Auckland’s own Josef Scott drops his latest gem, Summer Dopamine, an irresistible anthem that summons the spirit of summertime bliss. Channeling the charm of a modern crooner, Scott infuses 80s flair with contemporary indie soul vibes, creating a sonic tapestry reminiscent of Bowie’s timeless class coupled by Tame Impala’s indie charm. The chorus hits like a thunderbolt, leaving an indelible mark. But it’s not just the silky vocals that captivate—there’s also the seductive saxophone and the infectious rhythm, every beat, every second oozing with irresistible allure. With Summer Dopamine, Josef Scott invites listeners on a journey where the nostalgia of yesteryears meets the thrill of today.
Can you feel me? Feel me, feel me, Summer dopamine,
Can you feel me? Feel me, feel me, Summer dopamine,
“Summer dopamine was born out of my first winter in Boston. Come April I’d almost forgotten what it was like to feel warm outside, and as I found myself here for the foreseeable future I began reminiscing on my fondest memories from the homeland, New Zealand. I wanted to create a song that encapsulates the euphoria we feel for summer and fleeting romances that come and go.The cover art is an image I took on my way back to my apartment. Winter was coming to an end with spring just around the corner. I could feel asource of light and warmth casting above my head, as I looked up, I could see the sun beginning to pour against the top of the building with sea gulls airborne as the wind was keeping them afloat. The anticipation for summer kicked in.My aim for this next chapter of music was to explore and find a new sound that I resonated with that also continued the momentum from my Sophomore EP” ~ Josef Scott
