RetroVision’s New Single ‘Don’t Wake Me Up’: A Pop-EDM Masterclass

RetroVision Sparks a Neon Revival with New Pop Single “Don’t Wake Me Up”

The future of pop has arrived, and it sounds suspiciously like a dream you never want to leave. French DJ and producer powerhouse RetroVision has officially dropped his latest single, “Don’t Wake Me Up,” and it’s already sending shockwaves through the dance-pop community.

Known for his signature “Big Room Future House” sound, RetroVision is pivoting toward a high-energy, radio-ready pop anthem that retains the technical precision his fans adore while embracing a massive, melodic hook.

The Sound of “Don’t Wake Me Up”

“Don’t Wake Me Up” is a masterclass in modern production. It strikes a delicate balance between nostalgic synth-wave aesthetics and cutting-edge electronic dance music (EDM).

  • The Hook: A soaring, euphoric vocal line that captures the feeling of a hazy summer romance.

  • The Production: Crisp percussion meets fat, bouncy basslines—a staple of the RetroVision brand.

  • The Vibe: It’s the perfect “main stage” anthem that feels just as at home on a workout playlist or a late-night drive.

“I wanted to create something that felt timeless yet fresh,” RetroVision says of the track. “It’s about that moment when reality finally feels better than a dream, and you just want to stay in that headspace forever.”
