Forest Ritual

Forest Ritual

ROOM048 / BLANKA Forest Rituals Through an intimate exploration of her voice, BLANKA returns to Room Trax with a 7-track journey that merges dancefloor intent with ethereal sensibilities and an expansive sense of space. We begin with ‘Conjuro’, an ambient prelude that unfolds like a slow incantation, where textures appear like ghosts. Tactile, yet distant. ‘Do You’ follows with a stripped-back and minimal groove, marked by coiling, metallic details, and a tight rhythmic skeleton. The heart of the EP, ‘Forest Ritual’, begins with a lullaby-like chant—sweet, inviting, almost sacred. Slowly, a distorted bassline surfaces, introducing tension without breaking the spell—a moment of contrast where softness meets weight. With ‘In the Shadows’, BLANKA steps fully into dancefloor mode. Lean and bleepy, it delivers functionality while retaining a sense of depth. ‘Somebody’ shifts the energy into a sunlit morning, built around a yearning vocal: “I just need somebody”—one for the deep hours. That warmth continues into ‘Texting to You’, a groove-centric meditation with a gentle, organic flow. And finally, Why Are You Here closes the album with a whispered question, dreamy and slow-burning. With Forest Rituals, BLANKA bridges club functionality and emotional depth—an experience that unfolds as intimately as it moves.
