With her latest single, Daya turns up the intensity and tells heartbreak: “don't call.”
Daya, the Grammy-winning artist behind global hits like The Chainsmokers’ “Don’t Let Me Down” and LLENIUM and Gryffin’s “Feel Good,” is back with a stunning new single, out now on Spinnin’ Records. Produced by Cazzette’s Sebastian Furrer, “Don’t Call” showcases Daya’s knack for weaving emotive stories with genre-bending precision.
On “Don’t Call,” the celebrated singer delves into the world of drum & bass while still retaining her signature pop charm. The song’s ethereal synths and upbeat beats create a vast, expansive soundscape that contrasts beautifully with the intimate, confined energy that inspired its creation. Written in a small room in a Swedish building that was once a prison, the song feels like a heartfelt escape, with Daya’s falsettos and aching vocals soaring over the production.
The lyrics speak of pain and the liberation that comes with letting go. The song’s climactic moments are underlined by subtle yet impactful drum & bass elements, which add a dynamic intensity that heightens its emotional weight.
“The next week I was in Oslo and I couldn’t stop dancing alone in my hotel room,” Daya recalls, reflecting on the song’s creation. “I was walking around listening to it loudly on my headphones and looking at the statues in the park on my birthday. It seemed very appropriate for the freedom I was feeling at that time in my life.”
