Dirt Sense is the second studio album by South African recording artist Ashton Nyte, frontman for the Gothic Rock band The Awakening. Described as "stripped down, minimalist, under-produced, almost dirty",[1] and "a powerful album with strong tunes and hard-hitting lyrics" [2] the album contains some of the artist's "most personal"[3] songs. A video was produced for the single Window and aired throughout South African music television.[4]

In 2005 Dirt Sense was re-released as a second edition, remixed and mastered with a bonus CD featuring, among others, Nyte's interpretation of Elvis's "Fever."
