Setting the stage for her highly anticipated Gatsby-era album, Elena Erin reimagines love and intimacy on the vulnerable premise of establishing a singular, deep connection
Released THIS Friday, November 8 2024
Crafting a distinct sound that seamlessly fuses elements of Alternative, Electronic, and Dance music, Canadian Alt-Pop artist Elena Erin has carved out a musical space all her own. From her small-town roots in northern British Columbia, the Berklee College of Music alumnus soared to #2 on the CBC Top 20 with her track "Build A Ship", racking up over four million streams across platforms. Her Fall 2024 single, "Sick Rick Girl" gained traction across Canada on campus and non-commercial radio, and led to a live musical performance on the YourTV Network. Frequently compared to the likes of Billie Eilish, Halsey, Gwen Stefani, and Cyndi Lauper, Elena Erin combines clever storytelling with a meticulously designed sonic backdrop. Discovered by New York City based music producers who kept her demo vocals on a song originally meant for another artist, Elena Erin found her true artistic path, narrating her journey from small-town life to the heights of the New York elite. Her extraordinary, almost cinematic life experiences translate into universally relatable music, showcasing her remarkable songwriting talent. As she prepares to release her Great Gatsby inspired third studio album, Roaring 20s, in early 2025, Elena Erin shares “Only Kink I Haven't Tried", an atmospherically soft yet gritty song that reevaluates one's relationship with the concept of love. Reimagining relationships in the fast-paced and social media focused dating scene today, Elena Erin's latest track explores the idea of trying something new - focusing on one person, and will be released on Friday, November 8 2024.
Written by Elena Erin and both produced and engineered by Pablo San Martin (Nile Rodgers), “Only Kink I Haven't Tried” was mastered by Grammy, Latin Grammy, and Diamond certified mastering engineer, Alex Psaroudakis.
About "Only Kink I Haven’t Tried":
A delicate and introspective reflection on love, Elena Erin's "Only Kink I Haven’t Tried" reimagines the modern dating narrative with a quiet vulnerability. In a world of fleeting connections and the attractiveness of multiple options, Elena Erin steps back to consider trying something different. Exploring the emotional territory of slowing down and stripping away the superficial thrills of love, the ethereal, piano-led ballad cleverly delves into the idea of intimacy without pretense. Opening with tender, stripped-back vocals and atmospheric melody, "Only Kink I Haven't Tried" skillfully weaves the theme of Elena Erin's forthcoming album, Roaring 20s, into this song, contrasting the image of outer glamour with an internal desire for something real. Set on the premise that after trying everything else, perhaps the only thing left is loving one person completely, the song crescendos with layers of orchestral and Hip-Hop influences in a creative balance that allows the songwriting to shine. As the "Only Kink I Haven’t Tried" fades into the sound of a heart monitor, Elena Erin proves that that love isn't always found in the rush, but in the depths of a singular, true connection.
“‘Only Kink I Haven’t Tried” reimagines the importance of love, the want and need for a companion and love story, and what it looks like when you take away the influence and expectations of society’s view of falling in love.” - Elena Erin
