He has since released 7 genre-bending singles, namely Cuba-Cuba, Santai Sabtu, Sunday Blues, Say My Name, Idowan and Gila Kapas, all of which are instantly recognisable as Dowandofla tunes.

It has never been a hassle as his job was his hobby and his hobby his passion. Darryl composes and writes his own songs. Although he loves the 80s and 90s, slow rock and dances to old skool hip hop, the majority of his work caters to popular music, encompassing a large variety of genres. With the ongoing passion he carries, he wishes to pursue a career in music. Music that defines him as a person but does its magic by inspiring others. Follow him: https://www.instagram.com/darryl_dt/
