Massachusetts producer Colin Domigan has been around the block a few times. While fatherly duties have mostly kept him tucked away of late, the man was a crucial figure in Boston’s underground dance music scene for over a decade as a musician, DJ, and promoter. With an explorative ear and an internet-fluent persona plus serious chops behind the decks and the MIDI keyboard, Domigan has fit right at home at parties that stretched from trap to house to hyperpop and back again, racking up opening duties for some of dance’s biggest names. That kind of range hits home on Colin Domigan, his first full length solo release since 2017’s Buddy List. Folding in bloghaus, UKG, electronica, and drum-and-bass (among other subgenres), Domigan is a certified tour-de-force and a welcomed return for one of the city’s most playfully unique voices. Domigan is sharing the album’s second and final single “Normie (Electronic Dad Music)” with Allston Pudding today, and it’s an ode to everyone out there fighting the “is washed” allegations on dancefloors all over. It’s also a picture-perfect slice of thumping house primed to knock out any club or porch or backyard that would have it. Press play on the stream and read a little more about the song’s inspiration below.
The Normie EP, which include remixes from SOL, YURGIS and ALEISTER (all remix contest winners from a campaign hosted by Audius), is out on streaming services today, July 7th.
