Workaholic

Workaholic is a fascinating anomaly in the Oska discography, representing a total pivot toward techno and minimal electronic music. Released in 2019, the EP eschews the singer-songwriter tropes of her more famous work in favor of long-form, instrumental explorations of rhythm and texture. Tracks like 'Skila' and 'Club Mate' clock in at over six minutes, utilizing the patient builds and subtle modulations typical of the Berlin-influenced techno scene. The production is dry and precise, favoring digital clarity over analog warmth. This release serves as a bridge between the artist's early experimental phases and her eventual transition into indie-folk. It is a rare example of a complete genre exercise that succeeds in capturing the sterile, hypnotic atmosphere of late-night industrial spaces. The inclusion of remixes by Jeff Derringer and Rasmus Hedlund further cements its place within the global techno community rather than the folk circuit.
