Dutch electronic duo Vannood is back with another electrifying release, "Kia Kaha," a powerful techno track that merges the traditional Maori culture of New Zealand with modern acid sounds and rolling basslines. Known for their hard-hitting beats and captivating storytelling through music, Vannood follows up their recent successes, "Out of Rotterdam" and "Industrial Revolution," with a tribal-inspired banger that’s already gaining attention from 1001 Tracklists.
Kia Kaha, meaning "Stay Strong" in Maori, blends ancient chants with the duo’s signature driving techno and psytrance elements, creating a hypnotic fusion of past and present. With its deep bass, acid-infused synths, and relentless energy, this track is a spiritual and sonic journey that pays homage to the Maori traditions while pushing the boundaries of techno.
To enhance the experience, Vannood has created seven stunning videos that dive into the cultural significance and story behind "Kia Kaha." These visuals, set to be released alongside the track with support from 1001 Tracklists, are designed to give listeners a full sensory experience, bringing the message of strength and resilience to a global audience.
Building on their growing reputation in the electronic music scene, Vannood continues to push the limits with their unique blend of techno and cultural storytelling.
