VanKost & Ekko - Call Of The Void (Original Mix) by LAPS Recordings published on 2022-07-07T19:42:00Z Van Kost and Ekko join forces for the second release on LAPS Recordings: „Call of the Void EP“ takes us on a journey into a black hole and brings together the best of what the two very different producers have to offer. The EP clearly has its roots in the Melodic Techno realm, but is strongly influenced by a large variety of electronic subgenres. Although the EP contains only 4 tracks, the duo managed to create a storyline that resembles that of a concept album while at the same time pushing the boundaries of what could be categorized under the term "Melodic Techno" with their exceptionally creative sound-design. „Singularity“, with its long, atmospheric intro, paints a first picture of the setting where the whole EP is going to take place. With its UK-Techno and Breakbeat influenced groove, it clearly stands out from the following tracks and takes the listener into a very young, chaotic universe where time and space still dont exist. With „Call of the Void“ the duo delivers us a dark, energetic Melodic Techno banger, that fits perfectly into the meta. The warm, wide synths and emotional melodies create an atmosphere that touches the hearts of everyone who has a crave for goosebumps. However, the track stays highly danceable and energetic until the end. The intense vibe created by the synths symbolizes the gravitation of a black hole, that no one can withstand. „Traveller“ is way more progressive than any other track on the EP and lets the listener drift through the strange world behind the event horizon. The focus clearly lays on the forceful bassline, that plays in a polymetric groove, and the detuned pads and arps enhance the strange vibe even more. „Event Horizon" maybe the most difficult of the four tracks to squeeze into one category. The trance-influenced bassline creates a bouncy, danceable vibe, the brass section and pads on the other hand are more melancholic and mellow, the shuffled hats, the 303s and the diffuse drones make it impossible to chose one emotion for the track that seems to be perfect at being everything at once.
