The duo’s four-track release merges the vocal and production expertise of the two artists
‘Flight 401’ is the latest release from Italy-based producer, Riccardo Ricci in collaboration with up-and-coming Miami vocalist Miluhska. Ricci has had a love for electronic music since the age of 16 when he first discovered the genre, after playing piano for several years as a child. As a multi-instrumental artist, Ricci is influenced by artists including Toman, Chris Stussy, Anotr, Rossi, Djoko, and Weird. After moving to Turin in 2012—a city with a rising underground scene at the time—Ricci played in historical clubs across the city. This release marks his first collaboration with Miluhska, a DJ, vocalist, and composer who has performed at venues across Miami. She is the founder of Zpecial Invite and is a member of the collaborative trio, Roujeee Tunes.
Ricardo Ricci had several EP releases this year already, including ‘Deepsoul,’ featuring a collaboration with Tommaso Pizzelli, ‘Space Hunter,’ featuring a collaboration with Mirko Bonfitto, ‘MoskoSky,’ ‘Reality,’ featuring collaborations with MAX LANE, and ‘Like That,’ featuring collaborations with Alex Dam and Zambiancki. Previously, he released EPs and singles including ‘Burning,’ ‘Midnight Dancefloor,’ ‘THC,’ and ‘Flower.’ Earlier this year, Miluhska released single ‘Biscayne Lady’ in collaboration with Odd Ones Out and coupe Melba.
Ricci and Miluhska’s EP includes four tracks, merging their capacities for dream-like vocals, heavy baselines, and ethereal synths. As a producer who explores his feelings and previous experiences through his music, Ricci’s sound references aspects of tech house, minimal, and deep genres. This, combined with Miluhska’s incorporation of house, R&B, hip-hop, and reggeaton, make for a dynamic and powerful EP. The first two tracks, ‘Flight 401’ and then a Thurman Remix of the track, feature the elegant, airy, and celestial voice of Miluhska overlaid onto a bouncy base rhythm. The final two tracks, ‘Tango 207’ and its remix, are solo tracks from Ricci and feature a heavier bass, a climactic build, and a more futuristic sound.
