3 Techno Tracks by Flaminia & VSK
Flaminia & VSK deliver three tracks of nimble and nuanced techno.
On the latest installment from Tommy Four Seven’s revitalized 47 imprint, artists Flaminia and VSK join forces for the first time in a highly dynamic three-track EP, fusing searing sound design and impeccable production with haunting vocal hooks.
“Elysian” opens the release with peak-time energy that opts for textural depth over sheer intensity. Its magnetic center is a piledriving four-to-the-floor kick and finely chiseled percussion set to the backdrop of Flaminia’s whisper. Her voice takes the lead on the B-side, becoming the clipped and chorus-like refrain on “Carpe Noctem”—a gnarled broken beat punctuated by distortion and psychedelic riffs. 47032 closes with “Tenebra,” a breakneck drum & bass-indebted cut that combines gated synths with Flaminia’s breathy vocals for a minimally constructed yet highly addictive dance track.
