Good Day Noir Family,
I’ve been following Damien’s musical path for a while now and I’m always fascinated by the social commitment that this artist puts as the focal point of each of his compositions.
Joy (In My Own Time) is Damien’s Single
Another deep song, like all those proposed by this great artist.
The sound is acid and industrial and seems to describe the instability of certain moments in life. Even if everything seems to go wrong, “I got joy in my mind” that pushes me to continue even if I’m swimming against the stream.
This fighting spirit of never giving up distinguishes the character of this courageous artist.
The countdown that launches the chorus is fantastic in my opinion as it creates tension and allows the message contained in the lyrics to reach our ears even louder.
Damien never disappoints as his pure soul and artistic sincerity ooze from his songs.
Joy (In My Own Time) is Damien’s Single Out Now!
Deep and Sincere
Joy (In My Own Time) is Damien’s Single
Joy (In My Own Time) is a powerful declaration of self-affirmation, Joy (In My Own Time) draws on the artist’s own search for hope and strength during times of deep fear and insecurity.
The track, which boasts an array of beautifully layered harmonies and soul moving basslines, is released in partnership with Redcliffe social enterprise, ‘Tribe Clubhouse’, who are presently raising funds to buy a community van that can be used to collect isolated and fringe dwelling individuals and physically transport them to a place of connection and belonging.
‘Joy (In My Own Time) is specifically about the experience of feeling isolated and on the fringe’, DAMIEN says, “In my experience, people who struggle to connect with others are often battling inner and outer demons, which often see them left behind by the greater society. And these are the people, people like me, that Tribe Clubhouse wants to create space for, and to give opportunity to find belonging and joy, in their own time.”
DAMIEN had great success in 2022 with his second album, ‘Wrong Age. Wrong Race. Wrong Gender.’ which was a 4ZZZ album of the week and featured the single, ‘2 Out Of 10’ which was voted 68th on 4ZZZ Hot 100 countdown for 2022, and has followed that up with popular releases, ‘Nowhere’ and ‘Empty’ which are the first two singles from the artist’s forthcoming third extended release, ‘Candidate For The Abyss’.
