DOPAMINE FIX – “REAL”

DOPAMINE FIX, featuring Aidan Macnamara and Eoin Devereux, offer another thought‑provoking single with “REAL”. This track follows their debut “Welcome To The Sharktank”, yet rather than describing the system it turns inward to examine what remains after the chaos. In a world warped by artificial intelligence, disinformation and media manipulation, the song depicts a state where shared perception fades and reality becomes assigned rather than lived.

Within the song, a question repeats: “I can’t feel what you feel, how do we know one of us is real?”. The band notes that this is not merely a lyric but a test. “REAL” captures emotional numbness, isolation and the sense of watching life through glass. It suggests that connection persists without proof. This resonates in a time when digital spaces blur our understanding of what’s authentic.

The single was recorded across Berlin, Coventry and Limerick. Macnamara handles the voice and guitars, while Devereux contributes atmospheric electronics. Producer Mick Heffernan and mastering engineer Peter Montgomery complete the team. The track invites listeners to consider how easily reality can be manipulated, yet it also offers reassurance that if this message resonates, they are not alone. Listen to “REAL” and follow DOPAMINE FIX on social media for more releases this year.
