Watch Velvet Velour’s Sultry Neon-Soaked Video for “Rococo”

The new EP, Rococo, by Velvet Velour is a neon-soaked collection of songs that evoke intense emotion. In the vein of today’s synth superstars with high production and a dark disco beat, the UK-based Valeria Valuskaya understands the chemistry of a dance track. This is especially apparent with the lead single, “Rococo.” With her unique jazz-inspired vocals, Valuskaya’s voice melts over the sultry melody, which makes for a moody, intense track. As part of the EP, “Rococo” is just one chapter in the story Velvet Velour spins in her romantic–yet dangerous—web of synthesized intricacies.

“Rococo”‘s music video is a kaleidoscope of cotton candy neon flavors that Valuskaya art-directed and produced herself. Watch the artist run through shadowy halls and dance admidst the foggy spotlight below:

The Rococo EP will include ten remixes made by electronic producers such as Alen Skanner, St. Theodore, DJ Wedding, Skelesys, and others at the end of September.
