Toronto’s own Jon Vinyl delivers a soulful masterclass in love and connection with his first 2025 release, “Dopamine.”

Jon Vinyl is yet another gem from Toronto’s rich music scene—an R&B artist with an unmistakably old soul. While only in his mid-20s, Jon’s music showcases a level of depth and maturity that sets him apart. His catalog is filled with soulful moments, thoughtful lyrics, velvety vocals, and clean, captivating production.

Though he’s remained quiet for most of 2025, Jon Vinyl has officially broken the silence with his first single of the year: “Dopamine.” And it hits all the right notes.

In “Dopamine,” Jon showers praise on his woman, highlighting her beauty, spirit, and the magnetic pull she has on him. He promises to meet her where she is emotionally and physically, working to build a deep connection that goes beyond surface-level love. The track floats over a smooth R&B instrumental with hints of funk and an irresistible groove, while Jon’s buttery vocals seal the deal.

If you’re curating a slow jam playlist, don’t think twice—”Dopamine” deserves a spot.
