Audio Key Architects (A.K.A) is a Paris-based sibling production and DJ duo. Driven by a deep and abiding passion for electronic music and techno, their collaborative project is guided by a share vision of sharing what they love to create and listen to — with the world.
Over the past couple of months I’ve written about the following singles:
- “Ellipse,” a single which begins with a Flamenco-like introduction before quickly morphing into a eep house/techno banger that featured a soulful, wailing vocal sample, bursts of vocodered vocals, glistening synth oscillations and skittering beats paired with the duo’s uncannily cinematic sense of melody.
- “Fenrir,” a hard-hitting, aggressive techno banger built around tribal percussion, glistening synth arpeggios and a relentless motorik groove. Th result is a song that wouldn’t sound out of place at Electric Zoo — while bringing JOVM mainstays LutchamaK and Bubba Brothers to mind.
“Dune,” the Parisian sibling duo’s latest single is sleek, club friendly banger that alternates between taunt, uneasy tension and radiant, meditative beauty while prominently featuring glistening synth arpeggios paired with a relentless motorik groove. Much like its immediate predecessors “Dune” further cements A.K.A.’s uncanny penchant for cinematic melodicism.
