Many could have seen that there was a little bit of an evolution in Ukrainian producer VovKING’s work in recent times. It’s not terribly stunning, as these artists who’re nonetheless concerned within the Ukraine battle would have a unique perspective after almost two years of conflict. The newly minted Involver, nevertheless, was impressed to overtake his model and his sound due to a dream.
The story behind my new alias is bit bizarre however cool. I had a dream one evening the place I spoke with my good friend who handed away 4 years in the past from most cancers. He advised me to start out every thing from scratch and that “You might be Involver,” proper earlier than I wakened. I spent two or 3 months fascinated about this sometimes and the determined that this was simply means too cool. That good friend in my dream made a huge impact on my music style again within the days and music was the muse of our friendship, so even now we’re nonetheless related.
After all I’ve new imaginative and prescient now on music and the business, which I’ll apply to the brand new Involver challenge. Sadly there are a great deal of restrictions now as a result of the conflict, so I cant reveal this imaginative and prescient to the total extent, however the time will come.
It sounds from these phrases as if this variation is not only a remaking of picture, however a complete overhaul of soul for the newly minted Involver, and that followers ought to prepare for some fairly profound insights by his music. To start this journey, his first single underneath this moniker, “The Feeling” that includes vocalist Aleva Mae, appears to be on the vertex of each the shifts within the artist’s sound and his id. A wedding of dancefloor 4×4 and minimal neuro through the snares, the observe is an ode to the dancefloor itself, possible a long-lost idea in Involver’s native Ukraine.
Involver and Aleva Mae actually set forth to seize that elusive feeling all ravers are acquainted with, when that good second hits on the dancefloor the place every thing is united and deeply felt by everybody. They do that by telling the story of the rave in components, with the intro and the warmup beat. The 4×4 vacillates seamlessly between a straight and a breakbeat, exhibiting how shut they really are, whereas snippets of the principle melody work to foreshadow the crescendo of the music. Equally, Aleva Mae’s lyrics appear to be trying to find “some type of feeling,” however as the total observe drops after the break, the verse expands and she or he’s now not “in search of” the sensation, however holdings it because the music crashes across the viewers. It’s visceral and goosebump-inducing, this drop, and anybody who’s had an actual rave expertise might be picturing that second and that “feeling” as “The Feeling” hits its peak.
“The Feeling” was definitely the best selection for a observe to announce Involver’s new involvement within the scene. Heavy, heady and filled with rave nostalgia, it’s a name to everybody listening to carry that feeling for individuals who could not have the ability to expertise stay throughout the present occasions. It’s a portends of hope as properly, as a result of as everyone knows, “The Feeling” will all the time be there for us. Involver clearly made this music for himself, his good friend and people who are in these struggles within the Ukraine and past. It’s a stupendous reminder and a stupendous new starting.
