Released as part of a five-track compilation for the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), "Dopamine" delivers a straightforward, club-focused energy, fitting perfectly with the ADE’s atmosphere.

The timing of "Dopamine" aligns perfectly with the start of the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), which runs from October 16th-20th. ADE is one of the biggest gatherings in the electronic music world, hosting performances, panels, and events with top artists and industry figures. As a part of the Trace Amounts compilation, "Dopamine" is positioned to capture the attention of DJs and attendees looking for fresh tech house sounds during the event. With a focus on heavy beats and straightforward production, the track feels right at home at an event like ADE, where high-energy music thrives.

Blending Different Backgrounds and Sounds

"Dopamine" reflects the musical styles of both artists. Jun Wilder brings in elements from his electro and indie dance background, while ZAYTEK adds his signature groove, influenced by his experiences in the Washington D.C. club scene and his Mexican heritage. Together, they create a track that balances both of their approaches, resulting in a sound that doesn’t stray too far from tech house's core but still offers something unique to listeners. The track is a standout in the Trace Amounts ADE Compilation Vol. 01, where it holds its own among contributions from other rising producers.
