No Mana - Space (ft ill-esha)

ellipse (NEW PROJECT) - chapter I

Clandestina

A little while ago, someone posted this hilarious video taken at my show in Lafayette, Indiana. 
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=8f5_1385184962

I was singing live vocals over my talented friend TASO's track "Dio" (original available on Muti Music).
Well both of us were OVERWHELMED with how many requests we got for the "vocal version" that didn't exist!!  So, spurred on by the hilarity, I decided to write lyrics from the point of view of the guy with the trippy lights.  Enjoy!!
LYRICS
I'm trying to meet your gaze
But all of these flashing lights
Are just getting in our way
What will it take to get you home tonight?

This, this is the truth
I dance only for you
And what, what will we do
Cause I heard this place closes at two!

I just want this to last till tomorrow.. till tomorrow
Just one more it really couldn't hurt
Just one more to open up for what it's worth
Girl i got you sweating, don't you calm down
Eyes following me all around

I'm feeling you wearing out
Those sparkles comin' off your face
Girl don't you leave me.. just cause you're coming down
I'll light you up to another place

After the successes of her Open Heart Surgery LP, Canada-to-Colorado transplant ill-esha is back on Gravitas Recordings with a fresh collection of remixes for OHS. In contrast to the pure, heartfelt originals, these thirteen freshly re-imagined versions pack a serious punch, yet manage to maintain a soulful vibe throughout. The sultry songstress commissioned talent from around the world for the release, including Buku, Mr. Bill, Amp Live, and Russ Liquid, plus a ton of Gravitas favorites such as Psymbionic, ChrisB., CloZee, The Digital Connection, Perkulat0r and more. Arriving August 19th, the new album promises something for fans of both ill-esha's vocal prowess as well as her hypnotic, bass-driven beats, and will be available as a pay-what-you-want download.

Bringing a refreshing and electrifying new take on future bass, longtime EDM rebel ill-esha is back and ready to take on the scene in an incredible new way. After showcasing her undeniable talent across multiple instruments at her live sets at South by Southwest, ill-esha incorporates her expansive musical knowledge and range to redefine pop-inspired electronic music. The first single off her upcoming Wordless EP is filled with glorious synths that breeze over the intricate production ill-esha has infused with Kevin Thompson on bass. The Hebinomichi musician and songstress certainly impresses with her flare for creating bright and beautifully produced bangers that exemplify the power and strength ill-esha carries as one of few female producers in the game. “Wordless (ft. Kevin Thompson” is the first single off her forthcoming three-track EP that stands to represent the way ill-esha is ready to take on the music scene.

Whiplash Recovery" is the newest release from bass music guru ill-esha, released March 5th on Gravitas Recordings. Staying true to her roots, the ten track album delivers both rich dubstep and harmonic vocal progressions. Pulsating basslines combine effortlessly with sexy rhythms, which grab the listener from the start and don't let go until the very end. The title track "Whiplash Recovery" is an epic symphonic song with meaning and soul that completes a truly quality album by the one and only bass queen ill-esha.

Dangerous

There are few remaining frontiers on our planet. But perhaps the wildest and least understood are the world’s oceans. Too big to police, and under no clear international authority, these immense regions of treacherous water play host to the unbridled extremes of human behavior — some of it heroic, most of it not. The Outlaw Ocean is a New York Times Best Selling book that explores this lawless realm and the diversity of human rights, labor and environmental abuses occurring at sea. Drawing on more than five years of reporting, most of it offshore, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ian Urbina introduces us to the inhabitants of this world and their risk-fraught lives. A gripping adventure story, a stunning expose, this reportage brings fully into view for the first time the disturbing (and sometimes inspiring) reality of a floating world that connects us all, where anyone can do anything because virtually no one is watching.

Ian has released audio and video recordings from five years of reporting at sea, available to a handpicked number of electronic music artists to create collaborative albums, each focusing on a specific chapter or issue featured within the book.

As a lifetime enthusiast of marine life and environmentalist, I was naturally drawn to the chapter “The Next Frontier”. The story of the delicate war between marine life and human greed, the chapter follows Greenpeace ships as they peacefully protest oil drilling in the Arctic, and seek out evidence of protected marine life to legally halt environmentally irresponsible drilling in Brazil. I pulled their stories together into one narrative, anthropomorphizing the ship to sigh and creak with actual field recordings morphed with samples and wavetables from my own voice.

coral breathing

It's been 23 years since I started performing and releasing music as ill-esha, and I've had a lovely time meeting people around the globe and having wild and diverse adventures.

But neither my high school nickname nor the cruel and unbending genre algorithms fit the direction I've gone, and so I spent this pandemic releasing as many leftover children from the vault as I could. Today I have squeezed in one last song, my 20th song released in 2020 and my last solo release EVER as ill-esha.

I've still got some great collabs to release with artists like @xxstereotypexx , @koyomojo , @klabnz and many others. I'm still going to use this name for what she's evolved into - a music educator, a comedian, a supporter and promoter of gender equality in the industry, a mentor. 

But for pure artistry.. there is another phoenix rising from the ashes. Waiting in the wings. She's been patiently germinating for over three years and it's time to give her my full attention as an artist.

So I humbly ask, if you have enjoyed my music as ill-esha any time in the last 2+ decades, please enjoy this little swan song, a lovely daydream of life as perfect as stock footage.

Also celebrating that I reached over 100,000 monthly listeners for the first time ever on Spotify, so it seems fitting to go out with a bang....
Thank you everyone. I'm not leaving you, just cocooning a new kind of butterfly....

ill-esha ft. ProbCause - Let Me See

Joining forces for their first collaborative effort, K+Lab and ill-esha unleash sublime two-track EP, Simplications. The project finds the two distinctive keytar-wielding artists come full circle to their drum & bass origins as they now put their creative synergy to work in a boundless and experimental release.

Rattling sound design and slithering sonics paves the groundwork for “Complications,” which weaves syrupy vocals over intricate layers. Counterpart “Simplicity” also employs a similar frenzy of syncopated rhythms for its halftime structure, witnessing ill-esha & K+Lab come together for a dreamy, cacophonous paradox.
