ALICIA DC releases “IDM,” an upbeat introvert anthem that builds anticipation for her debut album WANNA KISS and highlights her honest, genre-blending pop sound.
Singaporean dance-pop artist ALICIA DC releases her new single “IDM,” the second preview of her upcoming debut album WANNA KISS, arriving in late May.
The track draws inspiration from introversion and the quiet courage it takes to open up. Through playful storytelling, ALICIA DC reflects on moments when support from friends makes connection feel possible.
She first developed the concept during a studio session with collaborators. When invited to lunch, she responded with hesitation, saying she might join. That small moment sparked the song’s theme of gradual emotional openness. As a result, “IDM” captures the tension between self-doubt and comfort found in trusted company.
Despite its reflective message, the track moves with upbeat energy. Bright production encourages listeners to relax, dance, and enjoy a lighter mood. Furthermore, the song balances honesty with optimism, offering a gentle reminder that growth often begins in simple interactions.
Building Toward WANNA KISS
“IDM” continues ALICIA DC’s artistic journey as she prepares to release her first full-length album. The project follows her debut EP Maybe (2022) and later singles that highlight her evolving sound. In addition, her work blends accessible pop melodies with direct and personal lyricism. This approach allows her music to feel both relatable and expressive.
As a singer-songwriter and producer, ALICIA DC explores multiple styles. Her catalog ranges from acoustic ballads to trap-influenced pop. Moreover, collaborations with artists such as Gabba, CERATONE, and June Pan reflect her openness to creative exchange. She also represented Singapore at the 2025 AXEAN Festival, where emerging talents from across Southeast Asia gathered to share new music.
With “IDM,” ALICIA DC expands anticipation for WANNA KISS. The single highlights her ability to translate everyday experiences into engaging pop moments. She continues shaping a sound that values sincerity, rhythm, and emotional connection.
