Viking
Lead song âVikingâ features 8Kays working with Australian-born, Germany-based vocalist Kyle Pearce, whose multi-platinum success includes noteworthy partnerships with industry heavyweights Vintage Culture, Tube & Berger, and Klangkarussell. With Pearceâs dreamy voice flowing naturally through 8Kaysâ carefully created audio environment, the cooperation turns out to be the ideal marriage of skills.
The production of the music highlights 8Kaysâ trademark meticulously:
A thunderous, galloping rhythm that drives the narrative forward Expansive cosmic atmospherics that create a sense of space and wonder Deep, growling bassline pulses that provide a solid foundation Crystalline synth leads that build to euphoric peak-time moments Magma
As a striking counterpoint, the B-side âMagmaâ shows 8Kaysâ ability to create gripping instrumental narratives. The melodic techno trip consists of the following:
Dark, propulsive drum patterns that establish a hypnotic groove Pulsating bass elements that create forward momentum Detuned melodic elements that add tension and release Acidic touches and molten synthesizer work that enhance the trackâs volcanic theme Speaking on the album, 8Kays explains the personal connection to these works:
8Kays
Real expression and aural experimentation are fundamental values of 8Kaysâ creative approach. Her compositions establish a special place where technical mastery meets emotional depth to produce music that appeals on the dancefloor as well as on a deeper, more intimate level. Every release provides a glimpse into her inner realm, where strong emotional narratives and intricate sound design live side by side.
This latest CD on Interstellar Recordings marks another major turning point in 8Kaysâ rising career as she keeps stretching the boundaries of melodic techno. The âViking / Magmaâ double single not only shows her present ability but also suggests the fascinating opportunities this gifted musician has ahead.
