Following the release of two singles, New York based, multi-talented Chinese American DJ and producer HELANG has unveiled her ‘Lovers of the Unknown’ EP, released on May 17th via her independent imprint Dauntless Records.
Ahead of the project’s ultimate release, the EP’s two preceding singles “Wise Devil” and “No One” are joined by the hard-hitting addition“Black Angel” to curate a trio of techno tracks that exemplify HELANG’s well-rounded, burgeoning signature sound. As a body of work, the triplet comprising ‘Lovers of the Unknown’ demonstrates how Helang expertly weaves together the common threads between varying styles of techno fueled dance music.
“Black Angel’s” piercing acid influences drive a sharp and sultry track fueled by a brooding bassline that seethes with deep, rhythmic poise across the track’s measures. The capstone of the EP joins the indie-dance inspired lead single “Wise Devil”, and slick, cheeky follow-up, “No One”.
The name of this song and the lyrics in it speak for themselves. Life is about finding comfort in chaos and channeling our inner demons by redirecting them into something positive. As an artist I find inspiration in the good and bad, the beauty and also pain- in the end of the day, I still will be unapologetically me. “Black Angel” tops off the EP by delivering a boundary-pushing sonic soundscape to my audience.
