‘Femmeland” titled “Crooked”. After releasing her debut LP Fragments in 2021, VASSIŁINA is about to unleash her most awaited album, Femmeland. With its latest release, VASSIŁINA explores themes of reflection, acceptance, and the transforming power of embracing one’s true self through a musical study that goes beyond pop and electronic music borders. A series of thirteen electronic dark-pop compositions, Femmeland is a new chapter in VASSIŁINA’s journey of self-healing, saying goodbye to a former existence in London, and coming to terms with who she is.
The album is a powerful emotional journey that explores the nuances of mental health, long-term sickness, bereavement, and traumatic experiences while discovering love and trust in other people. It is a powerful experience that resonates with the strength gained in accepting one’s actual self and the acceptance of inner voices. The song starts with an intense feedback noise and a trip-hop and slow-tempo ambiance, and it transitions to a synthpop anthem filled with maximalist elements in production and a strong essence of reverbed soundscapes. It is deeply rooted in pop-structure songwriting with a lot of avant-garde elements and lyrical themes. The influences of the two cities can be heard in the sound in the subconscious vibe that the song has. Overall, it is always nice seeing talented artists from my city thriving and building a wider audience filled with fresh ideas and good artistic vision and this single is a very dynamic introduction to what is to come.
