"This new EP marks the next chapter in Kristensen's artistic development, stepping away from the close and personal nature of her previous work, instead reflecting a broader sentiment of the post-pandemic climate. “Cordyceps Disco” is set in a romanticised future, allowing listeners to come to the dancefloor and let go of their fears for the millennium to come; of climate anxiety and hypercapitalism. Lightly inspired by the sci-fi futures in Ray Bradbury and Isaac Asimov novels, and taking its name after the brain-eating fungi in the recent series The Last of Us, “Cordyceps Disco” imagines a future dancefloor where listeners can forget about reality and be completely immersed in a beautifully dark yet uplifting atmosphere.

Showcasing her impeccable sound design skills, this EP transports the listener through Kristensen’s imagined futures, in a playful, yet careful manner. The EP was created in the midst of the dystopian last few years, with a backdrop of constant anxiety of what the world will be like post-pandemic, and as socio-economic and climate catastrophes worsened with each news cycle. Combining an AI’s vocals, with her own made-from-scratch textured samples, Kristensen builds her imaginary club in a retro-futuristic utopia."
