ANNA Enchants Spirits with New EP on Afterlife

Raven Wright
ANNA

Techno sensation ANNA returns with Journey To The Underworld, a three-track EP on Afterlife that will soothe your mind, body, and soul.


One of the best things to happen for techno is ANNA. When you listen to her captivating sounds they will quickly put you in a trance and help you lose yourself from everyday stresses. She’s truly a gift to dance music and her discography includes stellar tunes like “Forever Ravers,” “Dimensions,” and her stunning remix of Jon Hopkins’ “Singularity.” And she’s starting 2022 on a dominant note with the release of her new three-track EP, Journey To The Underworld, via Afterlife.

For ANNA, this brilliant piece of art is something fresh from the techno heavyweight that stemmed from her experience over the past few years where she made music without the pressure of needing it to make an impact on the dancefloor. Instead, she focused on experimenting with new sounds and styles, which culminated in the three tracks found on Journey To The Underworld.

“This process opened me up to parts of myself that I didn’t know I had. I created some ambient music, I also have been studying sound healing and this helped me to use frequencies more consciously and for specific purposes,” ANNA said. “I have learned how to combine frequencies, music, and intention to induce states of expansion, love, joy, contemplation, and this gave a whole new purpose to my work. This whole process got me through these very difficult times.”

The adventure begins with “Journey To The Underworld,” a dark tune that’s endearing and spellbinding. Compared to the other tracks, this one is the heaviest song on the EP, and ANNA excels at finding the proper mix between the relentless grittiness of techno and ambient sounds. “Surrender” will send chills down your spine, especially when the bass kicks in, and “Dissolution” is the hidden gem that lives will surely live on repeat for her fans. You can hear the influence of sound healing throughout the entire EP, which plays a vital role in creating a wholesome experience that’s soothing and comforting.

ANNA’s willingness to experiment and expand the possibilities of her craft continues to make her stand tall in the techno scene. She’s made something meaningful and impactful on Journey To The Underworld and showed us that there’s more to techno than club bangers. Immerse yourself into these soundscapes from ANNA by listening on Spotify or your preferred platform today.

⁠
He returns with his brand new Memories EP, which not only harkens back to the start of his career but serves as a thank-you to his fans. “I got super burnt out trying to write more poppy-sounding stuff, and the melodic scene is so over-saturated now that I just wanted to write how I felt and what I wanted,” he said. “I had the most fun writing instrumental music my whole career, so I decided to dive back in and have a trip down memory lane.“ 🎶⁠

  • SHOW REVIEW:⁠
Millions of people across the globe recently ushered in a fresh Lunar New Year. For those that celebrate, 2023 is the year of the rabbit, which represents peace, self-reflection, and prosperity. And in honor of this celebration, Pulse Events produced two eventful nights at @avantgardnerbk, featuring a roster of Asian artists and two dance music titans – @Gryffin and @KSHMR. 🪅🎶⁠
⁠
The renowned venue displayed a 360 photo booth with a Lunar New Year backdrop for attendees, and a constellation of red lanterns suspended throughout the space with a huge chandelier right in the center of the Great Hall – and our team was there to witness the Lunar New Year magic. 💫⁠

  • ALBUM REVIEW: 💿️⁠
There are few artists in the melodic house and techno realm more in demand than @marshmusician at the moment. His latest LP to land on @Anjunadeep, Endless, is a glimpse of what the last few years of staying busy have meant to the producer, yet also act as a snapshot of his past as he takes his deepest influences and brings them into the present. This album is the culmination of both the artistry that’s made him a staple of the Anjuna roster over the past few years and the philosophical questions that arise from long journeys. 🛣️🎶⁠
⁠
"I’ve written this entire album on the move, writing from so many different homes. On a deeper, more spiritual level, this has led me to question, what is truly home, and will we experience home after this life?" -Marsh⁠
