Elvett

Elvett are Lyn (vocals) and Alain (production). They consider themselves crafts(wo)men specialising in the manipulation of sound. They spend their time hybridising the synthetic and the analogue, breathing soul through machines and into words. They merry melodies with textures, space with the humanised idiosyncrasies applied to drum machines. Their songs invoke the pacifist, anticapitalist, pro-nature and the spiritually-inclined. And they are cinematic as hell! And then there’s that voice. Like quicksilver, Lyn mastered the ability to make it shape-shift from the silky and sensual – via the soul-divaesque – to a raspier Betty Davis type of powerful. Plus, it’s strong, unique color makes it perfect for casting spells.
