Bringing fresh energy to the new year, Swiss-South African artist Nora En Pure unveils her first single of 2025, Protected, via Enormous Tunes. Already a highlight in her sets, Protected has quickly earned its place as a crowd favourite. With its seamless blend of emotional depth and energy, Protected fully embodies Nora En Pure’s distinct sound palette — lush melodies, organic textures, uplifting vocals and a captivating atmosphere that resonates just as much at home as it does in the club.
Building on the immense success of her previous single Polar Lights, Protected delivers an electrifying and dynamic follow-up. At its core, Richard Walters’ evocative vocal performance shines brilliantly, infused with raw emotion and hopeful lyricism. His voice, rich with sincerity and depth, effortlessly ascends and soars above the track’s vibrant keys, shimmering synths, and resonant basslines. Walters’ vocals don’t just accompany the music — they lead it, transforming the track into a vessel of pure feeling and introspection. This harmonious blend creates an atmosphere that embodies both security and natural beauty, while the driving energy ensures it resonates as powerfully on the dancefloor as it does in quieter, reflective moments.
