ONYVAA makes her debut on Factory 93 Records with the raw, groove-laden ‘State of Flow / Between Worlds’ two-track EP.
Operating out of Paris, ONYVAA is a California native carving out her own corner within the underground space. Between fabricating rich textures from her field recordings to her impeccable modular live sets—with high-profile sets at EDC Las Vegas, Tomorrowland, fabric, Circoloco, Amnesia and Hï Ibiza—experimentation has become a calling card for the techno producer. She’s continually refining and evolving her craft, titrating elements of trance and house music that permeate through her penchant for Detroit techno. Already championed by the likes of Charlotte de Witte, Richie Hawtin, Carl Cox and Laurent Garnier, the list of endorsements speaks for itself. For her debut appearance on the Factory 93 imprint, ONYVAA leans into her genre-fluid persuasions via her double-sided offering, ‘State of Flow / Between Worlds.’
The lead cut “State of Flow” is a deep, propulsive roller engineered for afterhour hypnosis. Sharp percussive loops and rubbery low-end bleed into a hardgroove-infused rhythm, dotted by crisp cowbell hits and detuned stabs that blend with menacing acid lines. Rounding out the B-Side is “Between Worlds,” exploring a more ethereal trance space. Trippy and spacious in the right measures, the track cycles through euphonious vocalizations, shimmery two-note phrases, bright bongo fills, and squelchy oscillators that thread intensity into its euphoric core.
Touching on the duality that inspired her new release, ONYVAA says, “‘State of Flow’ and ‘Between Worlds’ reflect the shift happening in my sound right now. I’ve been exploring the space where contrasts meet, blending the hypnotic energy of techno with more organic, housier elements that feel alive and human. I love playing with opposites and finding harmony in unexpected places. These tracks hold the emotional shift I’ve been feeling, a pull toward music that moves both the body and something deeper.”
With her double-sided debut on the burgeoning Factory 93 imprint, ONYVAA reinforces her reputation for locking into a sharper, more expansive vision of techno. Deeply intuitive and physical, ‘State of Flow / Between Worlds’ not only marks a paradigm shift happening within the underground but signals to a chapter of what comes next.
ONYVAA's new double-sided single 'State of Flow / Between Worlds' is available on all platforms via Factory 93 Records.
