Homegrown pop star Pastiche leans into escapism with her euphoric new single ‘Dizzy’ , out today . Inspired by a wild night out, ‘Dizzy’ captures the exhilarating feeling of losing yourself on the dancefloor.
Pastiche says of the track: “Music is my escape from the world and the things I’m dealing with, just like how going out can be a way to let yourself lose control. It’s so freeing to be wild just for one night to feel something, meet new people, dance with strangers. ‘Dizzy’ is all about leaving your day to day behind and allowing yourself to be caught up in a whirlwind.”
