“Afraid Of The Dark” is an alluring melodic techno groove that fuses shadowy mystique with an inviting sense of comfort. The engrossing vocal topline acts as a beacon of light that glows through the shadowy, atmospheric textures and moody pads. Propulsive basslines and tension-building leads drive the track forward while precision percussion enhances the irresistible groove. The confident and sultry vocal tones sweep listeners away as the ever-evolving backing creates a progressive, uplifting air that contrasts the dark sonics sprinkled throughout. “Afraid Of The Dark” is a mainstage-ready melodic techno anthem that masters the art of dichotomy.
Joining forces with singer-songwriter Luxtides—a highly sought-after talent previously working alongside Trivecta, Manila Killa, Crystal Skies, Whales, Spag Heddy, and more—the two unite for the pulse-raising “Chemicals.” The impassioned vocals rouse the senses and serve as a goosebump-inducing primer for what lies ahead. The minimal introduction swells as rave-ready synths drift into focus before exploding into a chest-pumping and hypnotic outpour of driving techno. Slamming kicks are layered atop pulsing basslines and intense leads, coming together to create an addictive peak-time energy. Ghostly vocal chops create a haunting aesthetic that deepens the emotional pull without sacrificing the intensity. “Chemicals” is a rollercoaster of emotion and energy, building and releasing tension with a masterful command. The stripped-down final drop offers a breathtakingly minimal impact before the ravey lead returns to bring the track to its epic climax.
Tavatli’s ‘Afraid Of The Dark’ EP mixes addictive vocals with punchy techno production, resulting in a sound that is set to take over from festivals and clubs to playlists, and everything in between.
“‘Afraid of the Dark’ and ‘Chemicals’ are both songs that I believe define my sound and passion for electronic music. With ‘Afraid Of The Dark’ being my melodic side and ‘Chemicals’ being my harder side, this EP demonstrates the future of what’s to come. I’m very honored to be releasing on NIGHTMODE as the label has been very influential to me over the years.”—Tavatli
