French vocalist, producer and composer Oklou releases her debut album choke enough via True Panther/Because. Oklou’s debut album was developed with co-producers Casey MQ, Danny L Harle and A. G. Cook. The album is a reflection on the subconscious and conscious demands of an artistic psychology, as well as existing and creating in a brief and transient life. choke enough is filled with warm production, pairing ambient sounds with minimal club rhythms, delicate synthesizer arpeggios and found sound samples.
Speaking on the debut album Oklou shares, “I see it as built on a permanent conversation between a life anchored in reality and another in fantasy. I can’t imagine a life without daydreaming, without spending time appreciating beauty, but I need to be anchored to the ground to continue paying attention to what’s happening around me.”
