Gryffin teams up with Illenium and Daya for the soaring melodies of "Feel Good"
Following last year's collaborations with Josef Salvat and Bipolar Sunshine, Gryffin is back with new single "Feel Good" which sees the longtime guitarist and classically trained pianist go for the pop jugular.
Los Angeles-based producer and artist Dan Griffith has been making music under his Gryffin moniker since 2014. With guest vocals from Daya and Illenium working on the arrangement, the three piece make a good team and deliver with "Feel Good", a soaring EDM-pop anthem.
Commenting on the insentity of Daya's lyrics, Griffith says he "wanted the production to reflect that intensity, but at the same time create a really positive vibe."
"My goal with the song was to find that balance," he continues. "I ended up hitting it by adding a lot of synth sounds I’d never used before, and by bringing in different guitar textures and then flipping them in a new way. That’s what the Gryffin project is about overall: making electronic music but using real guitar and real piano so that there’s this organic feeling to every song."
In a world where The Chainsmokers are ruling the charts and the 'pop-drop' is everywhere, it's Daya's voice, lyrics, and the live instrumentation from Gryffin that really lift "Feel Good" above and beyond the expectations we now have of vocal-led EDM.
