Known for his project <em>Son of Uri,<\/em> and his collaboration with <a href=\"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/tag\/muzi\/?_per_page=17\">Muzi<\/a>, Dios has teased his forthcoming EP, slated for an October 8 release. Entitled <em>Panorama Route EP<\/em>, the project will be composed of three songs. \u201c<em>This EP was not only inspired by my trials and tribulations of the past but was also inspired by the Panorama Route itself, in Mpumalanga, South Africa<\/em>,\u201d Espacio Dios tells us. \u201c<em>Viewing the multiple landscapes on the Route evoked a journey to self-acceptance and finding peace. Each location on the Panorama Route, from the Bourke&#8217;s Luck Potholes to The Three Rondavels, had eroded years after and left behind the beauty we see now. The beautiful chaos of the natural attractions connects to the bittersweet feeling of the EP<\/em>.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the new project, the artist has released the lead single \u201cInsecure,\u201d featuring vocals from newcomers James Deacon and Fettiboy Jim and accompanied by visuals directed by Clout Killed The Kids, Muzi and Dios\u2019 production collective. The video gives visual representation to the insecurities evoked in the lyrics, which plague him in the dark, away from the gaze of the outside world. &#8220;<em>I am so excited about this video<\/em>,\u201d he says. \u201c<em>The song directly translates to the visual narrative where my insecurities are personified and have initial control. I try to run away from them but eventually embrace and make peace with them \u2013 you see me dancing with them in the video<\/em>.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <em><em>Panorama Route EP<\/em> <\/em>will be available on October 8.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to &#8220;Insecure&#8221; in our Songs of the Week playlist on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/spoti.fi\/2Pz0eyg\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/30zVbUA\" target=\"_blank\">Deezer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/espacio-dios-panorama-route-1010x1010.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87597\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The video arrives ahead of the Panorama Route EP, the third project from the alternative South African artist.
