Despite the thoughtful simplicity of their album artwork, VLURE’s debut EP Euphoria is anything but simplistic. Bringing heart and darkness to the dancefloor, they’ve created an EP that transforms dance music from purely celebratory to a means of catharsis.
The band shared: This EP is our coming of age story. A snapshot of the beginning. A story of being young and working endless days dreaming of something more. It’s for our loved ones, our friends and everyone who has lifted us up to where we are now. Dance hard to it, lose yourself in it, and hold those close to you closer. Our introduction. It is yours now. Euphoria baby, to the skies.
Epic in the true sense of the word, Euphoria has larger than life instrumentals, impassioned vocals, and encompasses a full dynamic range of sound and emotion. With every song, the band has something to fight for — be that love, the will to live fully, to lose themselves in the music, they are always pursuing something greater and outside of themselves. Wholly originally, their industrial, dance combination Coming to the title track at the end of the EP feels as if you made it through the night until dawn and are celebrating as the sunrises.
