AUNCE’s new single “Beep Beep” is a sonic journey that captivates from the moment you press play. Though it’s only three minutes long, its haunting atmosphere, richly textured vocals and polished production make it feel expansive and long. As much as it’s a combination of aggressive rhythms, visceral synths, and ghostly soundscapes, the track also presents the musical world created by AUNCE.
The song’s themes are as bold as its sound, delving into the complexities of self-sexualization and self-objectification on social media. With thought-provoking lyrics, AUNCE explores whether these practices genuinely empower or confine us, raising questions about the impact of online attention economies on art, bodies and minds.
As the first release from her upcoming seven-track EP, this track showcases AUNCE’s ability to straddle genres, mixing elements of pop and electronica with a cinematic flair. Her commitment to exploring sound’s emotional and conceptual depths is evident throughout. Honestly, this track was challenging, creative, and meaningful. AUNCE has a good sense of how to combine the eerie tunes with the social message and her work should be more appreciated. If this single is any indication of what the rest of the EP will be like, I am looking forward to listening to the rest of it.
