Lexington, Kentucky based electronic artist Ellie Herring has sent me her new song ‘What To Know’. The track will be included on her debut EP “Flailing in Attraction” which will be released on June 7. ‘What To Know’ is a blends pounding beats with synth flourishes and Herring’s indiscernible fuzzy vocals round out the hypnotizing atmosphere of the track. You can listen to more work by Ellie Herring at her soundcloud and download ‘What To Know’ below.
