I was in the UK last year after a massive summer of touring, 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 feeling really inspired and wanted to write a feel-good record, reminding myself of the importance of saving time for the ones I care 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, it inspired me, and 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.

Saving Up

Grammy nominated Australian DOM DOLLA is experiencing a meteoric rise, his signature style of house music is connecting with global audiences, and he is recognised as one of the most exciting producers in electronic music.

Dom discovered house music when his Mother handed him a copy of Basement Jaxx’ 2001 album ‘Rooty". In his late teen’s Dom spent weekends hosting pub‑discos & djing at parties whilst working as a graphic‑designer during the week. In 2015 Dom was encouraged to quit his day job to pursue his obsession with music and production.

Dom emerged with a string of critically acclaimed club hits; Define, You, Be Randy, Take It, San Frandisco, Pump The Breaks, Moving Blind and Strangers ft. Mansionair. In 2022 Dom released ‘Miracle Maker’ ft. Clementine Douglas which was named BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record In The World, propelling Dom into his global break‑out moment with a run of hit singles, Rhyme Dust w/ MK, Eat Your Man w/ Nelly Furtado, Saving Up, girl$, CAVE w/ Tove Lo and Dreamin ft. Daya, which saw Dom’s catalog surpass 1 BILLION streams, receiving a GRAMMY nomination for his remix of ‘New Gold’ by Gorillaz feat.
