Konextrax Unleashes ‘What I Want’, A Sonic Dive into A New Signature Style

Konextrax, the Wisconsin-born electronic maestro, has dropped his latest single, ‘What I Want’, and it’s a whirlwind of meticulously crafted sonic textures. For those unfamiliar, Konextrax’s journey began with a childhood obsession with EDM, leading to a professional career launch in 2021. Since then, he’s carved a niche in the underground scene, collaborating with labels like Neoluminum and Seikatsu Records, earning a reputation for his heavy bass and innovative approach.

‘What I Want’ marks the debut of Konextrax’s self-proclaimed “Signature Style”, a bold declaration of artistic identity. As he puts it, this style is “something I can do over and over but also enough room to keep it interesting per-release, something that screams ‘ME’”. This isn't just an artistic boast thought - the track is a testament to his technical prowess. The soundscape is built upon a foundation of pitch mapping, vocoding without routing, chroma, and spectral fractals, all meticulously woven together with a retro-inspired mastering technique. It’s a complex tapestry of sounds, yet it retains a vibrant, danceable energy.

From the very start, the single is a vibrant onslaught of electronic sounds, a finely tuned and undeniably energetic medley that has been compressed into an unassailable experience. Konextrax’s vocal processing adds a layer of intrigue, breaking through the neon glow of the track with a high-pitched, vocoded effect, mixed with an intense robotic autotune. The effect is unique, building an almost ethereal quality that underscores it all, elevating the track beyond a simple club banger.

Released through his own Frozen Fox Records, now a sub-label of Electrostep Network, ‘What I Want’ is a confident step forward for Konextrax. It's a demonstration of his technical abilities and a clear statement of his artistic vision. The track offers a fresh, exciting take on electronic music, one that is both innovative and undeniably dance-worthy. For fans of forward-thinking EDM, ‘What I Want’ is a must-listen.
