AiramFM x Dareen Tap into the Dark Pulse of Emotion in “Am I Broken”

By FusioNostalgia

At just 26 years old, Danish singer-songwriter AiramFM has crafted a sound that feels both ethereal and deeply personal, blending dreamy alt-pop with emotional vulnerability. Her music is rooted in a childhood surrounded by song, poetry, and creativity, where her passion for expression blossomed even before she could speak. The profound loss of her mother to cancer at age 23 became a turning point, pushing AiramFM to channel her grief and pain into music as a form of healing. Since then, she has released 20 singles, each one an intimate story told through her haunting vocals and authentic lyrics. Her latest single, “Am I Broken,” is a powerful collaboration with rising alternative RnB artist Dareen, bringing together two distinct voices and backgrounds into one melancholic yet captivating track.

Dareen, currently based in Greece, brings a different but complementary energy to the song. Inspired by early 2000s pop icons like Britney Spears, as well as the darker, emotional tones of Evanescence, Tatu, and The Weeknd, she merges alternative RnB with a nostalgic feel that perfectly matches AiramFM’s alt-pop style. The new single “Am I Broken” explores the paradox of pain—how it can feel like the only thing that truly makes you feel alive, prompting you to rewind and relive those dark moments despite the hurt they bring. It’s a vulnerable yet honest reflection on the complicated relationship we have with our own struggles.

The collaboration was made possible thanks to social media connections and a shared passion for supporting female artists. AiramFM founded a community called “Hymn of The Goddess” to uplift upcoming female musicians, which caught Dareen’s attention and inspired her to start a podcast within the group. Their paths crossed when AiramFM appeared as a guest, sparking a creative connection that led to this musical partnership. The production behind “Am I Broken” features a beat crafted by DN and a mix by Lewis Kelly, adding layers of depth and atmosphere that enhance the song’s emotional core.

Together, AiramFM and Dareen have created more than just a track—they’ve built a bridge between two artists from different parts of the world who share a commitment to raw, honest storytelling through music. “Am I Broken” is a hauntingly beautiful reminder that sometimes pain is part of the journey, and through that pain, music becomes the voice that helps us heal and feel alive again.
