Swedish-Balkan artist GINAxC unveils her latest single “My Darkness (Dorian Gray)”, the final preview before the release of her forthcoming album MY DNA, out on September 16th. Steeped in shadow and allure, the track showcases a refined balance between cinematic atmosphere and club-ready drive, confirming GINAxC’s distinctive voice in the electronic pop landscape.
The rhythmic structure immediately stands out, built upon a hypnotic pulse that never loses momentum. Its steady beat recalls the inevitability of a heartbeat, guiding the listener through a dark, intoxicating soundscape. Layered on top are crisp percussive elements that add tension and movement, ensuring the song remains firmly anchored to the dancefloor even as it drifts into gothic territory.
Synths take center stage in “My Darkness (Dorian Gray)”, weaving textures that are both elegant and unsettling. Deep, brooding basslines form the track’s foundation, while shimmering top layers introduce flashes of light, as if piercing through the shadows. The hypnotic loop, composed by GINAxC herself, becomes the song’s spine—a sonic motif that captures both the cinematic inspiration of the piece and its irresistible club energy.
Atmospherically, the track thrives on contrast. It draws inspiration from the 2009 film adaptation of Dorian Gray, echoing its themes of vanity, corruption, and seduction. Lyrically, GINAxC channels the moment when bitterness transforms into empowerment, when darkness is no longer feared but embraced. The result is a narrative steeped in elegance and danger, perfectly mirrored by the music’s intoxicating blend of shadow and rhythm.
With “My Darkness (Dorian Gray)”, GINAxC delivers a release of striking quality—an electronic pop gem that feels at once intimate and cinematic. Both alluring and unsettling, it cements her ability to craft songs that not only sound polished but also linger with emotional depth. A high-caliber release we are delighted to feature.
