A shapeshifting, retro-futuristic effort from the NYC vapor-house debutante
The multifaceted New York City artist Jordan Stern has announced her debut album under her Vitesse X moniker, and has also shared the first single from the project, the smoldering and chameleonic anthem “Repress Reprise.”
Utilizing a sonic palette that traverses house, techno, vaporwave, chillwave and more, “Repress Reprise” is a shapeshifting debut track packed with whirring synths and glitchy beats that provide the buoyant tapestry upon which Stern’s soothing vocals come to titanic life. The track floats in breathy, ethereal ways while remaining propulsive and dancey from start to finish. It conjures meditative feelings of blissful solitude as all the track’s layers snowball and coalesce in perfect harmony. It’s a perfect debut single from Vitesse X that leaves us pining for the album, which is set to arrive this summer. You can give it a spin and watch the mesmerizing visualizer (by AJAM) below.
