Morgin Madison – ‘Drifter (feat. Dominique)’
“With ‘Drifter‘, I wanted to create a song that took my sound into a very intimate direction, while still holding onto my roots in progressive dance music. Once I teamed up with Dominique on vocals, the song became a beautifully nostalgic anthem about a one-sided relationship. While a lot of my music feels more vast and ethereal, ‘Drifter’ brings you in close for a bittersweet journey.”
