Serotonin by Joris Voorn

For his fifth artist album, released twenty years after his first, Joris Voorn holds back on the peak-time thrill to highlight the emotive side of his music. The Dutchman presents an audial diary laced by intimacy, vocal magic and personality: ‘Serotonin’.

Chockfull of immersive storytelling, strong vocal performances and an emotional tribute to his father, ‘Serotonin’ is rooted in Joris’ wealth of personal experience as a DJ, producer and human being. Much like the chemical compound it’s named after, the thirteen-track album presents listeners with a sparkle of happiness as well as the means to handle hurt, and enfolds the sweet spot between emotion and danceability.

From ‘Session One’ and ‘Moon’, both reflective of personal moments and memories, to lead single ‘You & I’, all thirteen tracks form a cohesive mix of emotion, balancing the heartfelt with the lighthearted. So whether on the dance floor or at home on the couch looking for a soundtrack to an easy night, ‘Serotonin’ is designed to make you feel.

Joris Voorn sits at the epicenter of the Dutch electronic music scene, the most renowned and instantly recognisable artist from Holland, representing underground house and techno on a wider global stage.
