VNCCII Returns with New Song “Hyper Drive”
Australian singer-songwriter and producer Samantha Tauber, aka VNCCII returned with a new song “Hyper Drive” on July 26, 2024.
The song is her first music in three years since the 2021 song “Level up 2 Nirvana”.
She will publish her debut science fiction novel, described as an “epic space opera” exploring alternate human worlds.
The song is part of an expansive story in which the protagonist is featured in a science fiction space opera immersive musical, based on her novel.
The track was written and produced by Samantha Tauber.
Samantha Tauber said of the song, “'Hyper Drive' is a pop song that I wrote and self-produced. I loved the analogy of 'Hyper Drive' to 'Hyperspace' and it is on brand for the space and science fiction themes of VNCCII.”- Samantha Tauber told Music News about the song, “I produced this song on Ableton Live and recorded the vocals on the condenser Neumann TLM 103 microphone. The song started with the production of the beat. I made this track in Australia a little while ago and I remember creating the beat for the 'drop' of the song and really vibing with its bouncy 808 vibe. The verses then flowed seamlessly with the lyrics and vocal melody after the drop was created. I really enjoyed the process of intricately layering my vocals with harmonies and panning the BV vocals to give an immersive feel.”
She continued, “The song inspiration was based on this vision I had of the VNCCII character in a flying car/hoverboard chase scene in the space opera science fiction universe I had created. In this song, the VNCCII character is like the female 'James Bond' character and is forging ahead, fighting evil, and staying 'on mission' to help humanity.” - source : Apple Music
