CHAINS by Elphi

⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓⛓

The "CHAINS" Mixtape is the culmination of a year and a half's worth of enthusiastic idea sharing, file swapping, and passion for the craft between Elphi and fellow co-producers & collaborators, Shay., Astral Bandit, GooBeats, Jonas LR, & more. This collection of tracks represents a window into Elphi's take on themes of love, loss, reality vs illusion, connectivity vs isolation, identity and what it means to be human in this ever expanding hyper digital & online age we now live in.

[Currently a Bandcamp Exclusive release]

Acknowledgements:

"Thank you to everyone who made this possible. I wouldn't have been able to do this without Shay./Shady Monk. Working with you is always magical. You adapt and evolve so quickly and always stick true to my vision no matter what and I am so grateful for your patience and drive. Creating 'Chains' without ever meeting you IRL not only emulates themes in this project but the time we live in. Thank you for helping my dreams come true." - Elphi

"Working with Elphi through the pandemic and across continents since the tail end of 2020 has been a dream come true. We connected at the perfect time for both of our respective goals and musical endeavors to really take flight, and I've yet to experience such a strong synchronicity with another collaborator to date. The word 'Mutual' feels like an understatement. The level of respect we share for the craft will continue to drive us to push ourselves and one another to greater heights. We're so grateful for all of our friends who aided in the production of this release as well as those who simply support our efforts together, and we can't wait to follow this release up with more amazing music! Thank you all!" - Shay.
