Joris Voorn – Serotonin [Spectrum]

For his fifth artist album, released twenty years after his first, Joris Voorn holds back on the peak-time thrill to highlight the emotive side of his music. The Dutchman presents an audial diary laced by intimacy, vocal magic and personality: ‘Serotonin’.

Chockfull of immersive storytelling, strong vocal performances and an emotional tribute to his father, ‘Serotonin’ is rooted in Joris’ wealth of personal experience as a DJ, producer and human being. Much like the chemical compound it’s named after, the thirteen-track album presents listeners with a sparkle of happiness as well as the means to handle hurt, and enfolds the sweet spot between emotion and danceability.

All thirteen tracks form a cohesive mix of emotion, balancing the heartfelt with the lighthearted. So whether on the dance floor or at home on the couch looking for a soundtrack to an easy night, ‘Serotonin’ is designed to make you feel.
