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.
Their second single “Ellipse” begins with a Flamenco-like introduction before quickly morphing into a deep house/techno banger featuring a soulful wailing vocal sample, a burst of vocodered vocals, glistening synth oscillations and skittering beats paired with the duo’s uncannily cinematic sense of melody. The result is a song that reminds me a bit of Snap!‘s “Rhythm is a Dancer” and JOVM mainstay LutchamaK — within an expansive song structure.
