Dylan Joshua drops slick new single ‘can’t stay’

Toronto hailing self-taught songwriter and producer Dylan Joshua delves into the painful thoughts and feelings surrounding the imminent ending of a turbulent relationship. Dylan’s unique brand of V&B – vibes and blues – is expertly crafted, with an essence of chilled, dreamy sounds, pulsing beats and echoey, distorted vocals.

Speaking of his new release, Dylan Joshua said: “can’t stay is the honest truth of me realizing the ending of a relationship and my thoughts on it. A lot of the music I make I just make for myself, I don’t write with the intention to put it out, so with my music, listeners are really just getting the true stream of thought of what I’m dealing with. Hopefully it opens up conversations for people to talk more about the issues they’re going through, unlike I did. I know for me personally, especially when things aren’t working out in a relationship it takes a toll because it’s like fighting a secret war. You don’t wanna show anyone there’s trouble in paradise so you kind of bottle it up. Thankfully I have music as an outlet but to the people out there who don’t it’s definitely a struggle I empathize with. It can be very draining.”

Dylan’s trademark sci-fi style surely sets his offering apart, creating a truly alluring element that is hard to miss and easy to get lost in. His recent ‘hologram’ EP amassed a notable 1 million streams, and the release of his upcoming EP is one to await with eager anticipation.
