‘Blooming’ begins as a beautifully atmospheric, ambient track. EMMI IIDA offers us spoken word vocals, guiding the listener on a meditative journey, before she breaks into her angelic singing voice over an unusual driving beat as she sings about following one’s own inner vision and intuition. Robot Koch keeps EMMI’s vocal line, modulating the sound of her voice with subtle trippy effects and filters over a mesmeric synth instrumental replete with vocal samples of EMMI’s. His reimagination of the track is ethereal and soothing, showcasing his prowess as a producer.
