Danya Vodovoz’s latest single, „F to K“, features the suave vocal melodies of Miami-born, German-based singer Dennis LeGree. „F to K“ is a slight detour from Danya’s usual electronic sonic landscape, showcasing his own diverse taste in this warmer, modern-bluesy offering.

The Dealer
This 80s rock and new-wave-inspired song revolves around the idea of The Dealer as a symbolic anti-hero and shadowy figure of our time. A symbol of fear, dependence, and ruin as well as mystery and even sanctity. Shot entirely in rural Australia, the video features a dark, mysterious atmosphere. The young director Braden McDonald chose foggy streets and gloomy fields late at night to conjure a ghostly feeling. Contrasting light, darkness, and smoke throughout the clip to compound a sense of mystery and amplify the Lynchian, noir-esque imagery through which the protagonist (Narelle Collins) is constantly driven while taking part in a deal that eventually goes south. The locations proved challenging to shoot on at times, with weather conditions and limited accessibility during lockdown, but ultimately produced an intense and partly claustrophobic feeling that complements the essence of the song.

El Topo
The song, „El Topo“, is partially inspired by the films of David Lynch and Alejandro Jodorowsky. Danya Vodovoz used Jodorowsky’s film „El Topo“, for the name of the song, since he could imagine his music as an imaginary soundtrack of this nearly forgotten masterpiece. The unusual structure and rhythm of the track were developed by jamming to a vinyl record playing the rhythmic noise of the lead out groove, in combination with an old guitar loop from an eight-track tape recorder. This all happened spontaneously after a night of partying at Danya’s studio. Director’s note (Juan Garnica): „The story takes on many roles and it is intended to not be understood easily. In the video, we wanted to show a little bit of irony that a rather newer-looking vehicle would break down in the middle of nowhere. As she begins walking, she finds a pair of reading glasses. The glasses symbolize that she needs to clearly see what lies ahead of her and she needs to see the reason why she’s in the middle of nowhere for no specific reason. She sees a man holding the same pair of reading glasses nodding his head as if to say, “Yes, you are seeing me.” She continues walking and finds a plastic horse, the horse symbolizes her mobility through the desert. As she continues hiking, she finds a book, and open it to the poem that tells her that she’s been home all along.

Generating my memory
One of my former projects called „Anthrazit“
Anthrazit is a multi talent. He is a painter, a full blood musician, a person who develops concepts and likes to disguise himself, taking on other personalities.
His music is so colourful that it paints our black and while imaginations with bright colours.
„Synthetic Times“ is a romantic tale of a robot who expresses his feelings through a vocoder voice. Voiced operational sequences meet an electro feeling which turns into disco or rather Italy disco. It is a sexy affair which Anthrazit is executing here… a bit of an adventure… timeless… detached from trends… Reiley Reinhold
