Sherwøød is back with his blistering new single, "Dopamine," a haunting auditory commentary on the digital addiction that has engulfed society in the age of modernity. This week, he followed the success of his debut single, "Pride," which led The Independent to suggest he could be the next James Blake with another genre-defying track in which hip-hop, indie electronica, and alternative sounds coalesce into an engrossing whole.
"Dopamine" is a taut and visceral reflection of the times we're in color timescale production. Introspective lyricism helps Sherwøød explore the disorienting highs and painful crashes of society's addiction to instant gratification. From infinite scrolling to instant gratification, "Dopamine" offers a visceral insight into the emotional whirlwind spurred by social media's omnipresent clutches.
"Dopamine" was produced alongside five-time gold record producer Joseph E-Shine. It is aptly a sneak peek into Sherwøød's self-titled forthcoming EP. "Dopamine" showcases his dynamic artistry and firmly positions him as one of the UK's most exciting upcoming talents.
With a hypnotic soundscape and a winking but urgent message, "Dopamine" is a wake-up call encased in an irresistible groove that stays with you long after the final note has fallen silent. With this release, Sherwøød continues to push sonic and lyrical boundaries, proving his sound is just as thought-provoking as it is innovative.
