Melbourne pop musician daine has just released her new single, dainecore, and it's full of energetic twists and turns. At times, daine sounds like she's fronting an emo band, while at others her voice barely registers above a whisper. Try to keep up with the music - it'll get your heart pumping.
The track features production from starcity collective affiliate Miniskirt, as well as Ninajirachi. It's a high-octane, high-energy track, and it's further proof that you can't place daine's sound in a box. She's always going to weave different influences and different sounds together to create the music she wishes already existed.
The video for dainecore is just as captivating as the track, and it feels like you're watching an exorcism. The video, which was directed by Sean Finney, is set in a fog-filled room, where daine breaks through the smoke. As the smoke fades, fans are welcomed into daine's world, and you'll get a glimpse of her innermost thoughts.
dainecore's release is part of a three-track taste of what sounds daine has been creating lately, with the previously released boys wanna txt and new track dying also included. You never quite know where daine is going to take you next, but that's part of the fun. Daine embraces the chaos, and we're all the better for it.
