Prolific producer Robot Koch is set to share a remix of EMMI IIDA’s single, ‘Blooming’ which will be released on the 2nd of August via EFG Records.

The original song was written by EMMI IIDA and co-written and produced by Jessica Sharman. Berlin-born and Los Angeles-based Robot Koch is a Platinum and Gold accredited producer. He has done official remixes for the likes of Max Richter, Rammstein, Christian Löffler, and Adriatique, and collaborated with conductor and Grammy Award Nominee Kristjan Järvi, along with the Nordic Pulse Orchestra.

EMMI IIDA is an internationally recognised Finnish visual artist, holistic interior architect & musician currently based in the countryside of Southern Finland. The multi-faceted artist has hosted solo art exhibitions around the world, from Barcelona to Los Angeles. Seeking to translate her artistic prowess into her music she founded her own company EFG Productions, as well as EFG Records, a record label focusing on drawing out holistic wellbeing with healing frequencies. 

‘Blooming’ begins as a beautifully atmospheric, ambient track. EMMI IIDA offers us spoken word vocals, guiding the listener on a meditative journey, before she breaks into her angelic singing voice over an unusual driving beat as she sings about following one’s own inner vision and intuition. Robot Koch keeps EMMI’s vocal line, modulating the sound of her voice with subtle trippy effects and filters over a mesmeric synth instrumental replete with vocal samples of EMMI’s. His reimagination of the track is ethereal and soothing, showcasing his prowess as a producer. 

Robot Koch shared, “I enjoyed making this remix for Emmi. I only used the vocals from the original track, I felt like they needed a lot of space around them. So I went for an introspective, atmospheric, and stripped-down composition, based on the feeling the words evoked in me.”
