Haunting electro-pop production and equally mystifying vocals build up a unique sense of intrigue – singer and songwriter Elizma holds close to a clear creativity identity, for the beautiful and mesmerising What’s in My Head.
Drawing stylistic influence just modestly from the likes of trip hop and even deep house to a degree, the ambiance of What’s in My Head is a huge part of its initial appeal, but so too is the lyrical substance and the finer qualities of Elizma’s voice. It’s a quietly distinct yet compelling sound, dramatic but delicate; poetic and personal all at once.
There’s also a fascinating structure to appreciate – unexpected melodic shifts, changes in tone and reflection. The voice captivates all the while, expressive and unmistakable in meandering through these scenes of vulnerability and realism. The music too, pays tribute to that fluidity and artistry, evolving just subtly throughout this intoxicating mix. And always we resolve back to the looping idea of What’s in My Head.
Brilliantly alluring, aptly imaginative – a song that quickly and rightfully gets you lost within your own thoughts. I look forward to hearing more from Elizma.
