LOS ANGELES, California—The multi-platinum producer Gryffin releases his 2023 first single “Dreams” via Darkroom Records.
“Dreams” is a reimagination of the 1993 hit of the same name by UK pop star Gabrielle. Gryffin returns to his signature “cloud house” sound but in a new and modern way.
This is also the first time Gryffin has reimagined a track as his own, and fans have been going crazy for it at shows. “Dreams” will come with a classic Gryffin “lifestyle video” of his adventures in Hawaii, further touching on the hopeful, carefree vibes of the new track.
With his album Alive, Gryffin displayed that he has further perfected his dazzling brand of club music, composing elaborate arrangements that are poised, urgent and addictive. Now with Dreams, he has tapped into his melodic house roots, creating a track that is upbeat, bright, and euphoric. The release follows recent acoustic version of “Woke Up in Love,” a collab with Kygo and Calum Scott.

Zohara (which garnered 6.5 million streams in its first few weeks and earned support from Tiesto, who featured the track on an Instagram story), and “All You Need to Know” with SLANDER ft.
