Hey techno heads, if you're still recovering from those marathon warehouse sessions or just craving something that hits deep and keeps you locked in, stop everything – ONYVAA just unleashed 'State of Flow', and it's pure dancefloor alchemy. Fresh off its release this month (January 2026), this track (paired with its killer B-side 'Between Worlds') marks her debut on Factory 93 Records, and let me tell you, it's the kind of driving, hypnotic techno that makes you forget the outside world exists.
Picture this: a relentless, pounding kick that pulls you straight into the zone, layered with shimmering, euphoric synth phrases that nod to old-school trance euphoria without ever losing that raw edge. The production feels alive – think crisp bongó fills dancing around screeching oscillators, building tension before dropping you into pure blissed-out intensity. It's stripped-back yet richly textured, blending the soul of Detroit techno with warmer house influences and that unmistakable sense of intention ONYVAA always brings. No filler, just pure movement. If you've been chasing that perfect peak-time groove that feels both timeless and forward-thinking, this is it.
For those new to her sound, ONYVAA (California native, now Paris-based) has been quietly building one of the most exciting careers in modern techno. She's rocked iconic stages from Awakenings and Tomorrowland to Fabric London, Amnesia Ibiza, and HÏ Ibiza, delivering modular live sets and DJ performances that read the room like a sixth sense. Her sound fuses classic techno roots with house warmth and trance euphoria – never chasing trends, always pushing forward. She's already dropped heat on heavy-hitters like Charlotte de Witte’s KNTXT and Richie Hawtin’s Plus 8, toured the world with de Witte herself, and earned shoutouts from legends like Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier, and Hawtin himself, who called her “the future of techno.” Early recognition as Best Newcomer at the DJ Awards in Ibiza? Yeah, her rise feels inevitable.
This new EP on Factory 93 feels like a bold evolution – ONYVAA herself talks about exploring contrasts, where hypnotic techno meets more organic, human-feeling elements. In a scene that's constantly shifting, tracks like 'State of Flow' remind us why underground techno stays so powerful: it's built for bodies moving together, for those moments when everything clicks into flow.
If you haven't spun it yet, queue this up for your next night out – it's already popping up in sets and getting called this weekend's anthem by folks in the know.
