"WHERE I'M FROM": Belladonna and Cassian Build a Global Anthem

When Belladonna set out to create a track that captured the raw tension between melody and power, it led to a collaboration that would leave a serious mark. "WHERE I'M FROM," made alongside Grammy Award-winning producer Cassian and the rising artist Script, isn't just another release—it’s a breakout moment.

Cassian, known for his work across labels like Afterlife and Rose Avenue, brought serious depth to the project. With over 100 million streams worldwide and a history of playing festivals like Coachella and Hi Ibiza, he knows exactly how to shape a track that moves both underground floors and global stages.

Belladonna, coming off the release of his ATROPA EP, was already carving his sound into the scene. But "WHERE I'M FROM" changed the pace. Even before its official release on March 13, 2025, the track dominated Zamna Festival in Tulum—one of electronic music’s most influential hotspots. It didn’t just land well; it became the anthem of the festival, and has been rinsed by top names like Anyma, Tale of Us, Chris Avantgarde, CamelPhat, and Tiësto.

Now, weeks later, "WHERE I'M FROM" is still holding strong at #2 on Beatport’s Melodic House & Techno chart—a rare feat for a track that balances hypnotic storytelling with undeniable energy. It’s the kind of momentum you can’t manufacture.

"WHERE I'M FROM" blurs the lines between Belladonna’s deep-rooted hip-hop instincts and the atmospheric pull of melodic techno. The basslines hit with slow confidence, the synths stretch out like scenes from a half-remembered dream, and the vocals land like a memory you can't quite shake.
