Daniel Blume – “On The Side”
Irish electronic producer and vocalist Daniel Blume is back with a song that kicksstarts the roll-out of his next EP. Calling it “On The Side”, he crafted an emotive EDM banger with endearing tropical vibes. “‘On The Side’ was born at a time I’d been going through an experience where I was being played and strung along by somebody, and I wanted to try and channel that emotion into a really condensed and snappy vocal hook. It sat on my laptop for 2 years because I didn’t know what to do with it and then fast forward to now, it ended up being one of the key pillars that led me to discovering my sound as an artist, so it had to be the song that led this new era of my career,” Blume divulges. He paired this single with a live-performance video.
