Co-produced by renowned artists Dexter, Martyn and Steffi, the album offers a very personal insight to her inner self while drawing from club culture's long and rich history. Virginia steps up with her first full-length on Ostgut Ton, playfully answering all questions and rhetorics about love, lust and life with her singing on eleven new songs. The eleven pieces on this longplayer are co-produced by Dutch artists Dexter, Martyn and Steffi, each bringing their individual compositional skills and musical styles to the table, with influences ranging from Funk, Boogie, Disco, UK Garage, Drum and Bass and House. Written and produced during various studio sessions, 'Fierce For The Night' resulted in a broad range of melodies, rhythms and musical moods, while preserving a coherent vibe. Besides the personnel, 'Fierce For The Night' is, music-wise, an album deeply rooted in club culture while staying approachable for listeners that might not be regulars on the dancefloor. A Pop album that playfully defies the schematic formulas of Pop music. There is dancing and muscles being flexed in 'Bally Linny', 'Lies', 'Funkert' and 'Raverd' (both serving as the album's lead-single on 12\" vinyl), \"Follow Me\" and the eponymous \"Fierce For The Night\" - cheerful and energetic songs that can be played out over the course of a club set, but just as well click with home stereo or radio listeners. There are the bouncy, more break-heavy cuts such as '1977' and 'Obstacle'. And there are slower paced, balladesque songs like 'Believe In Time', 'Subdued Colors' and 'Han' that underline the bleak moments of life. All held together by Virginia's soothing, smooth and soulful singing voice. And while all songs have personal stories behind Virginia's songwriting, there is also a classic Pop music narrative: making music approachable and offering meaning that people can connect to their own lives. 'Fierce For The Night' is therefore first and foremost an album about relationships: A very personal reflection of Virginia's own experiences so far, but also about the once intimate, now loose connections between everyday people. Firmly placed in House culture, yet with open arms towards Funk and Pop culture, 'Fierce For The Night' has a basic message: \"Go out, enjoy yourself, loosen up and take what's good for you.\"2LP - Double Vinyl with Download.
