconnected” takes Dorian’s signature blend of genres and pushes it in a new, more dance-oriented direction, showcasing his versatility as an artist. Brought in by the flutter of airy instrumental tones, the sweep of sonic textures ushers in the uptempo punch of kick drum as Dorian’s soulful voice spins lively melodic leads above.

Building up the energy with rattling percussive shots and steady clicks, the shifting arrangement takes on a staccato quality to accent the rhythm, resulting in a superb new single that marks Dorian’s sensational return. Coming back with a fresh sound that still retains all the charm that fans have come to love about him, Dorian delivers an energising and infectious new outing that sees him return to the top of his game.
