“Don’t wanna fall into your arms again, don’t wanna give you everything I have and see you walk away…” sings Elisa V as she opens Love of Yesterday with an ethereal timbre and atmospheric vocal production, accompanied by a dimensional bassline, an epic strings arrangement and wood block percussive elements tapping into a high spiritual frequency.
We are immediately enthralled by the unique production of the track. The depth that manifests is tangible, and we feel immersed – taken on a cosmic, dance-pop trip with an avant-garde edge. The violin instrumentation is masterful and the hook is captivating.
There is a cinematic allure to the piece, perfect for a cerebral TV show like Killing Eve, or the final credits of an episode of Nine Perfect Strangers – it is exactly the type of song that they would use for this show! There is even a 007 James Bond vibe that manifests with the track – truly it is a masterpiece!
On her debut, Elisa V confesses, “Coming from a classical background, I always try to push beyond boundaries. After many years of touring across the globe and performing at both classical festivals and party venues, I am starting my career as a releasing artist. Love of Yesterday is a combination of modern dance deep house and a classical violin.”
We learn that Elisa V, also known as Elisa Järvelä, is a classically trained musician from Helsinki’s Sibelius Academy who has toured internationally, performing at prestigious venues and for high-profile audiences including the Pope and royal families. We are grateful that the rising star is sharing her own unique constructs with the world, and look forward to future releases. In the meantime, we have added Love of Yesterday to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS and TRIPPY playlists!
