Elohim

Elohim works from Los Angeles as a singer, songwriter, and producer whose output blends sharp hooks with hip-hop textures inside an electropop framework. She surfaced in the second half of the 2010s behind a deliberately obscure persona and atmospheric singles such as “Xanax” and “Sleepy Eyes.” Recognition arrived through a pair of consecutive self-titled projects—an EP in 2016 and a full-length album in 2018—alongside joint work with Skrillex, Quinn XCII, and Whethan. From 2021 onward she issued the introspective EP series Journey to the Center of Myself, whose fourth installment appeared in early 2022. The 2023 track “Stop Time,” shared with Walker & Royce and Glass Petals, preceded further independent releases that included the 2024 single “Tiny Human.”

Valuing creative liberty through concealment, Elohim first withheld her image, altered her voice in conversations, and limited biographical disclosures to a handful of details, among them piano lessons that began at age five and singing that started at nine. Equal parts Rachmaninov and Debussy on one side and Radiohead and Björk on the other shaped a somber strain of synth pop comparable to the work of Lorde and Grimes. Her recorded debut arrived in 2015 with the singles “She Talks Too Much” and “Xanax,” both later included on the 2016 album Elohim. Later that year “Hallucinating” signaled an expanded palette that incorporated horns and a mariachi accent. The 2017 singles “Skinny Legs” and the Whethan collaboration “Sleepy Eyes” reappeared on her second self-titled album, issued in early 2018. Before the year ended, “Connect” surfaced; Skrillex co-produced the track, which OWSLA released. Early 2019 brought “Buckets,” another product of that partnership, while Quinn XCII’s “Holding Hands” featured Elohim’s vocals. In May she issued a deluxe reissue of her debut album containing multiple remixes, and the following week unveiled the EP Braindead, whose songs addressed her mental-health experiences.

Subsequent tracks such as “Group Therapy” and “I’m Lost” continued that thematic focus. In 2021 she initiated the four-part Journey to the Center of Myself project; the first three volumes appeared across the remainder of the year, and Vol. 4 followed in early 2022. Around the same period she teamed with Felix Cartal for “Nothing Good Comes Easy,” the start of additional collaborations that included Travie McCoy, Alex Lustig, and Yoke Lore. After the 2023 single “Stop Time” with Walker & Royce and Glass Petals, she returned to solo material with “Afraid To Fail,” “Broken Face,” and the 2024 release “Tiny Human.”
