On 23 February 2014, Dario G's single "We Got Music" was released. The song featured Shirley Bassey and got its first play on BBC Radio 2 on the Paul O'Grady show.

In September 2018, Dario G released "Cry". Writing for Vents Magazine, the music journalist R G Formeta described the single as having a "catchy melody, infectious rhythm[s], uplifting vocals and a unique, timeless energy in a modern sounding production." In an interview for the same article, Dario G said “The principle idea took under an hour. I knew I was onto something, so I waited patiently for other ideas to fall into my lap over a few weeks to craft it into what you now hear. The title “Cry” was something that I felt summed up the emotion of listening back to what I'd created. It's a powerful and euphoric “Cry” rather than a sad one. I was picturing people dancing and being lifted by the soaring soprano vocals and strings, while the “Higher” chant is there to take the euphoria to an even higher level.”[1]
