The global electronic music scene is about to experience an enchanting new journey with the release of Forever Bliss, the latest EP from The DARA & Forhan Wickel. Dropping this Friday under the renowned Ukrainian label Dear Deer Black this release marks a deeply personal and artistic milestone for The DARA.
Having performed in over 33 countries, including the legendary Burning Man, The DARA has captivated audiences with her immersive melodic techno and progressive house soundscapes. Now based in Riviera Maya, Mexico, she continues to push creative boundaries, and Forever Bliss stands as a testament to her evolution as an artist.
Art Without Borders
Beyond the hypnotic beats and ethereal melodies, Forever Bliss carries a powerful message. Speaking about the release, The DARA expressed her deep appreciation for being featured on a Ukrainian label during such turbulent times.
"First and foremost, it is an honor for me to be released on a Ukrainian label. I am grateful to the Dear Deer team for supporting our collab track with Forhan and my solo one, despite the extremely hostile circumstances between our countries. I believe that art should not be restricted by frameworks such as war, politics, and the like."
Her words resonate with the idea that music is a universal language—one that transcends conflict and unites listeners across borders.

A Personal Breakthrough: The DARA’s Voice Takes Center Stage
For fans of The DARA, this EP also marks a significant moment: for the first time, both tracks on Forever Bliss feature her own vocals. She shared her excitement on social media, revealing how much it means to her to finally incorporate her voice into her music.
"I’m also really proud of this release because I’ve finally sung. Both tracks feature my voice. And I am overjoyed to get your notes on how you felt when listening to the tracks and the feelings they created in you."
Listeners have already started responding, describing her voice as hypnotic and deeply moving—an element that perfectly complements the rich, emotional depth of her production.
The Sound of Forever Bliss
With its dreamy yet driving energy, Forever Bliss invites listeners into a sonic space where emotion and rhythm intertwine seamlessly. The EP embodies the essence of The DARA’s artistry: a blend of deep, melodic grooves and an ethereal, almost ritualistic atmosphere. Forhan Wickel’s contribution further enhances this journey, adding layers of complexity and emotion.
