Darijan Jonson has released his first single under Draki Records.
AMORE.
Written in Italian. Written in all caps. Left exactly as it is.
No translation. No softened version for another market. AMORE carries the softness of the word, but the record does not treat love as something clean or easy to explain.
It arrived overnight on May 20, 2025: the first official step from Darijan Jonson after his arrival at Draki Records, and the first signal of the world he is building around Electric.
- Artist: Darijan Jonson
- Single: AMORE
- Release date: May 20, 2025
- Label: Draki Records
- Available on: Spotify, Apple Music and all major streaming platforms
AMORE is not only a love song.
It is a memory trying to become sound.
The first single
Every first single has a strange job.
It has to introduce the artist without explaining everything. It has to open a door, but not show the whole room. AMORE does that by staying close to one subject: the private experience of love, seen through memory, distance and the small emotional scenes that stay with you longer than they should.
The song moves around feelings that are familiar but difficult to name:
- the sweetness of wanting someone
- the fear of being seen too clearly
- the nostalgia of a moment while it is still happening
- the electricity that appears before anything is certain
That last word matters.
There is something electric in the way AMORE feels: not loud for the sake of being loud, but charged. The track sits close to the wider world of Electric, with a sound that feels emotional, synthetic, romantic and slightly unstable at the edges.
A particular kind of love song
Darijan Jonson does not approach love like a perfect postcard.
In AMORE, love is closer to a scene from memory: a color, a face, a phrase, a late-night thought that keeps coming back. The record is built around personal experience, but it is not written like a diary entry. It leaves space for the listener to place their own story inside it.
That is part of the tension of the song.
The title is Italian. The writing is mostly English. The feeling sits somewhere between the two. For Darijan, language is not only a tool for meaning. Sometimes it is texture. Sometimes one word carries more emotional weight than a full sentence.
AMORE is that kind of word.
