Blossoming electronic artist VNCCII is here with her second single of 2020, the captivating drum & bass bomb “Take You Higher.” Along with the new track, VNCCII has also shared a technicolor animated music video, which portrays the Australian prodigy frolicking through digitized meadows as her 3D cyborg avatar. “This song and video represent the avatar’s journey of self-belief and empowerment,” VNCCII told EDM.com. “At the heart of this story, she comes to the epiphany that she should step unapologetically into her true powers, in order to take herself higher.
