FRNKO Serves a Lush Late-Night Escape on His Addictive New Single “Tastes So Sweet”
Toronto-based producer FRNKO steps confidently into the spotlight with Tastes So Sweet, a sleek, intoxicating electronic single that announces him as one of the most promising new voices emerging from Canada’s underground scene. Influenced by the atmospheric touch of Paul Schulze, the infectious grooves of John Summit, and the experimental edge of Blair Muir, FRNKO blends these inspirations into a sound that feels distinctly his own, fresh, melodic, and effortlessly immersive.
Tastes So Sweet is a night-driving anthem born from frustration with the lack of tracks that truly captured the vibe he craved. Instead of waiting for one to appear, FRNKO built it himself. The song leans into shimmering synths, glossy vocal samples, and a warm, pulsating beat that turns the darkness of the highway into something cinematic. It’s the kind of track that creeps under the skin: airy enough to soothe, rhythmic sufficient to move, and polished enough to signal an artist with serious long-term potential.
What makes this release even more compelling is the story behind it. Working with a tight student budget, FRNKO produced the entire track using BandLab, sourcing pieces from Splice and shaping them with impressive discipline and vision. His determination is unmistakable.
That hunger for growth, paired with raw talent, gives Tastes So Sweet an authenticity that can’t be faked. “When I first heard the sample, I just thought that it would taste so sweet the way I can produce it,” he says, and the final product proves him right. Tastes So Sweet is more than a debut; it’s a promise of what FRNKO can become.
