Hot off the back of 6 ARIA Nominations, critically acclaimed DJ and producer Dom Dolla delivers a late summer anthem. As a matter of fact, the Australian star just released ‘Saving Up‘ via Three Six Zero Recordings, Ministry Of Sound UK, Sony Music ANZ, a track that has been a staple in his sets for the past year or so, as he stated in an Instagram post about the song.
‘Saving Up’ is a heartfelt, summer-drenched, hug-ya mate affirmation, born out of an end-of-summer studio session overlooking Brighton Beach (UK). The song is personal and reflective, exploring the theme of prioritizing relationships with loved ones over the relentless pursuit of personal fortunes, saving time for the ones you love. It shows Dom Dolla is at the top of his production game. In fact, ‘Saving Up’ is an uptempo disco-flavoured banger guaranteed to light up the dance floor. Whilst a 100% original composition, the record has a distinct sample-like quality, synonymous with disco and house. Here is what the man had to say about it :
“I was in the UK last year after a massive summer of touring when I caught the train down to Brighton with some friends and ended up in an incredible studio overlooking the beach. I was missing home a bit, but felt really inspired and wanted to write a feel-good record, reminding myself of the importance of saving time for the ones I care about and love. Whilst (in the studio) overlooking the same site Fatboy Slim hosted his ‘Big Beach Boutique’, I was thinking about the UK’s dance music history and it inspired me so I decided to lean into the idea of writing something that sounds sampled, but isn’t. I often like to write records completely on my own, but it feels so perfect to have written this one alongside some good pals, Clementine Douglas, Caitlin Stubbs & Toby Scott“
Obviously, 2023 has been Dom Dolla’s biggest year to date, delivering a succession of critically acclaimed singles ‘Rhyme Dust’ w/ MK and ‘Eat Your Man’ ft Nelly Furtado. We can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2024.
