Our Take

ELAN VITAL's latest album "Shadow Self" is a kaleidoscopic journey through the depths of the human psyche, blending haunting melodies with infectious beats in a way that only this enigmatic duo can pull off. From the moment the pulsating synths of "Mirror Mirror" kick in, it's clear that ELAN VITAL are taking us on a sonic rollercoaster that we won't soon forget.

Lead vocalist Luna's ethereal vocals float effortlessly over the lush electronic soundscapes crafted by synth wizard Orion, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is equal parts hypnotic and exhilarating. Tracks like "Phantom Limb" and "Twilight Zone" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend genres, effortlessly flitting between dreamy synth-pop and gritty industrial beats.

But it's not all heavy brooding on "Shadow Self" - tracks like "Bubblegum Dreams" and "Neon Lights" inject a sense of playful nostalgia into the mix, with infectious hooks that will have you bopping along in no time. ELAN VITAL have truly outdone themselves with this album, pushing the boundaries of electronic music while still retaining their signature quirkiness and charm.

In a world full of cookie-cutter pop acts, ELAN VITAL are a breath of fresh air - unapologetically weird, endlessly creative, and always keeping us on our toes. "Shadow Self" is a testament to their unparalleled talent and creativity, and cements their status as one of the most exciting acts to emerge in recent years. Don't sleep on this album - it's a wild ride from start to finish, and one that you definitely don't want to miss.
