The latest single from artist Foxako, Let Go is a slice of French Touch, utilising bumpy percussion and layered elements to create something fresh from nostalgic components.
Whilst Foxako is based in Vevey in Switzerland, he has always shared the language, cultural and an emotional connection with France and the French Touch sound. With slamming bass and stabs of brass, on Let Go he has a created a dynamic and elastic feel. Filtered guitars provide a funky edge, channelling the work of Daft Punk, which combine with the crunchier feel more akin to the classic Ed Banger sound. Vocals are provided by Foxako’s close friend, AsunaSanchi, who lends the project an additional dose of human emotion.
Coming ahead of a full-length album, planned for 2026, Let Go teases the kind of vibrant kaleidoscopic sound Foxako may create across a broader tapestry. The intention is for that release to come with a 2D animated video, further expanding the canvas of creativity. Here, Foxago releases Let Go with a distinctive visualiser, with AsunaSanchi herself creatively playing a role in the overall video. With such a tightly formulated musical piece on display here, it will be interesting to experience what Foxako does with the space when he has it.
