Samantha Togni presents a hard-hitting new EP on Brvtalist Sound Recordings, the in-house label of Berlin-based, globally renowned platform, brand and DJ, The Brvtalist. Accompanied by a biting remix from rising star Valerie Ace, the project also showcases futuristic 3D visuals
created by visual artist Jose Vigers.
The tracks encompass precious elements characteristic of Samantha's work, including gritty basslines, raw vocal stabs, acid lines, and roaring kicks. Samantha describes the EP, stating,"While writing these tracks, I experienced a constant surge of ambivalent emotions within
me—spooky yet uplifting, creepy yet joyful, shadowy yet ecstatic. Confessions Of A Mask unveils a hidden meaning and a distorted perspective on a world driven by machines, urging us to redefine our perception of emotions."
Originally from Italy and now based in London, Samantha Togni has become a central figure in the city's underground scene. Samantha is also the founder of Boudica, a platform that aims to give visibility to trans+, non-binary, and female individuals in music. Samantha's
sound is constantly evolving, with recent releases on leading labels such as Voxnox, Noise Manifesto, and Stay Up Forever.
The EP kicks off with "Paranoia Will Destroy Ya," immersing the listener in an abyss of hypnotic grooves and vocal stabs that demand attention. Following that, "Confessions Of A Mask" encapsulates the essence of the project with its robotic and futuristic ambiance. The track begins with a storm of bass stabs that swiftly transform into a restless march.
"Ready To Be Unplugged" races forward on the energetic beat of pounding drums, eventually exploding into an explosive acid line. The bouncy vocals guarantee a full-blown action on the dance floor. Valerie Ace masterfully reimagines "Confessions Of A Mask," maintaining the essence of the song while introducing tense rhythms and an air of
mystery—hallmarks of the artist.
