With its emotive vocals and uplifting melodies, ‘Protected’ sets the stage for a powerful year ahead, further solidifying Nora En Pure’s place at the forefront of melodic house

Kicking off 2025 with fresh energy, Swiss-South African artist Nora En Pure has released her highly anticipated first single of the year, Protected, via Enormous Tunes. A standout track already featured in her live sets, Protected has quickly won over audiences, establishing itself as a fan favorite. This stunning new release is a perfect reflection of Nora En Pure’s signature sound — a seamless fusion of emotional depth, uplifting energy, and organic textures. Whether at home or on the dancefloor, Protected captivates with its lush melodies, atmospheric charm, and an immersive vibe that resonates deeply with listeners.

Following the massive success of her previous single, Polar Lights, Protected serves as an electrifying follow-up, showcasing Nora’s ever-evolving musicality. At the heart of the track lies the evocative vocal performance of Richard Walters, whose voice imbues the song with a raw, emotional intensity. Walters’ delivery effortlessly soars above the vibrant keys, shimmering synths, and rich basslines, creating an emotive experience that feels both introspective and expansive. His vocals don’t simply accompany the music — they drive it, transforming the track into a heartfelt exploration of feeling and hope.

In a personal reflection on Instagram, Nora shared how the song addresses loneliness and the need for real human connection in a world increasingly isolated by digital communication. She also expressed gratitude to her fans and Richard Walters, whose vocals moved her deeply during the creative process.
